2020-06-23 Thread Peter Curtis
Has there been any progress on this. I still have the same problem on both kernel 4.15 and 5.4. I still have to modify logrotate to limit logging or more recently I have tried stopping the logging of any errors which was not as simple as I expected as rsyslog uses socket activation under
