[ Upstream commit 56e2c94f055d328f5f6b0a5c1721cca2f2d4e0a1 ] We currently check current frags memory usage only when a new frag queue is created. This allows attackers to first consume the memory budget (default : 4 MB) creating thousands of frag queues, then sending tiny skbs to exceed high_thresh limit by 2 to 3 order of magnitude. Note that before commit 648700f76b03 ("inet: frags: use rhashtables for reassembly units"), work queue could be starved under DOS, getting no cpu cycles. After commit 648700f76b03, only the per frag queue timer can eventually remove an incomplete frag queue and its skbs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
