This patchset enables to hash more policies than just non-prefixed ones: hash policies whose prefix lengths are greater or equal to configurable thresholds. These thresholds are configured via netlink message XFRM_MSG_NEWSPDINFO, attributes XFRMA_SPD_IPV4_HTHRESH and XFRMA_SPD_IPV6_HTHRESH. The related iproute2 patch for configuring the thresholds is available on demand. Best Regards, Christophe ---- v2: - change configuration API from proc to netlink v3: - initialize xfrm_policy_hthresh lock - remove "rebuilding SPD hash table" log - replace deprecated hlist_add_after by hlist_add_behind - remove netlink reply to XFRM_MSG_NEWSPDINFO request --- include/net/netns/xfrm.h | 14 +++++++ include/net/xfrm.h | 1 + include/uapi/linux/xfrm.h | 7 ++++ net/xfrm/xfrm_hash.h | 76 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c | 140 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c | 83 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 6 files changed, 302 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-)
