Subject: [PATCH v2 net 0/5] icmp: better deal with DDOS
Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2026 14:28:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260216142832.3834174-1-edumazet@google.com> (raw)

When dealing with death of big UDP servers, admins might want to
increase net.ipv4.icmp_msgs_per_sec and net.ipv4.icmp_msgs_burst
to big values (2,000,000 or more).

They also might need to tune the per-host ratelimit to 1ms or 0ms
in favor of the global rate limit.

This series fixes bugs showing up in all these needs.

Eric Dumazet (5):
  icmp: prevent possible overflow in icmp_global_allow()
  inet: move icmp_global_{credit,stamp} to a separate cache line
  ipv6: icmp: remove obsolete code in icmpv6_xrlim_allow()
  ipv4: icmp: icmpv4_xrlim_allow() optimization if
    net.ipv4.icmp_ratelimit is zero
  ipv6: icmp: icmpv6_xrlim_allow() optimization if
    net.ipv6.icmp.ratelimit is zero
