Commit Message

Praveen Kannoju Feb. 20, 2024, 5:04 a.m. UTC 
  Through the routine bond_mii_monitor(), bonding driver inspects and commits
the slave state changes. During the times when slave state change and
failure in aqcuiring rtnl lock happen at the same time, the routine
bond_mii_monitor() reschedules itself to come around after 1 msec to commit
the new state.

During this, it executes the routine bond_miimon_inspect() to re-inspect
the state chane and prints the corresponding slave state on to the console.
Hence we do see a message at every 1 msec till the rtnl lock is acquired
and state chage is committed.

This patch doesn't change how bond functions. It only simply limits this
kind of log flood.

Hi Praveen,

As this is used several times I think that it would be worth introducing
a slave_info_ratelimit() helper. That is  assuming slave_info() is still used
without a rate limit. If not, you could just add net_ratelimit directly
to slave_info().

If none of this is desirable for some reason, then could you consider
reducing indentation somehow. f.e.:

		if (slave->delayi && net_ratelimit())
			slave_info(...

Thank you, Simon. 
Jay insisted upon using the existing net_ratelimit() instead of introducing a new helper. I've modified the patch to reduce the indentation as suggested by you. Please review.
