How exactly? When sockets created SO_REUSEPORT move to TW state they are placed back on the the tb->owners. fastreuse port is no longer set so we have to walk potential long list of sockets in tb->owners to open a new listener socket. I imagine this is happens when we try to open a new listener SO_REUSEPORT after the system has been running a while and so we hit the long tb->owners list. Tom
