One use case of PACKET_FANOUT is lockless reception with one socket per CPU. 256 is a practical limit on increasingly many machines. Increase PACKET_FANOUT_MAX to 64K. Expand setsockopt PACKET_FANOUT to take an extra argument max_num_members. Also explicitly define a fanout_args struct, instead of implicitly casting to an integer. This documents the API and simplifies the control flow. If max_num_members is not specified or is set to 0, then 256 is used, same as before.

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.
