I think it's very justifiable, and doesn't bloat the kernel unnecessarily (also, Solaris and Linux, that I know of so far, also do this, so it's a pretty standard thing). And how about using an option "ICMP_BANDLIM_SILENT" as well? Sometimes you don't really want to see your message buffer filling up with ICMP_BANDLIM messages, and option "ICMP_BANDLIM_SILENT" would probably go into GENERIC too. If everyone thinks this is a good idea, I'll make the patches to src/sys/netinet/ip_input.c src/sys/{i386,alpha}/conf/GENERIC src/sys/i386/conf/options.i386 src/sys/alpha/conf/options.alpha and maybe PC98? PC98 should probably be left alone... Comments?
