//
// https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/813...
//
// I suspect a 128kB sysconf(_SC_ARG_MAX) is the sanest bet, simply
// because of that "conservative is better than aggressive".
//
// Especially since _technically_ we're still limiting things to that
// 128kB due to the single-string limit.

// Linus
//
// In practice that caused us trouble with toybox tests for xargs
// edge cases. The tests assume that they can at least reach the
// kernel's "minimum maximum" of 128KiB, but if we report 128KiB for
// _SC_ARG_MAX and xargs starts subtracting the environment space
// and so on from that, then xargs will think it's run out of space
// when given 128KiB of data, which should always work. See this
// thread for more:
//
// http://lists.landley.net/pipermail/toybox-landley.net/2019-November/011229.html
//
// So let's resign ourselves to tracking what the kernel actually
// does. Right now (2019, Linux 5.3) that amounts to:
