Hi Bjoern and All,
ARP_LOG is behind a sysctl; you can just
sysctl net.link.ether.arp.log_level=0
to quiten them all.
Thanks a lot. I tested it.
net.link.ether.arp.log_level 6 -> 0
I could stop the endless message! Very happy!
Question: which driver is this with as that may help figuring the
problem out? Is this iwlwifi because then that is likely a problem
there and I should figure out what's going wrong.
Any driver I think.
I got the message with run, rtwn, and iwlwifi at least.
According to a google search, this seems to be caused by a bad setting
in some network equipment. But, I'm not sure.
Best,
Takashi

Hi Chadd and All,
Thanks. I was asleep.
BTW, I wish that a treatment of the endless repeated message
in any way is implemented in release.

It's alos behind ppsratecheck so it should be throttled.
Dose someone can do this?

Just comment out the AR_LOG line. Use '//', not '#'.

Hi all,
I want to ask a favor to you.
It may not concern wireless network directly. I'm sorry for this.
I am using 13-STABLE ISO at 13th Jan.
I get the following message in dmesg many many times repeatedly, lets
say, every one second.
arp: packet with invalid ethernet address length 0 received on wlan0
According to a Google search, the reason of this may be in my network
environment.
But, I cannot change it. So, I want to stop the message by re-compiling
kernel(module).
I am going to modify /src/sys/netinet/if_ether.c around line 730.
I am thinking just comment out the ARP_LOG function lines, like
---------------------------------------------------------
if (hlen != 0 && hlen != ar->ar_hln) {
# ARP_LOG(LOG_NOTICE,
# "packet with invalid %s address length %d
received on %s\n",
# layer, ar->ar_hln, if_name(ifp));
m_freem(m);
return;
}
----------------------------------------------------------
Do I have better to cut(comment out) the whole the if(){} part?
Or, do you have a any better solution to suppress or reduce the
message?
Please give me some advice.
Best,
T. Inoue
