The messages "<xyz> registered as cooling_deviceX" printed by various ACPI drivers give the same information as just looking at the symlinks /sys/class/thermal/cooling_deviceX/device. On a big system, they clutter up the syslog and take a long time to print on a serial console. On a 64-thread system I've been lucky enough to play with: $ dmesg | grep 'registered as cooling_device' | wc 64 448 4278 which is getting past tragedy and into the realm of comedy. We may as well not print these messages. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@xxxxxxxxx> --- Len, still more in my trimming of the boot log on my big box. If this makes sense to you, please apply. Also I think <http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/50048/> might have gotten lost somewhere -- you applied the C-state version but not the equivalent T-state patch. drivers/acpi/fan.c | 2 -- drivers/acpi/processor_core.c | 3 --- drivers/acpi/video.c | 2 -- 3 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/fan.c b/drivers/acpi/fan.c index f419849..6bbc61d 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/fan.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/fan.c @@ -267,8 +267,6 @@ static int acpi_fan_add(struct acpi_device *device) goto end; } - dev_info(&device->dev, "registered as cooling_device%d\n", cdev->id); - device->driver_data = cdev; result = sysfs_create_link(&device->dev.kobj, &cdev->device.kobj, diff --git a/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c b/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c index c2d4d6e..3d6e95e 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c @@ -845,9 +845,6 @@ static int acpi_processor_add(struct acpi_device *device) goto err_power_exit; } - dev_info(&device->dev, "registered as cooling_device%d\n", - pr->cdev->id); - result = sysfs_create_link(&device->dev.kobj, &pr->cdev->device.kobj, "thermal_cooling"); diff --git a/drivers/acpi/video.c b/drivers/acpi/video.c index a4fddb2..3f67f4d 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/video.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/video.c @@ -1022,8 +1022,6 @@ static void acpi_video_device_find_cap(struct acpi_video_device *device) return; } - dev_info(&device->dev->dev, "registered as cooling_device%d\n", - device->cooling_dev->id); result = sysfs_create_link(&device->dev->dev.kobj, &device->cooling_dev->device.kobj, "thermal_cooling"); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
