560050ee05SManfred Spraul  * MSGMNI, MSGMAX and MSGMNB are default values which can be

580050ee05SManfred Spraul  *
590050ee05SManfred Spraul  * MSGMNI is the upper limit for the number of messages queues per
600050ee05SManfred Spraul  * namespace.
610050ee05SManfred Spraul  * It has been chosen to be as large possible without facilitating
620050ee05SManfred Spraul  * scenarios where userspace causes overflows when adjusting the limits via
630050ee05SManfred Spraul  * operations of the form retrieve current limit; add X; update limit".
640050ee05SManfred Spraul  *
650050ee05SManfred Spraul  * MSGMNB is the default size of a new message queue. Non-root tasks can
660050ee05SManfred Spraul  * decrease the size with msgctl(IPC_SET), root tasks
670050ee05SManfred Spraul  * (actually: CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) can both increase and decrease the queue
680050ee05SManfred Spraul  * size. The optimal value is application dependent.
690050ee05SManfred Spraul  * 16384 is used because it was always used (since 0.99.10)
700050ee05SManfred Spraul  *
710050ee05SManfred Spraul  * MAXMAX is the maximum size of an individual message, it's a global
720050ee05SManfred Spraul  * (per-namespace) limit that applies for all message queues.
730050ee05SManfred Spraul  * It's set to 1/2 of MSGMNB, to ensure that at least two messages fit into
740050ee05SManfred Spraul  * the queue. This is also an arbitrary choice (since 2.6.0).
