Subject: [PATCH net 2/9] netfilter: conncount: use DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE on reaching count limit
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 16:17:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827141733.423453-3-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260827141733.423453-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: Fernando Fernandez Mancera <fmancera@suse.de>
Replace WARN_ON_ONCE with DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE in __nf_conncount_add.
The function handles count limit breaches safely by returning
-EOVERFLOW, so a production backtrace is not needed. This prevents
unnecessary system panics when panic_on_warn=1 is enabled in production
systems.
