Details

Since kernel 3.15.1 in dmesg and in boot screen was showed : [drm:cpt_serr_int_handler] *ERROR* PCH transcoder A FIFO underrun.
Reference: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40952

This warning is since 3.19 kernel:

[drm:intel_set_pch_fifo_underrun_reporting [i915]] *ERROR* uncleared pch fifo underrun on pch transcoder A
[drm:intel_pch_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* PCH transcoder A FIFO underrun

and it is annoying.

On Linux 3.19 kernel this warning can be hidden in DEBUG mode after apply patch (in attachment).

Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  This is an upstream issue and changing log level obviously fixes nothing.

What GPU's do you have? It works fine for me on a T420 with SandyBridge.

I run integrated graphics (intel hd4000)

This issue affects Intel users. Mostly Sandy and Ivy Bridge GPU Family. It is present in kernel since 3.15 release. Like it is in description. Daniel Vetter extract management for FIFO issues in this file:
