[Bernhard Reutner-Fischer]

commit: http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/commit/?id=23abbfa633f7e017a7939aa3966e0d7d24df480d
branch: http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Test on Linux 3.16.1 in Qemu ARM fails with:
 TEST_EXEC nptl/ tst-cancel4
ret == 1 ; expected_ret == 0
make[1]: *** [tst-cancel4.exe] Error 1
The output of failed test is:
minimum write buffer size too large
../Test.mak:89: recipe for target 'tst-cancel4.exe' failed

+/* The WRITE_BUFFER_SIZE value needs to be chosen such that if we set
+   the socket send buffer size to '1', a write of this size on that
+   socket will block.
+
+   The Linux kernel imposes a minimum send socket buffer size which
+   has changed over the years.  As of Linux 3.10 the value is:
+
+     2 * (2048 + SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct sk_buff)))
+
+   which is attempting to make sure that with standard MTUs,
+   TCP can always queue up at least 2 full sized packets.
+
+   Furthermore, there is logic in the socket send paths that
+   will allow one more packet (of any size) to be queued up as
+   long as some socket buffer space remains.   Blocking only
+   occurs when we try to queue up a new packet and the send
+   buffer space has already been fully consumed.
+
+   Therefore we must set this value to the largest possible value of
+   the formula above (and since it depends upon the size of "struct
+   sk_buff", it is dependent upon machine word size etc.) plus some
+   slack space.  */
