Hi,

The thermal throttle event support code located in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/therm_throt.c
which handles thermal interrupts if CONFIG_X86_MCE_INTEL is set to 'y'
causes too much noise in the kernel ring buffer:

$ dmesg | grep "Package power" | wc -l
392

Actually I think it would be more efficient to just print critical events
(cpu throttling) in syslog and mcelog and leave benign notifications 
in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/thermal_throttle/ 

So do you think getting rid of these messages would be acceptable? 

Cheers,
Vincent


P.S: I know I could restrict the output of 'dmesg' to not take into
account KERN_INFO but that's quite annoying ;-)

Hi

This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

Regards,
Salvatore
