Message-Id: <1457117848-22216-1-git-send-email-phil@nwl.cc> Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2016 19:57:28 +0100 From: Phil Sutter <phil@....cc> To: Stephen Hemminger <shemming@...cade.com> Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [iproute PATCH] libnetlink: Double the dump buffer size There have been reports about 'ip addr' printing "Message truncated" on systems with large numbers of VFs. Although I haven't been able to get my hands on hardware suitable to reproduce this, increasing the dump buffer has been reported to resolve the issue. For want of a better idea, just double the buffer size to 32k. Feels like this opportunistic buffer size selection is rather workarounding a design flaw in libnetlink or maybe even the netlink protocol itself.
