[Bug 1881214] Re: syslog and kern.log grow endlessly - related to Intel wifi?

[Bug 1881214] Re: syslog and kern.log grow endlessly - related to Intel wifi?
I think I can tell more about the circumstances: 1* My computer is connected by Wifi to the modem / router on the 5 GHz band, (let's say) canal 100. 2* After a certain amount of time, the router switches *itself* the canal to 36 or 52. This amount of time is vary variable and independent of what I'm doing on my computer, hence the difficulty to describe the circumstances. 3* There is no indication that the connection is lost. There is no attempt to connect on the 2.4 GHz band, even though I have a connection profile. Then, syslog and kern.log start to grow endlessly, see bug description. With previous versions of Ubuntu: 1* and 2* Same. 3* The connection is lost but very shortly after that the Wifi card connects on the 2.4 GHz band. ** Description changed: Ubuntu Mate 20.04, with all supplied kernels up to 5.4.0.33 I occasionally see a message on my screen that disk space is low.

Unlike what I thought or hoped, using an upstream kernel (5.4.43-050443-generic x86_64) is not a workaround. I just had the same issue again. ** Description changed: Ubuntu Mate 20.04, with all supplied kernels up to 5.4.0.33 I occasionally see a message on my screen that disk space is low.
