http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=907698 Bug ID: 907698 Summary: syslog filled with "ModemManager(...)Modem/2: signal quality updated (40)" Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: All OS: openSUSE 13.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: Ulrich.Windl@rz.uni-regensburg.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- When connected via broadband, ModemManager logs this message every 30 seconds to syslog: ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: signal quality updated (40) The thing is, it does not log a change, but a state (my signal quality was 40 all the time): # journalctl | cut -d' ' -f5- | sort | uniq -c [...] 7 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: access technology changed (hsdpa -> umts) 8 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: access technology changed (umts -> hsdpa) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: access technology changed (unknown -> umts) 969 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: signal quality updated (40) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: state changed (connecting -> connected) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: state changed (disabled -> enabling) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: state changed (enabling -> registered) [...] Syslog is about logging changes, not about logging states. It makes very little sense to log the signal quality every 30 seconds while the quality does not change. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I added a patch to MM and submitted it to the GNOME 3.14.2 stack update; as this is a rather minor issue (functionality is not affected at all), it does not warrant for a speedier update than that imho. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=907698 --- Comment #2 from Ulrich Windl <Ulrich.Windl@rz.uni-regensburg.de> --- I think a better fix than changing the message priority from INFO to DEBUG would be to remember the value reported last, and then only emit a new message if the current value is different from the last value. If values change too frequently, some throttling may be appropriate, also. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
