Eric Dumazet says: ==================== tcp/dccp: better use of ephemeral ports Big servers have bloated bind table, making very hard to succeed ephemeral port allocations, without special containers/namespace tricks. This patch series extends the strategy added in commit 07f4c900 ("tcp/dccp: try to not exhaust ip_local_port_range in connect()"). Since ports used by connect() are much likely to be shared among them, we give a hint to both bind() and connect() to keep the crowds separated if possible. Of course, if on a specific host an application needs to allocate ~30000 ports using bind(), it will still be able to do so. Same for ~30000 connect() to a unique 2-tuple (dst addr, dst port) New implemetation is also more friendly to softirqs and reschedules. v2: rebase after TCP SO_REUSEPORT changes ==================== Signed-off-by:David S.
