From 7e40d9705de5e94ff64684573c573deb97950b5e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] kernel-netlink: Use the PAGE_SIZE as default for the netlink
receive buffer
The kernel uses NLMSG_GOODSIZE as default buffer size, which defaults to
the PAGE_SIZE if it is lower than 8192 or to that value otherwise.
In some cases (e.g. for dump messages) the kernel might use up to 16k
for messages, which might require increasing this value.
