+udp_mem - vector of 3 INTEGERs: min, pressure, max
+       Number of pages allowed for queueing by all UDP sockets.
+
+       min: Below this number of pages UDP is not bothered about its
+       memory appetite. When amount of memory allocated by UDP exceeds
+       this number, UDP starts to moderate memory usage.
+
+       pressure: This value was introduced to follow format of tcp_mem.
+
+       max: Number of pages allowed for queueing by all UDP sockets.
+
+       Default is calculated at boot time from amount of available memory.
+
+udp_rmem_min - INTEGER
+       Minimal size of receive buffer used by UDP sockets in moderation.
+       Each UDP socket is able to use the size for receiving data, even if
+       total pages of UDP sockets exceed udp_mem pressure. The unit is byte.
