That clearly looks better, but there's no message that ECC is enabled, so I'm not sure it works quite right.
No, that's ok. We downgraded those messages recently to KERN_DEBUG. If you boot with "debug" on the kernel command line, you'll see them.
I disagree rather strongly with this decision. It might be that, on the type of hardware used to run SLE, the message is indeed not very important, because ECC is always used, maybe even mandatory - what do I know. However, for consumer-level hardware, which is what Leap is targeting, the line stating that ECC is enabled is very important. Every Ryzen CPU supports ECC memory, except the non-Pro APUs. Furthermore, the motherboard and its BIOS also take part in supporting ECC. Many low- to mid-range motherboards do not support ECC, except some do without advertising it. Higher-end or prosumer mainboards often offer ECC support, and it's mentioned as a feature in the specs, sometimes even in the marketing material. Because of all this variety, any Leap user who invests in ECC memory really really wants to see the line in the log stating that it is in fact enabled. Forcing Leap users to turn on kernel debug info to get it completely voids your intention of trimming down log noise (which is why you downgraded the messages, I assume). Please undo that downgrade. I can (and will) file a separate bug report about it, if you prefer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
