The listen overflow should only increment when the 3-way handshake completion is aborted because the listening socket limit is exceeded, which is entirely different from the embryonic limit. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
