O would propose a max alloc size (hard limit) of ~8 MByte of vmalloc space, or maybe 16 at most. 1048576 max upperlimit -> ~8mbyte vmalloc request -> allows to store up to 2**23 entries. In order to prevent breaking userspace, perhaps make it so that the kernel caps cfg.max at twice that value? Would allow storing up to 16777216 addresses with an average chain depth of 16 (which is quite large). We could increase the max limit in case someone presents a use case. What do you think?
