2020-06-08dynamic_debug: add an option to enable dynamic debug for modules onlyOrson Zhai1-3/+6
Instead of enabling dynamic debug globally with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE will only enable core function of dynamic debug. With the DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for any modules, dynamic debug will be tied to them. This is useful for people who only want to enable dynamic debug for kernel modules without worrying about kernel image size and memory consumption is increasing too much.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit safer.

2020-04-10printk: queue wake_up_klogd irq_work only if per-CPU areas are readySergey Senozhatsky1-5/+0
printk_deferred(), similarly to printk_safe/printk_nmi, does not immediately attempt to print a new message on the consoles, avoiding calls into non-reentrant kernel paths, e.g. scheduler or timekeeping, which potentially can deadlock the system. Those printk() flavors, instead, rely on per-CPU flush irq_work to print messages from safer contexts. For same reasons (recursive scheduler or timekeeping calls) printk() uses per-CPU irq_work in order to wake up user space syslog/kmsg readers. However, only printk_safe/printk_nmi do make sure that per-CPU areas have been initialised and that it's safe to modify per-CPU irq_work. This means that, for instance, should printk_deferred() be invoked "too early", that is before per-CPU areas are initialised, printk_deferred() will perform illegal per-CPU access. Lech Perczak [0] reports that after commit 1b710b1b10ef ("char/random: silence a lockdep splat with printk()") user-space syslog/kmsg readers are not able to read new kernel messages. The reason is printk_deferred() being called too early (as was pointed out by Petr and John). Fix printk_deferred() and do not queue per-CPU irq_work before per-CPU areas are initialized.

2019-09-26lib/hexdump: make print_hex_dump_bytes() a nop on !DEBUG buildsStephen Boyd1-7/+15
I'm seeing a bunch of debug prints from a user of print_hex_dump_bytes() in my kernel logs, but I don't have CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled nor do I have DEBUG defined in my build. The problem is that print_hex_dump_bytes() calls a wrapper function in lib/hexdump.c that calls print_hex_dump() with KERN_DEBUG level. There are three cases to consider here 1. CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y --> call dynamic_hex_dum() 2. CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n && DEBUG --> call print_hex_dump() 3. CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n && !DEBUG --> stub it out Right now, that last case isn't detected and we still call print_hex_dump() from the stub wrapper. Let's make print_hex_dump_bytes() only call print_hex_dump_debug() so that it works properly in all cases. Case #1, print_hex_dump_debug() calls dynamic_hex_dump() and we get same behavior. Case #2, print_hex_dump_debug() calls print_hex_dump() with KERN_DEBUG and we get the same behavior. Case #3, print_hex_dump_debug() is a nop, changing behavior to what we want, i.e. print nothing.

2019-05-15panic: avoid the extra noise dmesgFeng Tang1-0/+2
When kernel panic happens, it will first print the panic call stack, then the ending msg like: [ 35.743249] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception [ 35.749975] ------------[ cut here ]------------ The above message are very useful for debugging. But if system is configured to not reboot on panic, say the "panic_timeout" parameter equals 0, it will likely print out many noisy message like WARN() call stack for each and every CPU except the panic one, messages like below: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 280 at kernel/sched/core.c:1198 set_task_cpu+0x183/0x190 Call Trace: <IRQ> try_to_wake_up default_wake_function autoremove_wake_function __wake_up_common __wake_up_common_lock __wake_up wake_up_klogd_work_func irq_work_run_list irq_work_tick update_process_times tick_sched_timer __hrtimer_run_queues hrtimer_interrupt smp_apic_timer_interrupt apic_timer_interrupt For people working in console mode, the screen will first show the panic call stack, but immediately overridden by these noisy extra messages, which makes debugging much more difficult, as the original context gets lost on screen. Also these noisy messages will confuse some users, as I have seen many bug reporters posted the noisy message into bugzilla, instead of the real panic call stack and context. Adding a flag "suppress_printk" which gets set in panic() to avoid those noisy messages, without changing current kernel behavior that both panic blinking and sysrq magic key can work as is, suggested by Petr Mladek. To verify this, make sure kernel is not configured to reboot on panic and in console # echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger to see if console only prints out the panic call stack.

