We added an automatic route cache rebuilding in commit 1080d709
but had to correct few bugs. One of the assumption of original patch,
was that entries where kept sorted in a given way.

This assumption is known to be wrong (commit 1ddbcb00 gave an
explanation of this and corrected a leak) and expensive to respect.

Paweł Staszewski reported to me one of his machine got its routing cache
disabled after few messages like :

[ 2677.850065] Route hash chain too long!
[ 2677.850080] Adjust your secret_interval!
[82839.662993] Route hash chain too long!
[82839.662996] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.731650] Route hash chain too long!

disabled
[155843.858212] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.858213] Adjust your secret_interval!

This is because rt_intern_hash() might be fooled when computing a chain
length, because multiple entries with same keys can differ because of
TOS (or mark/oif) bits.

In the rare case the fast algorithm see a too long chain, and before
taking expensive path, we call a helper function in order to not count
duplicates of same routes, that only differ with tos/mark/oif bits. This
helper works with data already in cpu cache and is not be very
expensive, despite its O(N^2) implementation.

Paweł Staszewski sucessfully tested this patch on his loaded router.

Debatable -- the current comment is located at the callsite of
ops->get_sset_count(), which is where an implementor might think to add
a new call.  Not all the numeric fields in ethtool_drvinfo are obtained
from ->get_sset_count().

Hence the "some" in the attached patch to include/linux/ethtool.h,
addressing your comment.

We got system OOM while running some UDP netperf testing on the loopback
device. The case is multiple senders sent stream UDP packets to a single
receiver via loopback on local host. Of course, the receiver is not able
to handle all the packets in time. But we surprisingly found that these
packets were not discarded due to the receiver's sk->sk_rcvbuf limit.
Instead, they are kept queuing to sk->sk_backlog and finally ate up all
the memory. We believe this is a secure hole that a none privileged user
can crash the system.

The root cause for this problem is, when the receiver is doing
__release_sock() (i.e. after userspace recv, kernel udp_recvmsg ->
skb_free_datagram_locked -> release_sock), it moves skbs from backlog to
sk_receive_queue with the softirq enabled. In the above case, multiple
busy senders will almost make it an endless loop. The skbs in the
backlog end up eat all the system memory.

The issue is not only for UDP. Any protocols using socket backlog is
potentially affected. The patch adds limit for socket backlog so that
the backlog size cannot be expanded endlessly.
