From 6ad3122a08e3a9c2148873665752e87cf4f393cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steffen Klassert Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2016 10:40:07 +0100 Subject: flowcache: Avoid OOM condition under preasure We can hit an OOM condition if we are under presure because we can not free the entries in gc_list fast enough. So add a counter for the not yet freed entries in the gc_list and refuse new allocations if the value is too high.
