Right. And it's not just the set size function that changes the value (it wasn't in this case) so it's not sufficient to say that there is a generic function to set the size. That only applies to the hashtable in the global init_net anyway, changing the hashtable sizes and then leaving the existing hashes as they were. Additionally, the size is writeable in the module sysfs entry. So it's not read only, even though I agree that the procfs visable entry is. I really think this does need fixing, and I'm not just being a pain in the ass - I have another issue here clearly with memory corruption, but the need for this to be cleaned up is real.
