I see this at the top of Chrome's log after a ToT samus device boots:
[2133:2133:0809/143855:WARNING:drm_device_handle.cc(60)] Failed to authenticate /dev/dri/card0
[2133:2133:0809/143856:VERBOSE1:drm_device_handle.cc(66)] Succeeded authenticating /dev/dri/card0
Looking at the code, it seems like some failures are expected -- we retry indefinitely and log after the first failure.
If this is correct, we should wait longer before logging the error. I have a change that makes us only print the warning after the second and that makes the VLOG(1) a bit more informative:
[2160:2160:0809/175940:VERBOSE1:drm_device_handle.cc(83)] Succeeded authenticating /dev/dri/card0 in 500 ms with 6 attempt(s)
If we don't expect any failures, Daniel is now aware that we're seeing them. :-P
