panic: use atomic_try_cmpxchg in panic() and nmi_panic()

2023-10-04T17:41:56Z

Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in panic() and nmi_panic(). x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg). Also, rename cpu variable to this_cpu in nmi_panic() and try to unify logic flow between panic() and nmi_panic(). No functional change intended.

panic: Reenable preemption in WARN slowpath

2023-09-15T09:28:08Z

Commit: 5a5d7e9badd2 ("cpuidle: lib/bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG") amended warn_slowpath_fmt() to disable preemption until the WARN splat has been emitted. However the commit neglected to reenable preemption in the !fmt codepath, i.e. when a WARN splat is emitted without additional format string. One consequence is that users may see more splats than intended. E.g. a WARN splat emitted in a work item results in at least two extra splats: BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic (emitted by process_one_work()) BUG: scheduling while atomic (emitted by worker_thread() -> schedule()) Ironically the point of the commit was to *avoid* extra splats. ;) Fix it.

mm: remove arguments of show_mem()

2023-08-18T17:12:02Z

All callers of show_mem() pass 0 and NULL, so we can remove the two arguments by directly calling __show_mem(0, NULL, MAX_NR_ZONES - 1) in show_mem().

panic: fix the panic_print NMI backtrace setting

2023-03-03T05:54:23Z

Commit 8d470a45d1a6 ("panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_print") introduced a setting for the "panic_print" kernel parameter to allow users to request a NMI backtrace on panic. Problem is that the panic_print handling happens after the secondary CPUs are already disabled, hence this option ended-up being kind of a no-op - kernel skips the NMI trace in idling CPUs, which is the case of offline CPUs. Fix it by checking the NMI backtrace bit in the panic_print prior to the CPU disabling function.

cpuidle: lib/bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG

2023-01-31T14:01:45Z

In order to avoid WARN/BUG from generating nested or even recursive warnings, force rcu_is_watching() true during WARN/lockdep_rcu_suspicious(). Notably things like unwinding the stack can trigger rcu_dereference() warnings, which then triggers more unwinding which then triggers more warnings etc..

Use a temporary variable to take full advantage of READ_ONCE() behavior. Without this, the report (and even the test) might be out of sync with the initial test.
