Socket recvfrom buffer too small for receiving responses to large ICMP echo requests about icmplib HOT 6 OPEN

Hi @sjaddd,

Thank you for your very detailed issue! A fix will be released in the next version.

I think the buffer size should depend on the size of the request sent to avoid unnecessary memory consumption. Alternatively, I can also offer users the option to set the buffer size. I have to do some tests.

Great, thanks - looking forward to the next release 😃

Hi @ValentinBELYN,

great library! There have been multiple releases since. Is the issue fixed?

Hi @pyfisch,

Unfortunately this issue is not fixed. I haven't had time to take care of this project lately but I plan to resume development this weekend for a release next week at the latest.

No problem. I planned to use the library to send large pings but now I don't need to do that anymore.

@ValentinBELYN Can you please let me know if there is a plan to add buffer size to the receive api ? We need this for one of our use case.
