Description Robin Jarry 2024-06-20 14:42:21 UTC
There is an iptables/nftables rules installed by tripleo ansible which logs all dropped packets. When the console is redirected to serial with certain UART controllers, this can cause very long stalls (see bz 2276671 for more details).

I don't see any reason why we would need to log all dropped packets. This seems excessive and could even be the source of serious issues in the case of DOS attacks.

Could this rule be removed entirely?
