[PATCH] scsi: storvsc: Ratelimit warning logs to prevent VM denial of service

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If there's a persistent error in the hypervisor, the scsi warning for
failed IO can flood the kernel log and max out CPU utilization,
preventing troubleshooting from the VM side. Ratelimit the warning so
it doesn't DOS the VM.

failed IO can overwhelm the kernel log and max out CPU utilization,

VM.

This is not super critical and can be deferred to an 6.14 rc since it
mostly occurs when there's a problem with the host disk or filesystem.
