    packet: rollover huge flows before small flows · 3b3a5b0a
    Willem de Bruijn 提交于
    Migrate flows from a socket to another socket in the fanout group not
    only when the socket is full. Start migrating huge flows early, to
    divert possible 4-tuple attacks without affecting normal traffic.
    
    Introduce fanout_flow_is_huge(). This detects huge flows, which are
    defined as taking up more than half the load. It does so cheaply, by
    storing the rxhashes of the N most recent packets. If over half of
    these are the same rxhash as the current packet, then drop it. This
    only protects against 4-tuple attacks. N is chosen to fit all data in
    a single cache line.
    
    Tested:
      Ran bench_rollover for 10 sec with 1.5 Mpps of single flow input.
    
        lpbb5:/export/hda3/willemb# ./bench_rollover -l 1000 -r -s
