This is sad since the tables were already small, but there is little alternative except perhaps adding more precise mss information in the tcp timestamp. Timestamps are unfortunately not ubiquitous. Guessing all possible cookie values still has 8-in 2**32 chance. Reported-by: Jakob Lell Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
