How can I increase the TCP listen backlog value of a socket when the application has a hardcoded value?
Issue
- The application has a hard coded value for the listen backlog that cannot be changed via its configuration file
- We need the value to be larger
- Application changes will take too long
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
- TCP application with hard-coded
listen()
backlog parameter
