Each unseen\nid allocates an mr_table via the shared mr_table_alloc(), links it\ninto the per-net list, and leaves it until netns teardown. Those\nobjects were not charged to memcg, so the host unreclaimable slab\ngrows with the table count.\n\nAccount mr_table allocations with GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT and mark the\nIPv4/IPv6 MFC caches SLAB_ACCOUNT. This matches the established\nhandling of IP addresses, routes and alternate interface names.\n\nUnresolved MFC entries are still allocated from softIRQ with\nGFP_ATOMIC and are not charged. They expire after 10 seconds and are\nbounded by the socket receive queue; see commit 0079ad8e8dc3\n(\"ipmr: remove hard code cache_resolve_queue_len limit\").","cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"cvssVector":null,"cwes":[],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0264b3ee09b118fec8a5471b4ca288f8ab84722f","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b7ee18725f2292ab554aa96a101ae42d45f008bd","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d0a2e2a4ee6bfe51e398bfb6921a7d0f4c26bc1c","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
