panic: move panic_print before kmsg dumpers

2022-03-24T02:00:35Z

The panic_print setting allows users to collect more information in a panic event, like memory stats, tasks, CPUs backtraces, etc. This is an interesting debug mechanism, but currently the print event happens *after* kmsg_dump(), meaning that pstore, for example, cannot collect a dmesg with the panic_print extra information. This patch changes that in 2 steps: (a) The panic_print setting allows to replay the existing kernel log buffer to the console (bit 5), besides the extra information dump. This functionality makes sense only at the end of the panic() function. So, we hereby allow to distinguish the two situations by a new boolean parameter in the function panic_print_sys_info(). (b) With the above change, we can safely call panic_print_sys_info() before kmsg_dump(), allowing to dump the extra information when using pstore or other kmsg dumpers. The additional messages from panic_print could overwrite the oldest messages when the buffer is full. The only reasonable solution is to use a large enough log buffer, hence we added an advice into the kernel parameters documentation about that.

panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_print

2022-03-24T02:00:35Z

Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast reboot instead of a kdump. Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios. So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.

panic: unset panic_on_warn inside panic()

2022-03-24T02:00:34Z

In the current code, the following three places need to unset panic_on_warn before calling panic() to avoid recursive panics: kernel/kcsan/report.c: print_report() kernel/sched/core.c: __schedule_bug() mm/kfence/report.c: kfence_report_error() In order to avoid copy-pasting "panic_on_warn = 0" all over the places, it is better to move it inside panic() and then remove it from the other places.

panic: remove oops_id

2022-01-20T06:52:55Z

The oops id has been added as part of the end of trace marker for the kerneloops.org project. The id is used to automatically identify duplicate submissions of the same report. Identical looking reports with different a id can be considered as the same oops occurred again. The early initialisation of the oops_id can create a warning if the random core is not yet fully initialized. On PREEMPT_RT it is problematic if the id is initialized on demand from non preemptible context. The kernel oops project is not available since 2017. Remove the oops_id and use 0 in the output in case parser rely on it.

panic: use error_report_end tracepoint on warnings

2022-01-20T06:52:55Z

Introduce the error detector "warning" to the error_report event and use the error_report_end tracepoint at the end of a warning report. This allows in-kernel tests but also userspace to more easily determine if a warning occurred without polling kernel logs.

printk: remove safe buffers

2021-07-26T13:09:34Z

With @logbuf_lock removed, the high level printk functions for storing messages are lockless. Messages can be stored from any context, so there is no need for the NMI and safe buffers anymore. Remove the NMI and safe buffers. Although the safe buffers are removed, the NMI and safe context tracking is still in place. In these contexts, store the message immediately but still use irq_work to defer the console printing. Since printk recursion tracking is in place, safe context tracking for most of printk is not needed. Remove it. Only safe context tracking relating to the console and console_owner locks is left in place. This is because the console and console_owner locks are needed for the actual printing.

kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers

2021-07-01T18:06:04Z

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and oops helpers. There are several purposes of doing this: - dropping dependency in bug.h - dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h - unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

Before commit 3f388f28639f ("panic: dump registers on panic_on_warn"), __warn() was calling show_regs() when regs was not NULL, and show_stack() otherwise.

panic: dump registers on panic_on_warn

2020-10-16T18:11:22Z

Currently we print stack and registers for ordinary warnings but we do not for panic_on_warn which looks as oversight - panic() will reboot the machine but won't print registers. This moves printing of registers and modules earlier. This does not move the stack dumping as panic() dumps it.
