From 31fe62b9586643953f0c0c37a6357dafc69034e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Bird Date: Wed, 23 May 2012 13:33:35 +0000 Subject: mm: add a low limit to alloc_large_system_hash UDP stack needs a minimum hash size value for proper operation and also uses alloc_large_system_hash() for proper NUMA distribution of its hash tables and automatic sizing depending on available system memory. On some low memory situations, udp_table_init() must ignore the alloc_large_system_hash() result and reallocs a bigger memory area. As we cannot easily free old hash table, we leak it and kmemleak can issue a warning. This patch adds a low limit parameter to alloc_large_system_hash() to solve this problem. We then specify UDP_HTABLE_SIZE_MIN for UDP/UDPLite hash table allocation. Reported-by: Mark Asselstine Reported-by: Tim Bird Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S.
