Hi
I'm having memory problems using ipfilter. I have a lot of rules, and a
lot of traffic,
here is what i have from time to time :
IP states added:
9469918 TCP
1654588 UDP
1451233 ICMP
2869559782 hits
100258517 misses
0 maximum
72605 no memory
2915 bkts in use
9766 active
3099381 expired
9393987 closed
and that, because ipfilter uses the temp memory zone, which is used by
many other kernel stuff, and sometime gets full.
in ip_state.h, I found :
# ifdef M_PFIL
# define KMALLOC(a, b) MALLOC((a), b, sizeof(*(a)), M_PFIL,
M_NOWAIT)
# define KMALLOCS(a, b, c) MALLOC((a), b, (c), M_PFIL,
M_NOWAIT)
# define KFREE(x) FREE((x), M_PFIL)
# define KFREES(x,s) FREE((x), M_PFIL)
# else
# define KMALLOC(a, b) MALLOC((a), b, sizeof(*(a)), M_TEMP,
M_NOWAIT)
# define KMALLOCS(a, b, c) MALLOC((a), b, (c), M_TEMP,
M_NOWAIT)
# define KFREE(x) FREE((x), M_TEMP)
# define KFREES(x,s) FREE((x), M_TEMP)
# endif /* M_PFIL */
I was wondering if it was possible to add some
MALLOC_DEFINE(M_PFIL, "ipfilter", "some bigger description");
or
static MALLOC_DEFINE(M_PFIL, "ipfilter", "some bigger description");
but I do not know where to put it, neither which one to use, as both are
used in the kernel source tree.
Some help would really be appreciated.
