This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled udp: ipv4: do not waste time in __udp4_lib_mcast_demux_lookup to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.6. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From d34126277484f446b7933a59fe7156e4c6e690c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2014 16:13:06 -0700 Subject: udp: ipv4: do not waste time in __udp4_lib_mcast_demux_lookup [ Upstream commit 63c6f81cdde58c41da62a8d8a209592e42a0203e ] Its too easy to add thousand of UDP sockets on a particular bucket, and slow down an innocent multicast receiver. Early demux is supposed to be an optimization, we should avoid spending too much time in it. It is interesting to note __udp4_lib_demux_lookup() only tries to match first socket in the chain. 10 is the threshold we already have in __udp4_lib_lookup() to switch to secondary hash.
