Subject: [PATCH v1] pstore/ram: Rate-limit "uncorrectable error in header" message
Date: Tue,  2 Mar 2021 12:58:50 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210302095850.30894-1-digetx@gmail.com> (raw)

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+.