2019-04-15printk: Tie printk_once / printk_deferred_once into .data.once for resetPaul Gortmaker1-2/+2
In commit b1fca27d384e ("kernel debug: support resetting WARN*_ONCE") we got the opportunity to reset state on the one shot messages, without having to reboot. However printk_once (printk_deferred_once) live in a different file and didn't get the same kind of update/conversion, so they remain unconditionally one shot, until the system is rebooted. For example, we currently have: sched/rt.c: printk_deferred_once("sched: RT throttling activated\n"); ..which could reasonably be tripped as someone is testing and tuning a new system/workload and their task placements. For consistency, and to avoid reboots in the same vein as the original commit, we make these two instances of _once the same as the WARN*_ONCE instances are.

2019-03-04printk: Remove no longer used LOG_PREFIX.Tetsuo Handa1-1/+0
When commit 5becfb1df5ac8e49 ("kmsg: merge continuation records while printing") introduced LOG_PREFIX, we used KERN_DEFAULT etc. as a flag for setting LOG_PREFIX in order to tell whether to call cont_add() (i.e. whether to append the message to "struct cont"). But since commit 4bcc595ccd80decb ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") inverted the behavior (i.e. don't append the message to "struct cont" unless KERN_CONT is specified) and commit 5aa068ea4082b39e ("printk: remove games with previous record flags") removed the last LOG_PREFIX check, setting LOG_PREFIX via KERN_DEFAULT etc. is no longer meaningful. Therefore, we can remove LOG_PREFIX and make KERN_DEFAULT empty string.

2018-07-09printk/nmi: Prevent deadlock when accessing the main log buffer in NMIPetr Mladek1-0/+4
The commit 719f6a7040f1bdaf96 ("printk: Use the main logbuf in NMI when logbuf_lock is available") brought back the possible deadlocks in printk() and NMI. The check of logbuf_lock is done only in printk_nmi_enter() to prevent mixed output. But another CPU might take the lock later, enter NMI, and: + Both NMIs might be serialized by yet another lock, for example, the one in nmi_cpu_backtrace(). + The other CPU might get stopped in NMI, see smp_send_stop() in panic(). The only safe solution is to use trylock when storing the message into the main log-buffer. It might cause reordering when some lines go to the main lock buffer directly and others are delayed via the per-CPU buffer. It means that it is not useful in general. This patch replaces the problematic NMI deferred context with NMI direct context. It can be used to mark a code that might produce many messages in NMI and the risk of losing them is more critical than problems with eventual reordering. The context is then used when dumping trace buffers on oops. It was the primary motivation for the original fix. Also the reordering is even smaller issue there because some traces have their own time stamps. Finally, nmi_cpu_backtrace() need not longer be serialized because it will always us the per-CPU buffers again.

2018-06-27printk: Make CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET configurableHans de Goede1-3/+3
The goal of passing the "quiet" option to the kernel is for the kernel to be quiet unless something really is wrong. Sofar passing quiet has been (mostly) equivalent to passing loglevel=4 on the kernel commandline. Which means to show any messages with a level of KERN_ERR or higher severity on the console. In practice this often does not result in a quiet boot though, since there are many false-positive or otherwise harmless error messages printed, defeating the purpose of the quiet option. Esp. the ACPICA code is really bad wrt this, but there are plenty of others too. This commit makes CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET configurable. This for example will allow distros which want quiet to really mean quiet to set CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET so that only messages with a higher severity then KERN_ERR (CRIT, ALERT, EMERG) get printed, avoiding an endless game of whack-a-mole silencing harmless error messages.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-05-09crash: move crashkernel parsing and vmcore related code under CONFIG_CRASH_COREHari Bathini1-2/+2
Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4. Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel. crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such architecture specific infrastructure. This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec support. Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump. The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. The second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note() functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code. The third patch removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump) in powerpc. The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter. This has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports, for fadump as well. The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation about use of crashkernel parameter. This patch (of 5): Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel. crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such architecture specific infrastructure. But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. This patch introduces CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config, allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. There is no functional change with this patch.

