From: Ryan Haasken <haasken@xxxxxxxx> Since the log file name contains the current time in seconds, dumping the logs more than once per second causes EEXIST errors to be emitted. Add a static variable to libcfs_debug_dumplog_internal that records the time of the last Lustre log dump. If the current time in seconds is equal to the last time, do not dump logs again. Note that this is not thread-safe. However, in the rare case that two threads try to access last_dump_time simultaneously, the worst thing that could happen is that one of the threads will get an EEXIST error when trying to write the log file. This is no worse than the current situation, and it is not likely to happen.
