[BUG] stream_sock: BUF_INFINITE_FORWARD broke splice on 64-bit platforms
Yohan Tordjman at Dstorage found that upgrading haproxy to 1.4-dev4
caused truncated objects to be returned. An strace quickly exhibited
the issue which was 100% reproducible :
This is caused by the fact that the forward length is taken from
BUF_INFINITE_FORWARD, which is -1. The problem does not appear
in 32-bit mode because this value is first cast to an unsigned
long, truncating it to 32-bit (4 GB). Setting an upper bound
fixes the issue.
Also, a second error check has been added for splice. If EINVAL
is returned, we fall back to recv().
