[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.11 05/12] pstore/ram: Rate-limit "uncorrectable error in header" message

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

 



From: Dmitry Osipenko <digetx@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7db688e99c0f770ae73e0f1f3fb67f9b64266445 ]

There is a quite huge "uncorrectable error in header" flood in KMSG
on a clean system boot since there is no pstore buffer saved in RAM.
Let's silence the redundant noisy messages by rate-limiting the printk
message. Now there are maximum 10 messages printed repeatedly instead
of 35+.
