Hello,

I also agree an option is useless. I was just suggesting this in case some people still want to see it as warning.

I'll send a pull request a bit later.

Thanks for the feedback!

I completely agree!

We need to reduce the number of configurations, not increase it.

Just converting it to ninfo() is enough.

Other OS has a good documentation to educate developers to avoid
creating unnecessary Kconfig entries:

https://doc.riot-os.org/kconfig-in-riot.html
https://docs.zephyrproject.org/2.6.0/guides/kconfig/tips.html

BR,

Hi Sebastien,

I have this warning degraded to an informational message in my local
repository for the exact same reason. In my opinion it should just be
changed to informational. I.e. no need to make this configurable.

Bye,
Michael

Hi,

Currently in ipv4_input.c we have a warning that a packet was not for us
and was dropped. This pollutes the output of the console for no real
value when connected to a real network.

I suggest we turn this warning into an info to keep things clean.

The file contains real warnings that are much more important and
relevant that this line.


Could be configurable (with a potential CONFIG_NET_IP_NOTFORUS_WARN) or
fixed, here is the relevant code.

I can send a PR but I would like your general feeling on this issue
first, thank you!
