The patch titled scsi: only print data direction warning once for a command has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was scsi-only-print-data-direction-warning-once-for-a-command.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: scsi: only print data direction warning once for a command From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxx> When I use cdparanoia my logs get spammed a lot by printk: 464 messages suppressed. sg_write: data in/out 30576/30576 bytes for SCSI command 0xbe--guessing data in; program cdparanoia not setting count and/or reply_len properly printk: 1078 messages suppressed. and many more of those. With this patch the message is only printed once for a command in a row.
