Kind regards,

Can confirm this is an issue on Sierra 12.12.5. My log looks exactly like dude123's, and the existing fix no longer works.

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/SkyLight.framework/Resources/WindowServer
(/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/SkyLight.framework/Versions/A/SkyLight)

Subsystem:
com.apple.SkyLight

I am getting the same behavior, running Sierra, with a different 0x... number:

Can not reproduce the "ignore" fix.

I've tired this asl.conf. I can't seem to make it work in Sierra.
I have SIP (temporarily) turned off. Also tried this in /etc/asl/com.apple.windowserver and com.displaylink.windowserver. I can see that aslmanager is restarting after the HUP to syslog.

I still see tons of messages in the Console. Any thoughts as to what I am doing wrong?

Stopping log spam in sierra
 
As a temporary fix you can enter the following in your terminal:

Code:

sudo log config --process=[PID] --mode "level:off"
where [PID] is the ID of the process you see in the console.

You have to re-do it every time you re-start your mac which is a pain, but at least it saves all those writes to your disk

That works, thanks.

Yes, can confirm, this is the first "solution" that works on Sierra.
MacOS 10.12.6 - DisplayLink 3.1

Thank you duncamn!

Here's a quick and dirty shell script to automate the finding of the PID
Code:

#!/bin/sh
pid=`ps -ax | awk '/SkyLight.framework/ && !/awk/ {print $1}'`
echo "Skylight.framework with OpenGL logorrhea PID found. Suppressing log for PID $pid"
sudo log config --process=$pid --mode "level:off"

Put that in a file 'quite-dlink' in your $PATH, chmod 0755 it and execute it in Terminal at startup.

Still necessary?
 
After installing the 4.0 beta, I'm no longer noticing any log spam. I ran the terminal command anyway, but observed no change in the amount or type of logs being generated by the system. Is anyone else seeing the same?

dude123 09-30-2017 02:33 AM

Problem solved!!!

Update to 4.0 didn't make it better on macOS 10.12 - BUT after the system update to 10.13 combined with 4.0 - now finally the log spam is solved and on top of that also the hardware support for video etc is very much improved.

Well done!! Thank you a lot DisplayLink-Team!!!!

My new MacBook Pro running 10.12.6 and with DisplayLink 4.0.0 is filling up my Console with this error message.

I see where 10.13 might fix it but that is not an option on this work computer.

Any suggestions on how to get this to stop?
