>Description:
if packets arrive more frequently than a host can processes,
the host locks up. eg. ipintr() never finishes and no threads can run.
>How-To-Repeat:
send packets to a host frequently enough.
>Fix:
once the condition is detected,
- discard packets affirmatively
and/or
- move input processing to some thread context so that
it can yield cpu?
