Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net: speedup netns dismantles From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> In this series, I made network namespace deletions more scalable, by 4x on the little benchmark described in this cover letter. - Remove bottleneck on ipv6 addrconf, by replacing a global hash table to a per netns one. - Rework many (struct pernet_operations)->exit() handlers to exit_batch() ones. This removes many rtnl acquisitions, and gives to cleanup_net() kind of a priority over rtnl ownership. Tested on a host with 24 cpus (48 HT) Test script: for nr in {1..10} do (for i in {1..10000}; do unshare -n /bin/bash -c "ifconfig lo up"; done) & done wait for i in {1..10} do sleep 1 echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches grep net_namespace /proc/slabinfo done Before: We can see host struggles to clean the netns, even after there are no new creations. Memory cost is high, because each netns consumes a good amount of memory. time ./unshare10.sh net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 82634 82634 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 82634 82634 0 net_namespace 37214 37792 3968 1 1 : tunables 24 12 8 : slabdata 37214 37792 192 real 6m57.766s user 3m37.277s sys 40m4.826s After: We can see the script completes much faster, the kernel thread doing the cleanup_net() keeps up just fine.