2017-02-08printk: introduce per-cpu safe_print seq bufferSergey Senozhatsky1-6/+15
This patch extends the idea of NMI per-cpu buffers to regions that may cause recursive printk() calls and possible deadlocks. Namely, printk() can't handle printk calls from schedule code or printk() calls from lock debugging code (spin_dump() for instance); because those may be called with `sem->lock' already taken or any other `critical' locks (p->pi_lock, etc.). An example of deadlock can be vprintk_emit() console_unlock() up() << raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags); wake_up_process() try_to_wake_up() ttwu_queue() ttwu_activate() activate_task() enqueue_task() enqueue_task_fair() cfs_rq_of() task_of() WARN_ON_ONCE(!entity_is_task(se)) vprintk_emit() console_trylock() down_trylock() raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags) ^^^^ deadlock and some other cases. Just like in NMI implementation, the solution uses a per-cpu `printk_func' pointer to 'redirect' printk() calls to a 'safe' callback, that store messages in a per-cpu buffer and flushes them back to logbuf buffer later. Usage example: printk() printk_safe_enter_irqsave(flags) // // any printk() call from here will endup in vprintk_safe(), // that stores messages in a special per-CPU buffer. // printk_safe_exit_irqrestore(flags) The 'redirection' mechanism, though, has been reworked, as suggested by Petr Mladek. Instead of using a per-cpu @print_func callback we now keep a per-cpu printk-context variable and call either default or nmi vprintk function depending on its value. printk_nmi_entrer/exit and printk_safe_enter/exit, thus, just set/celar corresponding bits in printk-context functions. The patch only adds printk_safe support, we don't use it yet.

Commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") allows to define more message headers for a single message. The motivation is that continuous lines might get mixed. Therefore it make sense to define the right log level for every piece of a cont line. The current btrfs_printk() macros do not support continuous lines at the moment. But better be prepared for a custom messages and avoid potential "lvl" buffer overflow. This patch iterates over the entire message header. It is interested only into the message level like the original code. This patch also introduces PRINTK_MAX_SINGLE_HEADER_LEN. Three bytes are enough for the message level header at the moment. But it used to be three, see the commit 04d2c8c83d0e ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"). Also I fixed the default ratelimit level. It looked very strange when it was different from the default log level.

