Hi, We are using bihash where key is 5 tuple of the packet. There are different type of free list which are maintained and once an entry is allocated and removed from a bihash that memory still remain with the bihash for future usage.
The problem we are seeing is consistent growth in the memory of bihash even after 24 hours of traffic , somehow memory is not coming in a stable situation. Any suggestions here are really appreciated. With 5 tuple and less buckets Hash table 'abc_v4_flow_hash' 5260666 active elements 131072 active buckets 11 free lists * [len 2] 50214 free elts* * [len 4] 58542 free elts* * [len 8] 69288 free elts* * [len 16] 74395 free elts* * [len 32] 77187 free elts* * [len 64] 53558 free elts* * [len 128] 1 free elts* 1788 linear search buckets heap: 25363 chunk(s) allocated bytes: used 2.33g, scrap 48.84m
