I have been reading some articles about TCP implementation on Linux and I got confused, what is the difference between net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog
and net.core.somaxconn
and the backlog
passed as parameter to listen()
system call, and what is the relation between them.
P.S. I want explanation for kernel 4.15 because I found that there are some differences between oldest and newer kernels on this subject.
