From c1aa38866b9c58dc6cf7a5fc6a3e1ca75565169e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2024 10:58:29 +0200 Subject: netfilter: nf_tables: store new sets in dedicated list nft_set_lookup_byid() is very slow when transaction becomes large, due to walk of the transaction list. Add a dedicated list that contains only the new sets. Before: nft -f ruleset 0.07s user 0.00s system 0% cpu 1:04.84 total After: nft -f ruleset 0.07s user 0.00s system 0% cpu 30.115 total .. where ruleset contains ~10 sets with ~100k elements. The above number is for a combined flush+reload of the ruleset. With previous flush, even the first NEWELEM has to walk through a few hundred thousands of DELSET(ELEM) transactions before the first NEWSET object. To cope with random-order-newset-newsetelem we'd need to replace commit_set_list with a hashtable. Expectation is that a NEWELEM operation refers to the most recently added set, so last entry of the dedicated list should be the set we want. NB: This is not a bug fix per se (functionality is fine), but with larger transaction batches list search takes forever, so it would be nice to speed this up for -stable too, hence adding a "fixes" tag.
