I also install for a test Fedora 31, as it is running newest kernel version, to see if this was fixed, but still I got the same output... Since I am not a developer but mere mortal, I need to ask, is it possible to fix this bug as it present since kernel version 4.19 and is making lot of issues to all of us that have Spectre laptop (not only Fedora but other distributions using kernel version higher the 4.19). As the result of that bug, system is generating insane amount of data into /var/log/message, and when I meant insane, its probably around tens of messages within a single second, so the logs grow to couple of GB within a day. By doing a research I have found that another developer had the same issue as me, and he provided some sort of a bypass by patching hid- core.c in the drivers/hid folder and hid.h in the library/linux Please refer to the link below: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11052949 and https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11052951 If it is not a problem, can you please patch this bug and put it into a newer kernel version 5.3 kernel which will be released soon? At this point, our PC is quite unusable, as the logs are being filled up quickly, and not being able to have larger disk space we are forced to write a script to delete logs every day...

Now I am getting this exact same problem with KUbuntu 19.10 running "Linux ao-x360 5.3.0-23-generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 12 09:22:33 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux" I just did a quick "ls -l" comparison over time and the system is writing about 308kB/min (5kB/sec) to syslog and kern.log. Or, in an hour, the two files increase in size about 20 MB each. The message is kernel: [ 1627.620171] hid-sensor-hub 001F:8087:0AC2.0003: hid_field_extract() called with n (192) > 32! (kworker/3:2) I'm concerned that this is going to rapidly degrade the hard drives in the system.

For example, if you have rsyslog and the directory /etc/rsyslog.d/ Then you can create the file: /etc/rsyslog.d/10-hidsensor.conf with content: #Disable runaway messages: :msg, contains, "hid-sensor-hub 001F:8087:0AC2.0003: hid_field_extract() called with n (192) > 32!" stop And once that file exists, when you restart rsyslog (e.g. sudo system rsyslog restart) the messages will no longer hit your logs.

(kworker/5:1) [Fix] Let HID core allow longer input report length. [Test] User confirmed the fix works. [Regression Potential] Low. Longer input report length is now considered valid, shorter input report length doesn't get touched. === Original Bug Report === Dmesg is a constant barrage of the same error: ``` [ 406.165461] hid-sensor-hub 001F:8086:22D8.0002: hid_field_extract() called with n (192) > 32! (kworker/5:1) ``` This does not occur in 4.19 but does occur in all mainline 4.20 releases including 4.20.13 (linux-image-unsigned-4.20.13-042013). Tested with both Ubuntu's included libinput 1.10 and an updated libinput 1.12. Hardware (from lspci) includes a synaptic touchpad. Having the xorg synaptic driver installed makes no difference.
