[linux-dvb] How to disable kernel logging?

[Luca Bertagnolio <lucaberta@yahoo.com>]

Hi folks,

been a user of the DVB components in Linux for a while, mostly
for data downloading, and things are pretty much stable since
quite a few months.

I am running the 2.6.8-gentoo-r3 kernel modules on a Gentoo
installation, on one system I have an Hauppauge WinTV-Nova, and
on a second system I have a Skystar2 2.6C.

My issue is related to logging, since I would like to be able to
get rid of the log messages that are showing up on the kernel
log output, shown with the dmesg command.

My dmesg is flooded with these kind of messages all the time:

dvb_net_feed_start: set multi_secfilter[0]
dvb0_2: filter mac=01 00 5e 5f de 15
dvb0_2: filter mask=ff ff ff ff ff ff
dvb_net_feed_start: set multi_secfilter[1]
dvb0_2: filter mac=01 00 5e 00 00 01
dvb0_2: filter mask=ff ff ff ff ff ff
dvb_net_feed_start: start filtering

and quite frankly I don't need them... I'd rather have them
punted to syslog and taken care of appropriately (i.e. sent to
/dev/null).

Any idea on how to fix this issue?  Ideally, a debugging option
in the kernel configuration would be perfect, but we know we
don't live in a perfect world, so hacking some source would do
as well... :-)

Many thanks in advance,

Luca
