[PATCH 5.4 063/123] iommu/vt-d: quirk_ioat_snb_local_iommu: replace WARN_TAINT with pr_warn + add_taint

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 81ee85d0462410de8eeeec1b9761941fd6ed8c7b upstream.

Quoting from the comment describing the WARN functions in
include/asm-generic/bug.h:

 * WARN(), WARN_ON(), WARN_ON_ONCE, and so on can be used to report
 * significant kernel issues that need prompt attention if they should ever
 * appear at runtime.
 *
 * Do not use these macros when checking for invalid external inputs

The (buggy) firmware tables which the dmar code was calling WARN_TAINT
for really are invalid external inputs. They are not under the kernel's
control and the issues in them cannot be fixed by a kernel update.
So logging a backtrace, which invites bug reports to be filed about this,
is not helpful.
