  54 * MSGMNI, MSGMAX and MSGMNB are default values which can be
  55 * modified by sysctl.
  56 *
  57 * MSGMNI is the upper limit for the number of messages queues per
  58 * namespace.
  59 * It has been chosen to be as large possible without facilitating
  60 * scenarios where userspace causes overflows when adjusting the limits via
  61 * operations of the form retrieve current limit; add X; update limit".
  62 *
  63 * MSGMNB is the default size of a new message queue. Non-root tasks can
  64 * decrease the size with msgctl(IPC_SET), root tasks
  65 * (actually: CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) can both increase and decrease the queue
  66 * size. The optimal value is application dependent.
  67 * 16384 is used because it was always used (since 0.99.10)
  68 *
  69 * MAXMAX is the maximum size of an individual message, it's a global
  70 * (per-namespace) limit that applies for all message queues.
  71 * It's set to 1/2 of MSGMNB, to ensure that at least two messages fit into
  72 * the queue. This is also an arbitrary choice (since 2.6.0).
