[PATCH 2/2] forcedeth: allow to silence tx_timeout debug messages
From: David Decotigny
Date: Wed May 18 2011 - 17:10:29 EST
From: Sameer Nanda <snanda@xxxxxxxxxx>
This change allows to silence most debug messages in case of TX
timeout. These messages don't provide a signare/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 debug messages are not displayed but this can be
overriden by setting the debug_tx_timeout module parameter.
