Message-Id: <20170313.153236.1183838776173721070.davem@davemloft.net> Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:32:36 -0700 (PDT) From: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> To: linux@...ck-us.net Cc: steve.glendinning@...well.net, UNGLinuxDriver@...rochip.com, netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-usb@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: [PATCH] usbnet: smsc95xx: Reduce logging noise From: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net> Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2017 17:45:21 -0800 > An insert/remove stress test generated the following log message sequence. ... > Use netdev_dbg() instead of netdev_warn() for the repeating messages > to reduce logging noise. > > Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net> The problem I have with changes like this is that outside of your stress test situation these messages are extremely useful but will now be hidden making diagnosis of problems more difficult. Perhaps you can check the error code or some piece of USB device state to see if there was a disconnect, and elide the log message in that case specifically. Thanks.
