[PATCH 2/2] fault-inject: add ratelimit option

From: Dmitry Monakhov
Date: Wed Aug 20 2014 - 08:55:01 EST


Current debug levels are not optimal. Especially if one want to
provoke big numbers of faults(broken device simulator) then any verbose
level will produce giant numbers of identical logging messages.
Let's add ratelimit parameter for that purpose.

Change-log:
- Dump fault_attr configuration on minimal verbose level.
- Add name to fault_attr
- Add ratelimit parameter


Example:
# Limit verbosity to one at 5 seconds
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_make_request/verbose_ratelimit_burst
echo 5000 > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_make_request/verbose_ratelimit_interval_ms

# dump only once in a day
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_make_request/verbose_ratelimit_burst
echo $((24 * 60 * 60* 1000)) > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_make_request/verbose_ratelimit_interval_ms
