[PATCH] virpcivpd: reduce errors in log due to invalid VPD

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Christian Ehrhardt <christian.ehrhardt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Sadly some devices provide invalid VPD data even with fully updated
firmware. Former hardning like 600f580d "PCI VPD: Skip fields with
invalid values" have already helped for those to some extent.
But if one happens to have such a device installed in the system,
despite all other things working properly the log potentially
flooded with messages like:
  internal error: The keyword is not comprised only of uppercase ASCII
  letters or digits
  internal error: A field data length violates the resource length boundary.

The user can't do anything about it to change that, they will be there on
any libvirt restart and potentially distract from other more important
issues.

Since the vpd decoding is implemented rather resilient (if parsing fails
all goes on fine, the respective device just has no VPD data populated
eventually) we can lower those from virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR
to just VIR_INFO. If needed for debugging people can set the level
accordingly, but otherwise we would no more fill the logs with errors
without a strong reason.
