Subject[PATCH] ipv4: add documentation of sysctls of error_cost and error_burst
Date
From: xu xin <xu.xin16@zte.com.cn>

The descriptions of error_cost and error_burst sysctls are missing.
So add the descriptions of them in the documentation ip-sysctl.rst.

From linux kernel 3.6 onwards, this is deprecated for ipv4
as route cache is no longer used.

+route/error_cost - INTEGER
+ The minimum time interval between two consecutive ICMP-DEST-
+ UNREACHABLE packets allowed sent to the same peer in the stable
+ period. Basically, The higher its value is, the lower the general
+ frequency of sending ICMP DEST-UNREACHABLE packets.
+
+ Default: HZ (one second)
+
+route/error_burst - INTEGER
+ Together with error_cost, it controls the max number of burstly
+ sent ICMP DEST-UNREACHABLE packets after a long calm time (no
+ sending ICMP DEST-UNREACHABLE). Basically, the higher the rate
+ of error_burst over error_cost is, the more allowed burstly sent
+ ICMP DEST-UNREACHABLE packets after a long calm time.
+
+ Default: 5 * HZ
+
neigh/default/gc_thresh1 - INTEGER
Minimum number of entries to keep. Garbage collector will not
purge entries if there are fewer than this number.
