Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2013 12:02:39 -0700 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com>, "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [ 32/34] net: rate-limit warn-bad-offload splats. 3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com> [ Upstream commit c846ad9b880ece01bb4d8d07ba917734edf0324f ] If one does do something unfortunate and allow a bad offload bug into the kernel, this the skb_warn_bad_offload can effectively live-lock the system, filling the logs with the same error over and over. Add rate limitation to this so that box remains otherwise functional in this case. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
