ipv4: avoid quadratic behavior in netns dismantle
net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c uses an hash table of 256 slots, keyed by device ifindexes: fib_info_devhash[DEVINDEX_HASHSIZE] Problem is that with network namespaces, devices tend to use the same ifindex. lo device for instance has a fixed ifindex of one, for all network namespaces. This means that hosts with thousands of netns spend a lot of time looking at some hash buckets with thousands of elements, notably at netns dismantle. Simply add a per netns perturbation (net_hash_mix()) to spread elements more uniformely. Also change fib_devindex_hashfn() to use more entropy. Fixes: aa79e66 ("net: Make ifindex generation per-net namespace") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <[email protected]>
