Public bug reported: OS: Xubuntu 16.04.1 LTS - Ubuntu 4.4.0-47.68-generic 4.4.24
Motherboard: ASRock Z170M Pro4S GPU: Asus Nvidia GTX 770 with 367.57 drivers Storage: Corsair 256 GB SSD, Toshiba 3 TB HDD, Hitachi 2 TB HDD Here's a small sample of the errors: http://pastebin.com/b2Jv8z37 While these errors definitely have a purpose, these error messages are created far too quickly, and this causes severe problems on my system at least, the logs become bloated with these messages, completely filling my root partition, preventing me from using my system. I believe that anyone else who is able to trigger these messages at such a high rate will have the same problem. Based on the amount of messages and the time given for each, it appears that this error message appears approximately 1000 times per second (on my system), creating 3000 lines per second or ~400000 bytes per second (on my system). This fills up about 1.4 GB per hour (on my system) which fills up my root partition in less than a day. Once my root partition is filled, my system becomes unusable. My preferred solution to this issue is to limit the rate at which these messages appear. A limit of one error message per second seems like a good idea. Also, I tried reporting this to the Linux kernel devs, I'm not exactly sure if either of these places is the right place but hopefully somebody will be able to fix this issue.
