printk/panic: Allow cpu backtraces to be written into ringbuffer during panic

2024-08-29T15:35:53Z

[ Upstream commit bcc954c6caba01fca143162d5fbb90e46aa1ad80 ] commit 779dbc2e78d7 ("printk: Avoid non-panic CPUs writing to ringbuffer") disabled non-panic CPUs to further write messages to ringbuffer after panicked. Since the commit, non-panicked CPU's are not allowed to write to ring buffer after panicked and CPU backtrace which is triggered after panicked to sample non-panicked CPUs' backtrace no longer serves its function as it has nothing to print. Fix the issue by allowing non-panicked CPUs to write into ringbuffer while CPU backtrace is in flight.

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados: - Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/* Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for net/, io_uring/, mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline through their respective subsystems making the next release the most likely place where the final series that removes the check for proc_name == NULL will land. This adds to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/. - Adjust ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification - Remove unused ctl_table function arguments - Move non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header - Make ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by keeping the pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no ctl_tables where made const in this PR, the ground work for making that possible has started with these changes sent by Thomas Weißschuh. * tag 'sysctl-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl: sysctl: drop now unnecessary out-of-bounds check sysctl: move sysctl type to ctl_table_header sysctl: drop sysctl_is_perm_empty_ctl_table sysctl: treewide: constify argument ctl_table_root::permissions(table) sysctl: treewide: drop unused argument ctl_table_root::set_ownership(table) bpf: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array delayacct: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array kprobes: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array printk: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array scheduler: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array seccomp: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array timekeeping: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array ftrace: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array umh: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array kernel misc: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array

printk: cleanup deprecated uses of strncpy/strcpy

2024-05-07T08:41:51Z

Cleanup some deprecated uses of strncpy() and strcpy() [1]. There doesn't seem to be any bugs with the current code but the readability of this code could benefit from a quick makeover while removing some deprecated stuff as a benefit. The most interesting replacement made in this patch involves concatenating "ttyS" with a digit-led user-supplied string. Instead of doing two distinct string copies with carefully managed offsets and lengths, let's use the more robust and self-explanatory scnprintf(). scnprintf will 1) respect the bounds of @buf, 2) null-terminate @buf, 3) do the concatenation. This allows us to drop the manual NUL-byte assignment. Also, since isdigit() is used about a dozen lines after the open-coded version we'll replace it for uniformity's sake. All the strcpy() --> strscpy() replacements are trivial as the source strings are literals and much smaller than the destination size. No behavioral change here. Use the new 2-argument version of strscpy() introduced in Commit e6584c3964f2f ("string: Allow 2-argument strscpy()"). However, to make this work fully (since the size must be known at compile time), also update the extern-qualified declaration to have the proper size information.

printk: Add function to replay kernel log on consoles

2024-04-11T12:22:52Z

Add a generic function console_replay_all() for replaying the kernel log on consoles, in any context. It would allow viewing the logs on an unresponsive terminal via sysrq. Reuse the existing code from console_flush_on_panic() for resetting the sequence numbers, by introducing a new helper function __console_rewind_all(). It is safe to be called under console_lock(). Try to acquire lock on the console subsystem without waiting. If successful, reset the sequence number to oldest available record on all consoles and call console_unlock() which will automatically flush the messages to the consoles.
