net_ratelimit: 3480 callbacks suppressed
 

Hi,

As i know machine allowed 10 messages in 5 seconds as configured in the /proc/sys/kernel/printk_ratelimit and /proc/sys/kernel/printk_ratelimit_burst files.

But my question is why this logging crosses 10 messages in 5 seconds and in which case it will happen.
And why normally kernel will have default value to 10 messages in 5 seconds. And what is the main advantage of this scenario.

Thanks,
Gopi.
