OK, so you are saying that the Netlink limit is too low? Then let's fix that. You are claiming that the rhashtable convertion removed a cap. I'm not seeing such a change. Can you point me to where netlink_insert() enforced a cap pre-rhashtable? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
