This corroborates my intial guess that the backend driver (in DOM0) is
sending the packets into the DOM0 networking layer, and never hearing
back when the packet is freed. Normally this would trigger a response
to be sent back to the domU and resources in the backend driver would
get freed up. This isn't happening and you eventually hit a limit on
the number of packets that the driver will simultaneously put in
flight.
Either those UDP packets are queued up somewhere in the DOM0 network
stack, or the destructor callback is not getting called for some
reason or has got overwritten(!).
