Subject: [PATCH RFC nf-next 5/9] netfilter: reduce allowed hook count to 32
Date: Thu, 14 Oct 2021 14:10:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211014121046.29329-7-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211014121046.29329-1-fw@strlen.de>

1k is huge and will mean we'd need to support tailcalls in the
nf_hook bpf converter.

We need about 5 insns per hook at this time, ignoring prologue/epilogue.

32 should be fine, typically even extreme cases need about 8 hooks per
hook location.
