What does ps -eo args,wchan show?
It shows tc stuck on wait_for_packet;
user space is stuck in recvmsg(). It seems to be waiting for an
NLMSG_DONE to complete the transaction - but that never comes.
One thing i've verified so far is it has nothing to do with the module
replay code. I am also doubting it has naything to do with locks in
the kernel. Its also a possibility that something changed in the
iproute2 causing this stuck waiting for NLMSG_DONE.
Could it be that it is simply not making any forward progress?
tcf_dump_walker() doesn't save the number of skipped entries, but
the last order dumped, so it could dump the same entries again
and again when they exceed the room in the skb.
