Subject: [PATCH] net-tcp: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval is a u32 not int
Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2018 21:59:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180926045928.94911-1-zenczykowski@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <95f0f122-9964-28c5-2c7c-72309c095e62@gmail.com>

From: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com>

(fix documentation and sysctl access to treat it as such)

Tested:
  # zcat /proc/config.gz | egrep ^CONFIG_HZ
  CONFIG_HZ_1000=y
  CONFIG_HZ=1000
  # echo $[(1<<32)/1000 + 1] | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval
  4294968
  tee: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval: Invalid argument
  # echo $[(1<<32)/1000] | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval
  4294967
  # echo 0 | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval
  # echo -1 | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval
  -1
  tee: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval: Invalid argument
