[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit. $ arp -d 192.168.20.108 ; ping -c 2 -s 8000 192.168.20.108 PING 192.168.20.108 (192.168.20.108) 8000(8028) bytes of data. 8008 bytes from 192.168.20.108: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.322 ms Signed-off-by: David S.

* neigh: Allow for user space users of the neighbour tableEric Biederman2009-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently it is possible to do just about everything with the arp table from user space except treat an entry like you are using it. To that end implement and a flag NTF_USE that when set in a netwlink update request treats the neighbour table entry like the kernel does on the output path. This allows user space applications to share the kernel's arp cache. Signed-off-by: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NEIGH]: Move netlink neighbour bits to linux/neighbour.hThomas Graf2006-09-22
Moves netlink neighbour bits to linux/neighbour.h. Also moves bits to be exported to userspace from net/neighbour.h to linux/neighbour.h and removes __KERNEL__ guards, userspace is not supposed to be using it. rtnetlink_rcv_msg() is not longer required to parse attributes for the neighbour layer, remove dependency on obsolete and buggy rta_buf.
