<title>lib/vsprintf.c: Amend static asserts for format specifier flags</title>

<id>urn:sha1:24a1dffbecafeb00d8830985eb7a318e37aabc4e</id>
<content type='text'>
There are couple of improvements to static asserts against
the format specifier flags:

- new static assert for SIGN
- fix static assert for SMALL

SMALL is not equal to ASCII code of white space, it equals to
the bit difference between capital and small letters (however
the value is the same, semantically expression means different
things).

<title>vsprintf: Make %pGp print the hex value</title>

<content type='text'>
All existing users of %pGp want the hex value as well as the decoded
flag names.  This looks awkward (passing the same parameter to printf
twice), so move that functionality into the core.  If we want, we
can make that optional with flag arguments to %pGp in the future.

<title>module: add printk formats to add module build ID to stacktraces</title>
<updated>2021-07-08T18:48:22+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=9294523e3768030ae8afb84110bcecc66425a647'/>
<id>urn:sha1:9294523e3768030ae8afb84110bcecc66425a647</id>
<content type='text'>
Let's make kernel stacktraces easier to identify by including the build
ID[1] of a module if the stacktrace is printing a symbol from a module.
This makes it simpler for developers to locate a kernel module's full
debuginfo for a particular stacktrace.  Combined with
scripts/decode_stracktrace.sh, a developer can download the matching
debuginfo from a debuginfod[2] server and find the exact file and line
number for the functions plus offsets in a stacktrace that match the
module.  This is especially useful for pstore crash debugging where the
kernel crashes are recorded in something like console-ramoops and the
recovery kernel/modules are different or the debuginfo doesn't exist on
the device due to space concerns (the debuginfo can be too large for space
limited devices).

Originally, I put this on the %pS format, but that was quickly rejected
given that %pS is used in other places such as ftrace where build IDs
aren't meaningful.  There was some discussions on the list to put every
module build ID into the "Modules linked in:" section of the stacktrace
message but that quickly becomes very hard to read once you have more than
three or four modules linked in.  It also provides too much information
when we don't expect each module to be traversed in a stacktrace.  Having
the build ID for modules that aren't important just makes things messy.
Splitting it to multiple lines for each module quickly explodes the number
of lines printed in an oops too, possibly wrapping the warning off the
console.  And finally, trying to stash away each module used in a
callstack to provide the ID of each symbol printed is cumbersome and would
require changes to each architecture to stash away modules and return
their build IDs once unwinding has completed.

Instead, we opt for the simpler approach of introducing new printk formats
'%pS[R]b' for "pointer symbolic backtrace with module build ID" and '%pBb'
for "pointer backtrace with module build ID" and then updating the few
places in the architecture layer where the stacktrace is printed to use
this new format.

Before:

 Call trace:
  lkdtm_WARNING+0x28/0x30 [lkdtm]
  direct_entry+0x16c/0x1b4 [lkdtm]
  full_proxy_write+0x74/0xa4
  vfs_write+0xec/0x2e8

After:

 Call trace:
  lkdtm_WARNING+0x28/0x30 [lkdtm 6c2215028606bda50de823490723dc4bc5bf46f9]
  direct_entry+0x16c/0x1b4 [lkdtm 6c2215028606bda50de823490723dc4bc5bf46f9]
