In my testing of nftables sets for our netdev bof discussion I came
across this problem where if I try and do a set restore of 1M entries
the machine gets into a softlockup state. Once this is triggered the
system has to be rebooted.
I can trigger the case by generating a simple nft rules file which
defines a set of type ipv4_addr. Something like this:
flush ruleset
table ip filter {
set blackhole {
type ipv4_addr
}
chain input {
type filter hook input priority 0;
}
chain forward {
type filter hook forward priority 0;
}
chain output {
type filter hook output priority 0;
}
}
except inside the set definition above I add 1M random ipv4 addresses.
Running "nft -f <filename>" will reproduce the problem. I also saw this
when trying to do a restore of 250k entries.
There are a few problems going on from what I can tell. The first is
the set defaults to 4 buckets and during restores the # of buckets does
not increase. I'm currently investigating to understand why we don't
expand the set on restores. However my guess into why we're
softlockuping here is that we're trying to shove 1M entries into 4
buckets :)
Second, the user has no way to tune the # of initial buckets. My
patchset "nft hash set expansion fixes" fixes this. If I tune the hash
to use a reasonable # of buckets for 1M entries. I do not see the
softlockup problem.
I ran these tests using the current net-next.
Here's some of the softlockup output. Let me know if you'd like more
info, etc.
