Actually, yes. This is expected. If you don't have a consumer on
/dev/xconsole (which I assume you don't have), the pipe will run full
eventually and rsyslog will suspend trying to write to the pipe. It does
retry after a while though.

What was fixed was the incorrect way to detect failures when writing to
the pipe. So rsyslog continuously retried without actually suspending
properly.

If you want to suppress those log messages completely, you can set
action.reportSuspension [0] to off. Either globally or per output.

Does that sufficiently answer your question?
