Description John F. Carr 2020-01-03 13:23:33 UTC

Running on an HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 (AMD EPYC 7402P 24 core) I see an error from the smartpqi driver in dmesg output, "unrecognized PQI config table section ID: 0x5".  Looking at the source (smartpqi_init.c) the error message seems unnecessary.  The driver is looking for one specific config table section, not trying to parse them all.  Unrecognized sections are fine.

Also there is a "WARN" message for each connected device.  The DBG_WARN in pqisrc_add_device should be a DBG_INFO, which would disable the message in normal operation.  (See PQISRC_LOG_LEVEL in smartpqi_defines.h.)

Here is the relevant fragment of dmesg output

I submitted a patch to the driver maintainer here: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23023

Log:
  Decrease logging severity when adding a device or reading config table.

  In PR 243056 a user reports some spam from smartpqi(4).  In particular,
  the driver warns about an unrecognized PQI_CONF_TABLE_SECTION_SOFT_RESET
  section (not yet defined in the driver, but handled in Linux), but this
  doesn't cause any problems.  The Linux driver also does not warn about
  unrecognized sections.

  Also do not log a warning when a device is added, since this is routine.
  Lower severity to DISC, to match pqisrc_remove_device().
