Provide a better infrastructure for printk's inside the driver: - use edac_dbg() for debug messages; - standardize the usage of pr_info(); - provide warning about the risk of relying on this driver. While here, changes the size of a fake memory to 1 page. This is as good or as bad as 1000 pages, but it is easier for userspace to detect, as I don't expect that any machine implementing GHES would provide just 1 page available ;) Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/edac/ghes_edac.c | 28 +++++++++++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/edac/ghes_edac.c b/drivers/edac/ghes_edac.c index 97a0d53..48d6cd9 100644 --- a/drivers/edac/ghes_edac.c +++ b/drivers/edac/ghes_edac.c @@ -80,7 +80,8 @@ static void ghes_edac_dmidecode(const struct dmi_header *dh, void *arg) dimm_fill->count, 0, 0); if (entry->size == 0xffff) { - pr_info(GHES_PFX "Can't get dimm size\n"); + pr_info(GHES_PFX "Can't get DIMM%i size\n", + dimm_fill->count); dimm->nr_pages = MiB_TO_PAGES(32);/* Unknown */ } else if (entry->size == 0x7fff) { dimm->nr_pages = MiB_TO_PAGES(entry->extended_size); @@ -145,11 +146,11 @@ static void ghes_edac_dmidecode(const struct dmi_header *dh, void *arg) */ if (dimm->nr_pages) { - pr_info(GHES_PFX "DIMM%i: %s size = %d MB%s\n", + edac_dbg(1, "DIMM%i: %s size = %d MB%s\n", dimm_fill->count, memory_type[dimm->mtype], PAGES_TO_MiB(dimm->nr_pages), (dimm->edac_mode != EDAC_NONE)?
