printk: Let no_printk() use _printk()

2024-06-12T09:11:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8522f6b760ca588928eede740d5d69dd1e936b49 ] When printk-indexing is enabled, each printk() invocation emits a pi_entry structure, containing the format string and other information related to its location in the kernel sources. This is even true for no_printk(): while the actual code to print the message is optimized out by the compiler due to the always-false check, the pi_entry structure is still emitted. As the main purpose of no_printk() is to provide a helper to maintain printf()-style format checking when debugging is disabled, this leads to the inclusion in the index of lots of printk formats that cannot be emitted by the current kernel. Fix this by switching no_printk() from printk() to _printk(). This reduces the size of an arm64 defconfig kernel with CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX=y by 576 KiB.

printk: move size limit macros into internal.h

2023-01-11T14:35:11+00:00

The size limit macros are located further down in printk.c and behind ifdef conditionals. This complicates their usage for upcoming changes. Move the macros into internal.h so that they are still invisible outside of printk, but easily accessible for printk. Also, the maximum size of formatted extended messages does not need to be known by any code outside of printk, so move it to internal.h as well. And like CONSOLE_LOG_MAX, for !CONFIG_PRINTK set CONSOLE_EXT_LOG_MAX to 0 to reduce the static memory footprint.

Revert "printk: add functions to prefer direct printing"

2022-06-23T16:41:40+00:00

This reverts commit 2bb2b7b57f81255c13f4395ea911d6bdc70c9fe2. The testing of 5.19 release candidates revealed missing synchronization between early and regular console functionality. It would be possible to start the console kthreads later as a workaround. But it is clear that console lock serialized console drivers between each other. It opens a big area of possible problems that were not considered by people involved in the development and review. printk() is crucial for debugging kernel issues and console output is very important part of it. The number of consoles is huge and a proper review would take some time. As a result it need to be reverted for 5.19.

printk: Wait for the global console lock when the system is going down

2022-06-15T20:04:15+00:00

There are reports that the console kthreads block the global console lock when the system is going down, for example, reboot, panic. First part of the solution was to block kthreads in these problematic system states so they stopped handling newly added messages. Second part of the solution is to wait when for the kthreads when they are actively printing. It solves the problem when a message was printed before the system entered the problematic state and the kthreads managed to step in. A busy waiting has to be used because panic() can be called in any context and in an unknown state of the scheduler. There must be a timeout because the kthread might get stuck or sleeping and never release the lock. The timeout 10s is an arbitrary value inspired by the softlockup timeout.
