If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Thomas Renninger commit 11f918d3e2d3861b6931e97b3aa778e4984935aa upstream. Do it the same way as done in microcode_intel.c: use pr_debug() for missing firmware files. There seem to be CPUs out there for which no microcode update has been submitted to kernel-firmware repo yet resulting in scary sounding error messages in dmesg: microcode: failed to load file amd-ucode/microcode_amd_fam16h.bin Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger Acked-by: Borislav Petkov Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1384274383-43510-1-git-send-email-trenn@suse.de Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings --- arch/x86/kernel/microcode_amd.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/arch/x86/kernel/microcode_amd.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/microcode_amd.c @@ -331,7 +331,7 @@ static enum ucode_state request_microcod snprintf(fw_name, sizeof(fw_name), "amd-ucode/microcode_amd_fam%.2xh.bin", c->x86); if (request_firmware(&fw, (const char *)fw_name, device)) { - pr_err("failed to load file %s\n", fw_name); + pr_debug("failed to load file %s\n", fw_name); goto out; }
