我碰到了ip_dst_cache overflow的情况，尤其在病毒非常猖獗的情况下...
/proc/slabinfo中的ip_dst_cache会一直增长下去，即使在用户没有使用该linux router的情况下，也不会减少...
到网上搜了很多帖子，没看见有国人讨论，都是foreigner碰到的这些问题 .....
在ChinaUnix上发帖子，没人回答，linuxsir更专业一些，希望有高人指点，谢谢，

Hello
We have about 25 systems that receive data via a pci DVB card from satellite.
The data is received through multiple muticast streams by some closed
source software. On all systems we notice that the free memory decreases
until in most cases the system are no longer reachable via network. They
then constantly print out: dst cache overflow. But I also have noticed that
some systems lock up hard, I assume this is because we just increase
the ip_dst_cache in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/max_size to some very
large value.
I also know that the German Telekom and Eumetsat have the same problems
and always have to reboot their systems. I also have reports from Austria
and expect many more systems in Europe are effected.
To get more information I have setup 3 systems with different kernels and
hardware and noticed that over the time ip_dst_cache and skbuff_head_cache
in /proc/slabinfo always increase. They never go down. Also one or more of
the of the size-x values always increase depending on the kernel and DVB
card being used. Here some more slabinfo details and hardware being used:
System1 : PIII 450MHz, 256MB ram, Kernel 2.4.23-pre9, pent@value DVB card
System2 : PII 350MHz, 384MB ram, Kernel 2.4.21, pent@value DVB card
System3 : P4 2.4GHz with HT enabled, 1 GB ram (high mem enabled),
Kernel 2.4.23-rc1 and libata patch, Nova-S DVB card
Now the slabinfo data every 24 hours:

There is much more data available, the full slabinfo was taken every
hour for each system. Additionally with the help of Jörn Engel I managed
to setup System1 with gcov kernel patch and have all data available on
an hourly basis until the system has reached "dst cache overflow". I have
tried very hard to evaluate this data myself, but find that the linux
network code is way beyond my c programming knowledge.
Another thing noticed is that as the memory usage increases the systems
become slower, when you log in on them and work there.
Has anyone any suggestion of what else I can do to narrow down the problem?
What I am also not sure if it is correct to assume the bug in the ipv4
multicast implementation, or can it still be a driver problem? But I assume
two completely different drivers make this very unlikely.
Please, can someone help me to find the bug. I am willing to do any tests
or provide more information.
Thanks,
Holger
PS: Please cc me, since I am not on the list.
状况是在ip_dst_cache到达/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/max_size规定的最大值之后，kernel不停打印dst cache overflow到标准输出... |
