commitd07418afeaupstream. net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c uses an hash table of 256 slots, keyed by device ifindexes: fib_info_devhash[DEVINDEX_HASHSIZE] Problem is that with network namespaces, devices tend to use the same ifindex. lo device for instance has a fixed ifindex of one, for all network namespaces. This means that hosts with thousands of netns spend a lot of time looking at some hash buckets with thousands of elements, notably at netns dismantle. Simply add a per netns perturbation (net_hash_mix()) to spread elements more uniformely. Also change fib_devindex_hashfn() to use more entropy.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
