I had what I believe to be the same issue on 12.04 Precise 2.6.32-12-pve x86_64 running in a Proxmox container. I downloaded http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/rsyslog/rsyslog_4.2.0-2ubuntu8_amd64.deb, installed, and now the error messages are no longer appearing.
Does this bug need to be re-opened? A new bug filed? It's showing fix- released but apparently the issue (or a variation) still exists. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/523610 Title: rsyslogd spins CPU on some kernels To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/+bug/523610/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
