From 05ff8435e50569a0a6b95e5ceaea43696e8827ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davide Caratti Date: Wed, 19 May 2021 15:17:21 +0200 Subject: net/sched: cls_api: increase max_reclassify_loop modern userspace applications, like OVN, can configure the TC datapath to "recirculate" packets several times. If more than 4 "recirculation" rules are configured, packets can be dropped by __tcf_classify(). Changing the maximum number of reclassifications (from 4 to 16) should be sufficient to prevent drops in most use cases, and guard against loops at the same time.
