kernel: .... sent an invalid ICMP error to a bradcast

[Tim-Chr. Hanschen]

Hello,

I often got this kernel-message:

     kernel: ... sent an invalid ICMP error to a broadcast

After approx. three weeks of system-up time the linux will stop working.
The last message in the messages-log is this ICMP-error. The lpar-cpu-usage
on the whole machine is increasing from 4% to 20%. I have no network and
cannot login nor via telnet neither via HMC console.

I am using SuSE Linux (kernel 2.2.16) on a IBM z/900.

Any ideas?
