Subject: [PATCH 3/6] forcedeth: allow to silence tx_timeout debug messages
Date: Wed, 18 May 2011 17:14:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1305764080-24853-3-git-send-email-decot@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1305764080-24853-1-git-send-email-decot@google.com>
From: Sameer Nanda <snanda@google.com>
This adds a new module parameter "debug_tx_timeout" to silence most
debug messages in case of TX timeout. These messages don't provide a
signal/noise ratio high enough for production systems and, with ~30kB
logged each time, they tend to add to a cascade effect if the system
is already under stress (memory pressure, disk, etc.).
By default, the parameter is clear, meaning the debug messages are not
displayed.
