From ed2dfd900992aa7b6b3d0abd8ec9a7e9d2c7f827 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 27 May 2015 11:34:37 -0700 Subject: tcp/dccp: warn user for preferred ip_local_port_range After commit 07f4c90062f8f ("tcp/dccp: try to not exhaust ip_local_port_range in connect()") it is advised to have an even number of ports described in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range This means start/end values should have a different parity. Let's warn sysadmins of this, so that they can update their settings if they want to. Suggested-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
