* Maximum length of sync pipe message data. Must be < 2^24, as the
* message length is 3 bytes.
* XXX - this must be large enough to handle a Really Big Filter
* Expression, as the error message for an incorrect filter expression
* is a bit larger than the filter expression, and large enough to
* handle a large interface list.
* 4096 is a typical PIPE_BUF size for atomic writes, but we should have
* only one writer and one reader so that shouldn't be an issue.
