3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Galo Navarro <anglorvaroa@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 401579c22ccbcb54244494069973e64b1fe980d2 ] Several lifecycle events in the rtl8188eu driver are logged using the DBG_88E_LEVEL macro from rtw_debug.h, which is tagged as ERROR regardless of the actual level. Below are dmesg excerpts after loading and unloading the module, the messages are misleading as there was no error. [517434.916239] usbcore: registered new interface driver r8188eu [517435.680653] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [517437.122606] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [517797.735611] usbcore: deregistering interface driver r8188eu [517797.736069] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc Remove the ERROR prefix from the logs. After the patch, logs are: [517949.873976] usbcore: registered new interface driver r8188eu [517950.592845] R8188EU: indicate disassoc [517951.993973] R8188EU: assoc success [521778.784448] usbcore: deregistering interface driver r8188eu [521778.784838] R8188EU: indicate disassoc Signed-off-by: Galo Navarro <anglorvaroa@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/include/rtw_debug.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/include/rtw_debug.h +++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/include/rtw_debug.h @@ -75,7 +75,7 @@ extern u32 GlobalDebugLevel; #define DBG_88E_LEVEL(_level, fmt, arg...) \ do { \ if (_level <= GlobalDebugLevel) \ - pr_info(DRIVER_PREFIX"ERROR " fmt, ##arg); \ + pr_info(DRIVER_PREFIX fmt, ##arg); \ } while (0) #define DBG_88E(...) \
