I am not sure, which will need to be doublechecked but this may affect boot testing, regression testing, device cert testing that do look for these messages.
Hopefully they all know how to hunt for these messages elsehow, rather than via the graphical console log capture. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2049390 Title: Please change CONFIG_CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET to 3 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The Ubuntu Desktop boot isn't flickerfree today as reported on bug #1970069 , one of the reason is that kernel error messages are often being logged and not filtered out by our default loglevel (one example with usb messages on https://launchpadlibrarian.net/598152686/20220422_014058.jpg) Fedora is using CONFIG_CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET=3 (instead of 4 which is the default), they change it 5 years ago (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kernel/c/838818e5), the rational is in the commit message that added the configuration option to the kernel > This for example will allow distros which want quiet to really mean quiet to set > CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET so that only messages with a higher severity then KERN_ERR (CRIT, ALERT, EMERG) > get printed, avoiding an endless game of whack-a-mole silencing harmless error messages. ' Could we also get the default change to 3 in Ubuntu?
