set limit { states X, frags Y } not working - buggy?

Hello, I have some doubts. First let me introduce you my problem. Sometimes, using pf route-to, the machines behind my NAT box can't start new sessions/connections, and on the box itself I get "Operation not permitted" when this problem happens. I suspected it was a limit on the number of states. Since the problem happens whenever it wants, I tried to reproduce the behavior lowing down the states limits, and for my surprise, I get a number of states way too higher than the limit. Please, see: # pfctl -s memory states hard limit 5000 src-nodes hard limit 10000 frags hard limit 2500 # pfctl -s info | grep "current entries" current entries 13770 What am I confusing here, or this really should not happen? -- =========== Eduardo Meyer pessoal: dudu.meyergmail.com profissional: ddm.farmaciapsaude.gov.br _______________________________________________ freebsd-pffreebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-pf To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-pf-unsubscribefreebsd.org"

What does "vmstat -z | grep ^pf" give? A quick check here suggests that this might be a problem in the zone(9) allocator as the limit is correctly propergated to the the uma zone in question, but not enforced it seems. -- /" Best regards, | mlaierfreebsd.org / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | mlaierEFnet / ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News

Max, thanks for asking. Here it's what the command returns # vmstat -z | grep ^pf pfsrctrpl: 100, 10023, 0, 78, 77 pfrulepl: 604, 0, 140, 88, 17555 pfstatepl: 260, 5010, 8096, 1879, 38569766 pfaltqpl: 128, 0, 0, 0, 0 pfpooladdrpl: 68, 0, 72, 152, 8534 pfrktable: 1240, 0, 5, 4, 89 pfrkentry: 156, 0, 10, 40, 481 pfrkentry2: 156, 0, 0, 0, 0 pffrent: 16, 2639, 0, 0, 0 pffrag: 48, 0, 0, 0, 0 pffrcache: 48, 10062, 0, 0, 0 pffrcent: 12, 50141, 0, 0, 0 pfstatescrub: 28, 0, 0, 0, 0 pfiaddrpl: 92, 0, 12, 114, 260 pfospfen: 108, 0, 345, 51, 22770 pfosfp: 28, 0, 188, 193, 12408 Right now I have some fewer sessions: # pfctl -s info | grep "current entries" current entries 8306 But way higher than the configured limit of 5k. -- =========== Eduardo Meyer pessoal: dudu.meyergmail.com profissional: ddm.farmaciapsaude.gov.br _______________________________________________ freebsd-pffreebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-pf To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-pf-unsubscribefreebsd.org"

Seems there was indeed something wrong with uma before release. In case this shows up again, be sure to check vmstat again. What pfctl reports is merely a wrapper around this. > pfaltqpl: 128, 0, 0, 0, 0 > pfpooladdrpl: 68, 0, 72, 152, 8534 > pfrktable: 1240, 0, 5, 4, 89 > pfrkentry: 156, 0, 10, 40, 481 > pfrkentry2: 156, 0, 0, 0, 0 > pffrent: 16, 2639, 0, 0, 0 > pffrag: 48, 0, 0, 0, 0 > pffrcache: 48, 10062, 0, 0, 0 > pffrcent: 12, 50141, 0, 0, 0 > pfstatescrub: 28, 0, 0, 0, 0 > pfiaddrpl: 92, 0, 12, 114, 260 > pfospfen: 108, 0, 345, 51, 22770 > pfosfp: 28, 0, 188, 193, 12408 > > Right now I have some fewer sessions: > > # pfctl -s info | grep "current entries" > current entries 8306 > > But way higher than the configured limit of 5k. -- /" Best regards, | mlaierfreebsd.org / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | mlaierEFnet / ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News

Fixed after upgrading to 6.2-STABLE. Now it works just fine - I had 6.1-PRERELEASE before.
