[IPV4] ROUTE: ip_rt_dump() is unecessary slow
I noticed "ip route list cache x.y.z.t" can be *very* slow. While strace-ing -T it I also noticed that first part of route cache is fetched quite fast : recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202 GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3772 <0.000047> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\234\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\ 202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3736 <0.000042> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\204\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\ 202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3740 <0.000055> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\234\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\ 202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3712 <0.000043> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\204\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\ 202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3732 <0.000053> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202 GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3708 <0.000052> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202 GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3680 <0.000041> while the part at the end of the table is more expensive: recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\204\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3656 <0.003857> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\204\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3772 <0.003891> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3712 <0.003765> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3700 <0.003879> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3676 <0.003797> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\2\0\2\0"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3724 <0.003856> recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"\234\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202GXm\0\0\2 \0\376\0\0\1\0\2"..., 16384}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 3736 <0.003848> The following patch corrects this performance/latency problem, removing quadratic behavior.
