[PATCH] irq: Guard handle_bad_irq log messages
From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Sat Dec 02 2017 - 11:29:38 EST
An interrupt storm on a bad interrupt will cause the kernel
log to be clogged.
[ 60.089234] ->handle_irq(): ffffffffbe2f803f,
[ 60.090455] 0xffffffffbf2af380
[ 60.090510] handle_bad_irq+0x0/0x2e5
[ 60.090522] ->irq_data.chip(): ffffffffbf2af380,
[ 60.090553] IRQ_NOPROBE set
[ 60.090584] ->handle_irq(): ffffffffbe2f803f,
[ 60.090590] handle_bad_irq+0x0/0x2e5
[ 60.090596] ->irq_data.chip(): ffffffffbf2af380,
[ 60.090602] 0xffffffffbf2af380
[ 60.090608] ->action(): (null)
[ 60.090779] handle_bad_irq+0x0/0x2e5
This was seen when running an upstream kernel on Acer Chromebook R11.
The system was unstable as result.
Guard the log message with __printk_ratelimit to reduce the impact.
This won't prevent the interrupt storm from happening, but at least
the system remains stable.
