A few suggestions: o Use a single ratelimit state. o The multiple lines output are unnecessary and hard to grep in the dmesg output because of inconsistent prefixing as second and subsequent output lines are not prefixed by pr_fmt. o The DMAR prefix on the second block is also unnecessary as it's already prefixed by pr_fmt o Coalesce the formats for easier grep. so maybe: --- drivers/iommu/dmar.c | 28 ++++++++++++++++------------ 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/iommu/dmar.c b/drivers/iommu/dmar.c index 8ffd756..59dcaaa 100644 --- a/drivers/iommu/dmar.c +++ b/drivers/iommu/dmar.c @@ -1575,23 +1575,27 @@ static int dmar_fault_do_one(struct intel_iommu *iommu, int type, { const char *reason; int fault_type; + static DEFINE_RATELIMIT_STATE(rs, + DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_INTERVAL, + DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_BURST); + + if (__ratelimit(&rs)) + return 0; reason = dmar_get_fault_reason(fault_reason, &fault_type); if (fault_type == INTR_REMAP) - pr_err("INTR-REMAP: Request device [[%02x:%02x.%d] " - "fault index %llx\n" - "INTR-REMAP:[fault reason %02d] %s\n", - (source_id >> 8), PCI_SLOT(source_id & 0xFF), - PCI_FUNC(source_id & 0xFF), addr >> 48, - fault_reason, reason); + pr_err("[INTR-REMAP] Request device [%02x:%02x.%d] fault index %llx [fault reason %02d] %s\n", + source_id >> 8, PCI_SLOT(source_id & 0xFF), + PCI_FUNC(source_id & 0xFF), addr >> 48, + fault_reason, reason); else - pr_err("DMAR:[%s] Request device [%02x:%02x.%d] " - "fault addr %llx \n" - "DMAR:[fault reason %02d] %s\n", - (type ?
