Alex Xu (Hello71) ac23a17381 pipe: increase minimum default pipe size to 2 pages
commit 46c4c9d1beb7f5b4cec4dd90e7728720583ee348 upstream.

This program always prints 4096 and hangs before the patch, and always
prints 8192 and exits successfully after:

  int main()
  {
      int pipefd[2];
      for (int i = 0; i < 1025; i++)
          if (pipe(pipefd) == -1)
              return 1;
      size_t bufsz = fcntl(pipefd[1], F_GETPIPE_SZ);
      printf("%zd\n", bufsz);
      char *buf = calloc(bufsz, 1);
      write(pipefd[1], buf, bufsz);
      read(pipefd[0], buf, bufsz-1);
      write(pipefd[1], buf, 1);
  }

Note that you may need to increase your RLIMIT_NOFILE before running the
program.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
