From 0d87d7ec22a0879d3926faa4f4f4412a5dee1fba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Ahern Date: Mon, 1 Aug 2016 13:49:29 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] perf/core: Change log level for duration warning to KERN_INFO When the perf interrupt handler exceeds a threshold warning messages are displayed on console: [12739.31793] perf interrupt took too long (2504 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000 [71340.165065] perf interrupt took too long (5005 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000 Many customers and users are confused by the message wondering if something is wrong or they need to take action to fix a problem. Since a user can not do anything to fix the issue, the message is really more informational than a warning. Adjust the log level accordingly.
