NO-ISSUE: Disable journald rate limiting in logging test - #7304
Conversation
The "Case Insensitive Log Levels" test fails on ARM when testing TraceAll because klog verbosity 10 generates ~144K journal messages, exceeding journald's default rate limit of 10K messages per 30 seconds. The suppressed messages include the startup config dump line that the test greps for, making the assertion impossible to satisfy. Instead of globally disabling rate limiting in all test VMs, scope the fix to the logging suite: disable rate limiting in suite setup and re-enable it in teardown.

WalkthroughThe change adds Robot Framework keywords to control journald rate limiting. The logging suite disables rate limiting during setup and restores it during teardown. ChangesJournald rate-limit controls
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The logging-suite change disables journald rate limiting, but its cleanup can overwrite and then delete a pre-existing journald configuration file on the test host. That could change or lose host logging settings, so the PR needs this behavior fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Preserve any pre-existing journald drop-in. Disable Journal Rate Limiting overwrites the fixed path, and Enable Journal Rate Limiting removes it during the logging suite teardown. If the path exists before setup, teardown can delete its original contents. Back up and restore the file, use a unique test-owned path, or fail when the path already exists.