2016-10-09printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation linesLinus Torvalds1-0/+1
Long long ago the kernel log buffer was a buffered stream of bytes, very much like stdio in user space. It supported log levels by scanning the stream and noticing the log level markers at the beginning of each line, but if you wanted to print a partial line in multiple chunks, you just did multiple printk() calls, and it just automatically worked. Except when it didn't, and you had very confusing output when different lines got all mixed up with each other. Then you got fragment lines mixing with each other, or with non-fragment lines, because it was traditionally impossible to tell whether a printk() call was a continuation or not. To at least help clarify the issue of continuation lines, we added a KERN_CONT marker back in 2007 to mark continuation lines: 474925277671 ("printk: add KERN_CONT annotation"). That continuation marker was initially an empty string, and didn't actuall make any semantic difference. But it at least made it possible to annotate the source code, and have check-patch notice that a printk() didn't need or want a log level marker, because it was a continuation of a previous line. To avoid the ambiguity between a continuation line that had that KERN_CONT marker, and a printk with no level information at all, we then in 2009 made KERN_CONT be a real log level marker which meant that we could now reliably tell the difference between the two cases. 5fd29d6ccbc9 ("printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines") and we could take advantage of that to make sure we didn't mix up continuation lines with lines that just didn't have any loglevel at all. Then, in 2012, the kernel log buffer was changed to be a "record" based log, where each line was a record that has a loglevel and a timestamp. You can see the beginning of that conversion in commits e11fea92e13f ("kmsg: export printk records to the /dev/kmsg interface") 7ff9554bb578 ("printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer") with a number of follow-up commits to fix some painful fallout from that conversion. Over all, it took a couple of months to sort out most of it. But the upside was that you could have concurrent readers (and writers) of the kernel log and not have lines with mixed output in them. And one particular pain-point for the record-based kernel logging was exactly the fragmentary lines that are generated in smaller chunks. In order to still log them as one recrod, the continuation lines need to be attached to the previous record properly. However the explicit continuation record marker that is actually useful for this exact case was actually removed in aroundm the same time by commit 61e99ab8e35a ("printk: remove the now unnecessary "C" annotation for KERN_CONT") due to the incorrect belief that KERN_CONT wasn't meaningful. The ambiguity between "is this a continuation line" or "is this a plain printk with no log level information" was reintroduced, and in fact became an even bigger pain point because there was now the whole record-level merging of kernel messages going on. This patch reinstates the KERN_CONT as a real non-empty string marker, so that the ambiguity is fixed once again. But it's not a plain revert of that original removal: in the four years since we made KERN_CONT an empty string again, not only has the format of the log level markers changed, we've also had some usage changes in this area. For example, some ACPI code seems to use KERN_CONT _together_ with a log level, and now uses both the KERN_CONT marker and (for example) a KERN_INFO marker to show that it's an informational continuation of a line. Which is actually not a bad idea - if the continuation line cannot be attached to its predecessor, without the log level information we don't know what log level to assign to it (and we traditionally just assigned it the default loglevel). So having both a log level and the KERN_CONT marker is not necessarily a bad idea, but it does mean that we need to actually iterate over potentially multiple markers, rather than just a single one. Also, since KERN_CONT was still conceptually needed, and encouraged, but didn't actually _do_ anything, we've also had the reverse problem: rather than having too many annotations it has too few, and there is bit rot with code that no longer marks the continuation lines with the KERN_CONT marker. So this patch not only re-instates the non-empty KERN_CONT marker, it also fixes up the cases of bit-rot I noticed in my own logs. There are probably other cases where KERN_CONT will be needed to be added, either because it is new code that never dealt with the need for KERN_CONT, or old code that has bitrotted without anybody noticing. That said, we should strive to avoid the need for KERN_CONT. It does result in real problems for logging, and should generally not be seen as a good feature. If we some day can get rid of the feature entirely, because nobody does any fragmented printk calls, that would be lovely. But until that point, let's at mark the code that relies on the hacky multi-fragment kernel printk's. Not only does it avoid the ambiguity, it also annotates code as "maybe this would be good to fix some day". (That said, particularly during single-threaded bootup, the downsides of KERN_CONT are very limited. Things get much hairier when you have multiple threads going on and user level reading and writing logs too). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-08-03printk: add kernel parameter to control writes to /dev/kmsgBorislav Petkov1-0/+9
Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options: * ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace. * on - unlimited logging from userspace * off - logging from userspace gets ignored The default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it. This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of survival from all the spamming. It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line. Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg. That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime. This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the logging on us through sysctl(2). This patch is based on previous patches from Linus and Steven.

2016-05-21printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the system panicPetr Mladek1-0/+2
In NMI context, printk() messages are stored into per-CPU buffers to avoid a possible deadlock. They are normally flushed to the main ring buffer via an IRQ work. But the work is never called when the system calls panic() in the very same NMI handler. This patch tries to flush NMI buffers before the crash dump is generated. In this case it does not risk a double release and bails out when the logbuf_lock is already taken. The aim is to get the messages into the main ring buffer when possible. It makes them better accessible in the vmcore. Then the patch tries to flush the buffers second time when other CPUs are down. It might be more aggressive and reset logbuf_lock. The aim is to get the messages available for the consequent kmsg_dump() and console_flush_on_panic() calls. The patch causes vprintk_emit() to be called even in NMI context again. But it is done via printk_deferred() so that the console handling is skipped. Consoles use internal locks and we could not prevent a deadlock easily. They are explicitly called later when the crash dump is not generated, see console_flush_on_panic().

