on boot I saw plenty of rubbish like:
|ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (domain 0000 [bus 00-ff])
|pci_root PNP0A03:00: Force enabled HPET at 0x%lx
|host bridge window [io 0x0000-0x0cf7] (ignored)
|pci_root PNP0A03:00: Force enabled HPET at 0x%lx
|host bridge window [io 0x0d00-0xffff] (ignored)
|pci_root PNP0A03:00: Force enabled HPET at 0x%lx
|ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKA] enabled at IRQ 10
|virtio-pci 0000:00:05.0: Force enabled HPET at 0x%lx
First I wonder myself why the kernel Force enables more than one HPET
and why the address isn't printed. Then I wasn't sure why virtio-pci
does the same thing.
As it turns out commit af7f2158fdee ("drivers-core: make structured
logging play nice with dynamic-debug") has probably an off by one error.
Since commit 314ba3520 ("printk: add kern_levels.h to make KERN_<LEVEL>
available for asm use") the whole shrunk by one byte. And for some
reason the compiler put the HPET string just after one of the kernel log
levels so level[3] was always true.
This should make the rubish go away, I am not sure if the dynamic debug
is still working. Jim could you please try?
