network: Increase max route size when checking IPv6 forwarding
In
d9ee51e, virNetDevIPCheckIPv6Forwarding was updated to walk the
contents of /proc/net/ipv6_route so that it could check to see if the
RTF_ADDRCONF was set on any IPv6 routes to ultimately determine if
enabling forwarding would result in an error due to accept_ra=1 being
set on the interface.
The implementation added in that commit limited the number of routes
that could be read from /proc/net/ipv6_route to 100_000, each with 150
characters. This is problematic for machines that have a full IPv6
routing table, as the IPv6 routing table has now grown to over 160_000
(it was closer to 100_000 at the time of that commit).
This patch increases the maximum route size from 100_000 to 1_000_000.
While a million routes is somewhat arbitrary, it's meant to be a value
that can be supported for the forseeable future. APNIC, one of the five
regional internet registries, recently published a forecast of IPv6
table growth which anticipates a worst-case growth to 1_000_000 in
January of 2029.