2016-05-21printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMIPetr Mladek1-1/+11
printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI context. The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing stacks from all CPUs. This particular problem has been addressed on x86 by the commit a9edc8809328 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all CPUs"). The patchset brings two big advantages. First, it makes the NMI backtraces safe on all architectures for free. Second, it makes all NMI messages almost safe on all architectures (the temporary buffer is limited. We still should keep the number of messages in NMI context at minimum). Note that there already are several messages printed in NMI context: WARN_ON(in_nmi()), BUG_ON(in_nmi()), anything being printed out from MCE handlers. These are not easy to avoid. This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic. It is useful for all messages and architectures that support NMI. The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when leaving NMI context. It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into the main ring buffer in a safe context. __printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset the buffer. Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to get synchronized with writers. There is also used a spinlock to get synchronized with other flushers. We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock. It would be hard to make all supported operations safe for a lockless use. It would be confusing and error prone to make only some operations safe. The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by Steven Rostedt. It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only on architectures that call nmi_enter(). This is achieved by the new HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag. The are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures. We need to clean up NMI handling there first. Let's do it separately. The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/10/327 [arnd@arndb.de: printk-nmi: use %zu format string for size_t] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: min_t->min - all types are size_t here] Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> [arm part] Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2016-01-16printk: help pr_debug and pr_devel to optimize out argumentsAaron Conole1-6/+6
Currently, pr_debug and pr_devel will not elide function call arguments appearing in calls to the no_printk for these macros. This is because all side effects must be honored before proceeding to the 0-value assignment in no_printk. The behavior is contrary to documentation found in the CodingStyle and the header file where these functions are declared. This patch corrects that behavior by shunting out the call to no_printk completely. The format string is still checked by gcc for correctness, but no code seems to be emitted in common cases.

2015-07-18include, lib: add __printf attributes to several function prototypesNicolas Iooss1-3/+3
Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in Makefile). For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a number, like the issue fixed in commit a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments do not match the format string, c.f. for example commit 5ce1aca81435 ("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string"). To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/. These functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format flag.

2015-06-26printk: guard the amount written per line by devkmsg_read()Tejun Heo1-0/+2
This patchset updates netconsole so that it can emit messages with the same header as used in /dev/kmsg which gives neconsole receiver full log information which enables things like structured logging and detection of lost messages. This patch (of 7): devkmsg_read() uses 8k buffer and assumes that the formatted output message won't overrun which seems safe given LOG_LINE_MAX, the current use of dict and the escaping method being used; however, we're planning to use devkmsg formatting wider and accounting for the buffer size properly isn't that complicated. This patch defines CONSOLE_EXT_LOG_MAX as 8192 and updates devkmsg_read() so that it limits output accordingly.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull nmi-safe seq_buf printk update from Steven Rostedt: "This code is a fork from the trace-3.19 pull as it needed the trace_seq clean ups from that branch. This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context. The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could deadlock from the printk() internal locks. This has been seen in practice. With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be accepted into mainline. Here's what is contained in this patch set: - Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()" formatted strings into it. The generic version was pulled out of the trace_seq() code that was made specifically for tracing. - The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code. I have a patch (not included for 3.19) that converts the seq_file.c code over to use seq_buf.c like the trace_seq.c code does. This was done to make sure that seq_buf.c is compatible with seq_file.c. I may try to get that patch in for 3.20. - The seq_buf.c file was moved to lib/ to remove it from being dependent on CONFIG_TRACING. - The printk() was updated to allow for a per_cpu "override" of the internal calls. That is, instead of writing to the console, a call to printk() may do something else. This made it easier to allow the NMI to change what printk() does in order to call dump_stack() without needing to update that code as well. - Finally, the dump_stack from all CPUs via NMI code was converted to use the seq_buf code. The caller to trigger the NMI code would wait till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the seq_buf data to the console safely from a non NMI context One added bonus is that this code also makes the NMI dump stack work on PREEMPT_RT kernels. As printk() includes sleeping locks on PREEMPT_RT, printk() only writes to console if the console does not use any rt_mutex converted spin locks.

2014-11-20printk: Add per_cpu printk func to allow printk to be divertedSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+2
Being able to divert printk to call another function besides the normal logging is useful for such things like NMI handling. If some functions are to be called from NMI that does printk() it is possible to lock up the box if the nmi handler triggers when another printk is happening. One example of this use is to perform a stack trace on all CPUs via NMI. But if the NMI is to do the printk() it can cause the system to lock up. By allowing the printk to be diverted to another function that can safely record the printk output and then print it when it in a safe context then NMIs will be safe to call these functions like show_regs().
