Unlike a normal socket path, the tuntap device send path does not have any accounting. This means that the user-space sender may be able to pin down arbitrary amounts of kernel memory by continuing to send data to an end-point that is congested. Even when this isn't an issue because of limited queueing at most end points, this can also be a problem because its only response to congestion is packet loss. That is, when those local queues at the end-point fills up, the tuntap device will start wasting system time because it will continue to send data there which simply gets dropped straight away. Of course one could argue that everybody should do congestion control end-to-end, unfortunately there are people in this world still hooked on UDP, and they don't appear to be going away anywhere fast. In fact, we've always helped them by performing accounting in our UDP code, the sole purpose of which is to provide congestion feedback other than through packet loss. This patch attempts to apply the same bandaid to the tuntap device. It creates a pseudo-socket object which is used to account our packets just as a normal socket does for UDP. Of course things are a little complex because we're actually reinjecting traffic back into the stack rather than out of the stack. The stack complexities however should have been resolved by preceding patches. So this one can simply start using skb_set_owner_w. For now the accounting is essentially disabled by default for backwards compatibility. In particular, we set the cap to INT_MAX. This is so that existing applications don't get confused by the sudden arrival EAGAIN errors. In future we may wish (or be forced to) do this by default.
