I recently upgraded to gentoo-sources-6.6.58-r1 and noticed that dmesg is starting to spew a lot of what appears to be network info. Below is an example, though the IN/MAC/DST changes. I'm wondering if it's firewall debug, but can't seem to find what it might be linked to in the kernel itself.

dmesg:
[248614.479828] IN=br-5cd6d96fcd08 OUT= PHYSIN=veth2ecb369 MAC=02:42:80:f1:37:24:02:42:ac:14:00:02:08:00 SRC=172.20.0.2 DST=192.168.1.4 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=21394 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=36326 DPT=8552 WINDOW=64240 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0


Anyone recognize what's causing this and/or how to stop/reduce it? Doesn't look needed

That looks like the result of an iptables rule with a target of LOG. What is the output of iptables-save -c? What do you have that has been loading firewall rules?

Please excuse me while I keep smacking my head. I have a custom script for iptables. I think I had the log put in to help monitor drop packets. I must have accidentally uncommented the line, but for the life of me can't recall doing it. I think this is the culprit in that script:

Code:
${IPTABLES} -A INPUT -j LOG


I just re-commented the line and reloaded the script. Thanks Hu, I appreciate the catch.
