Well let's first just see if it's sysfs not scaling - what if you just do for i in `seq 1 2000`; do sudo ip link add type veth if [ $((i % 100)) -eq 0 ]; then echo $i ls /sys/class/net fi done Then make sure to delete them :) for d in /sys/class/net/veth*; do ip link del `basename $d` 2>/dev/null || true done Now if that still scales fine, then let's try passing the veths into the container... uh, i'll send a script for that after we get this result :) thanks! -serge > Thanks > > Benoit > > If that does it, then it may just be a sysfs scalability bug. > > And if that still doesn't do it, then try adding the host end of each > veth pair to a host bridge.
