[ 33/48] net: sysctl_net_core: check SNDBUF and RCVBUF for min length

[Willy Tarreau]

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexey Kodanev <alexey.kodanev@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b1cb59cf2efe7971d3d72a7b963d09a512d994c9 ]

sysctl has sysctl.net.core.rmem_*/wmem_* parameters which can be
set to incorrect values. Given that 'struct sk_buff' allocates from
rcvbuf, incorrectly set buffer length could result to memory
allocation failures. For example, set them as follows:

    # sysctl net.core.rmem_default=64
      net.core.wmem_default = 64
    # sysctl net.core.wmem_default=64
      net.core.wmem_default = 64
    # ping localhost -s 1024 -i 0 > /dev/null

This could result to the following failure:

skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff81628db4 len:-32 put:-32
