inet: frags: break the 2GB limit for frags storage
Some users are willing to provision huge amounts of memory to be able to perform reassembly reasonnably well under pressure. Current memory tracking is using one atomic_t and integers. Switch to atomic_long_t so that 64bit arches can use more than 2GB, without any cost for 32bit arches. Note that this patch avoids an overflow error, if high_thresh was set to ~2GB, since this test in inet_frag_alloc() was never true : if (... || frag_mem_limit(nf) > nf->high_thresh) Tested: $ echo 16000000000 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_high_thresh <frag DDOS> $ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat FRAG: inuse 14705885 memory 16000002880 $ nstat -n ; sleep 1 ; nstat | grep Reas IpReasmReqds 3317150 0.0 IpReasmFails 3317112 0.0 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
