My perfectly stable IPFire 161 has now started rebooting at irregular intervals. Looking at the kernal logs I see this before it reboots:
IPv4: martian source 192.168.0.1 from 0.0.0.0, on dev green0
18:44:33 kernel: ll header: 00000000: 00 01 2e 6e 6a 04 00 90 c2 e7 8a 65 08 00
19:14:37 kernel: IPv4: martian source 192.168.0.1 from 0.0.0.0, on dev green0
19:14:37 kernel: ll header: 00000000: 00 01 2e 6e 6a 04 00 90 c2 e7 8a 65 08 00
19:44:41 kernel: IPv4: martian source 192.168.0.1 from 0.0.0.0, on dev green0
19:44:41 kernel: ll header: 00000000: 00 01 2e 6e 6a 04 00 90 c2 e7 8a 65 08 00
20:14:45 kernel: IPv4: martian source 192.168.0.1 from 0.0.0.0, on dev green0
20:14:45 kernel: ll header: 00000000: 00 01 2e 6e 6a 04 00 90 c2 e7 8a 65 08 00
Can’t find anything in any other logs as to why this is happening. Anyone else have some light or a clue?

Hi Tom
Thanks for the links, I did some research on this myself and hmmm. The next interesting thing is that after midnight last night the rebooting stopped. The martian source entries stopped.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone.

martian source messages usually come up when some client in the network is misconfigured, or if different networks are physically connected.

Reloaded, working fine until setting up WiFi again. Hmm.

Hi,
assuming you are using an USB-based WiFi equipment, this sounds related to a known XHCI regression in Linux kernel 5.15.x - please see this post for details.
Thanks, and best regards,

Hi,
dlfuller:
Reloading core 162 from scratch and using backups to recover has eliminated the Martian problem.
interesting. Such a Windows-like behaviour (“reinstall or restart, and everything is fine again”) isn’t what we strive for, but it’s good to hear things are now working for you again.
Thanks, and best regards,

Still getting the martians just took a few days to see more examples.
