Hi,

This still not fixed in iproute 4.2.

Is they any plan to increase the rtnl_dump_filter buffer size soon ?

Regards,

Alexandre Derumier

Objet: Re: [pve-devel] bridge vlan range, kernel 4.1 : "message truncated" 
warning when too much vlans defined

Thanks Ronen, 

I have tested 

- char buf[16384]; 
+ char buf[3*16384]; 


and It's working fine to handle 4096 vlans numbers. 

(The problem was really the number of vlans ids defined, 
could be 1 interface with 2-4095vlans, or 100 interfaces with same 
2-4095vlans). 

With this buffer size it's working fine 


Thanks for the fast reply. 

Regards, 

Alexadre

The easiest fix is in iproute2. 
Increasing the buffer size used in rtnl_dump_filter_l 3x empirically resolves 
the 
issue. 

The root-cause is due to the buffer size calculation of dump request in the 
kernel. It is based on the total number of VLANs and does not account for 
compressed vlan requests. 
The flag argument is not propagated to get size functions. 

Fixing the size calculation in the kernel would work most of the time but would 
Fail when the number of ranges (and/or non-contiguous VLANs) exceeds ~1800. 

Therefore, fixing the size calculation in the kernel does not worth the 
Effort. Fixing iproute2 seems the easy way to overcome the issue.
