From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3f2ce54284a60500eb6dca1dca6fd615df8f9aa3 ] If the console is unlocked during registration, the console subsystem generates significant amounts of warnings, which obfuscate actual debugging messages. Setting ignore_console_lock_warning while debugging console registration avoid the noise. v3: - manipulate ignore_console_lock_warning with atomic_{inc,dec} v2: - restore ignore_console_lock_warning if lock_fb_info() fails Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> Acked-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@xxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <b.zolnierkie@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c | 13 +++++++++---- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c b/drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c index f741ba8df01b..cd659f862d74 100644 --- a/drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c +++ b/drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c @@ -1703,17 +1703,22 @@ static int do_register_framebuffer(struct fb_info *fb_info) event.info = fb_info; if (!lockless_register_fb) console_lock(); + else + atomic_inc(&ignore_console_lock_warning); if (!lock_fb_info(fb_info)) { - if (!lockless_register_fb) - console_unlock(); - return -ENODEV; + ret = -ENODEV; + goto unlock_console; } + ret = 0; fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_FB_REGISTERED, &event); unlock_fb_info(fb_info); +unlock_console: if (!lockless_register_fb) console_unlock(); - return 0; + else + atomic_dec(&ignore_console_lock_warning); + return ret; } static int do_unregister_framebuffer(struct fb_info *fb_info) -- 2.17.1
