From: Konstantin Khlebnikov Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2015 11:01:11 +0000 (+0300) Subject: net: ratelimit warnings about dst entry refcount underflow or overflow X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8bf4ada2e21378816b28205427ee6b0e1ca4c5f1;p=linux-beck.git net: ratelimit warnings about dst entry refcount underflow or overflow Kernel generates a lot of warnings when dst entry reference counter overflows and becomes negative. That bug was seen several times at machines with outdated 3.10.y kernels. Most like it's already fixed in upstream. Anyway that flood completely kills machine and makes further debugging impossible.
