Bug#534724: Enhanced kernel rules

If bootup messages are intentionally excluded, then some of the current rules should in fact be dropped as well. Does bootup also mean that hot-pluggable stuff should be excluded? These messages will be the same in non-bootup contexts... Sorry for the delay. No, you can submit rules for hot-pluggable stuff. If you submit smaller bug reports, please don't forget to include the relevant log lines. Briefly walking through my patch once again I gather that nearly all of it is just about bootup messages. You might want close this bug; for the time being I'm herewith tagging it wontfix as this seems to best match the situation. Best, Michael pgpiwMzp3NReq.pgp Description: PGP signature

You might want do check the changes line by line as some of them could still be specific for my systems. Thanks for your contribution. Unfortunately, I don't think anyone has the time to go through these 599 rules and sort out that big pile. From a quick glance, most of these appear to be bootup messages, which are willingly not included in logcheck-database. I'm sure there are some good rules in there, but it's just not practical to hunt them down. In the future, would you be willing to resubmit some of them in piecemeal reports? That would be much appreciated. Thanks! Sorry for the late reply. I'm absolutely willing to submit small and useful bits, I'm just a bit unclear about the policy.

What about a ignore.d.restart folder which contains bootup rules and is only parsed when logcheck is called with -R option?
