From de38483010bae523f533bb6bf9f7b7353772f6eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Sun, 1 Aug 2010 00:33:23 -0700 Subject: net: ingress filter message limit If user misconfigures ingress and causes a redirection loop, don't overwhelm the log. This is also a error case so make it unlikely. Found by inspection, luckily not in real system. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
