Description Aurelien Oudelet 2020-08-19 21:32:44 CEST

Since 5.0 Linux kernel, there are such errors displaying at boot time:

nvidia-gpu 0000:01:00.3: i2c timeout error e0000000
ucsi_ccg 0-0008: i2c_transfer failed -110
ucsi_ccg 0-0008: ucsi_ccg_init failed - -110
ucsi_ccg: probe of 0-0008 failed with error -110

These errors get displayed each system boot and despite every thing seems to function well, these errors are uglying plymouth Mageia splash on my system which runs with a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. This affects all owner of such graphic card and never nvidia drivers are involved.

Bug was reported upstream as these errors are related to a USB-C chip found on some new Nvidia RTX (! not GTX !) that Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti does not have!

A patch is proposed in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20665#14

This patch could reduce the log error level to info and should not break plymouth from displaying a good splash screen.

Assigning to Kernel and Drivers maintainers.

Thanks, Nicolas.
Well done, Plymouth splash is no longer broken by such illness bad error.

Reported upstream patch works. Should be mainline.
