[PATCH v4.4.y, v4.9.y] igb: Remove incorrect "unexpected SYS WRAP" log message

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

 



From: Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2643e6e90210e16c978919617170089b7c2164f7 upstream

TSAUXC.DisableSystime is never set, so SYSTIM runs into a SYS WRAP
every 1100 secs on 80580/i350/i354 (40 bit SYSTIM) and every 35000
secs on 80576 (45 bit SYSTIM).

This wrap event sets the TSICR.SysWrap bit unconditionally.

However, checking TSIM at interrupt time shows that this event does not
actually cause the interrupt.  Rather, it's just bycatch while the
actual interrupt is caused by, for instance, TSICR.TXTS.

The conclusion is that the SYS WRAP is actually expected, so the
"unexpected SYS WRAP" message is entirely bogus and just helps to
confuse users.  Drop it.

[ Due to confusion about stable rules for networking the request was
mistakenly sent to netdev only[0]. Apologies if you're seeing this
again. ]

Hi,

A customer reported that the following message appears in the kernel
logs every 1100s -

    igb 0000:01:00.1: unexpected SYS WRAP

As the systems have large uptimes the messages are crowding the logs.

The message was dropped in 
commit 2643e6e90210e16c ("igb: Remove incorrect "unexpected SYS WRAP" log message")
in v4.14.

Please consider applying to patch to v4.4 and v4.9 stable kernels - it
applies cleanly to both the trees.

Thanks,
Punit
