libbinder: RPC cap transaction size at 100KB
Why? - Android code uses -fno-exceptions and generally doesn't check for OOM conditions (unlike the Linux kernel itself!). Even if we check for allocation success, a successful allocation here may mean even a 1 byte allocation on another thread or by the server will cause a failure. - kernel binder can have by default 1MB of concurrent transactions at a time. A transaction of size 100KB is already exceedingly dangerous to the runtime, since in a big process, this could cause other processes to reach the limit. In the future, we could increase this cap (lowering is potentially difficult) or make it customizable.
