Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: shorten reassembly timeout under fragment memory
  pressure

Under heavy IPv6 fragmentation, incomplete fragment queues may persist
for the full reassembly timeout even when fragment memory is under
pressure.

This can lead to prolonged retention of fragment queues that are unlikely
to complete, causing newly arriving fragmented packets to be dropped due
to memory exhaustion.

Introduce an optional mechanism to shorten the IPv6 reassembly timeout
when fragment memory usage exceeds the low threshold. Different timeout
values are applied depending on the upper-layer protocol to balance
eviction speed and completion probability.

Hello,

isn't this what net.ipv6.ip6frag_time does? In addition, the situation 
you described could be overcome by increasing the memory thresholds at 
net.ipv6.ip6frag_low_thresh and net.ipv6.ip6frag_high_thresh.

Please, let me know if I am missing something.

Thanks,
Fernando.
