lib/bug: remove unnecessary variable initializations

2026-03-28T04:19:42Z

Remove the unnecessary initialization of 'rcu' to false in report_bug_entry() and report_bug(), as it is assigned by warn_rcu_enter() before its first use.

lib/bug: fix inconsistent capitalization in BUG message

2026-03-28T04:19:42Z

Use lowercase "kernel BUG" consistently in pr_crit() messages. The verbose path already uses "kernel BUG at %s:%u!" but the non-verbose fallback uses "Kernel BUG" with an uppercase 'K'.

bug: avoid format attribute warning for clang as well

2026-03-28T03:48:38Z

Like gcc, clang-22 now also warns about a function that it incorrectly identifies as a printf-style format: lib/bug.c:190:22: error: diagnostic behavior may be improved by adding the 'format(printf, 1, 0)' attribute to the declaration of '__warn_printf' [-Werror,-Wmissing-format-attribute] 179 | static void __warn_printf(const char *fmt, struct pt_regs *regs) | __attribute__((format(printf, 1, 0))) 180 | { 181 | if (!fmt) 182 | return; 183 | 184 | #ifdef HAVE_ARCH_BUG_FORMAT_ARGS 185 | if (regs) { 186 | struct arch_va_list _args; 187 | va_list *args = __warn_args(&_args, regs); 188 | 189 | if (args) { 190 | vprintk(fmt, *args); | ^ Revert the change that added a gcc-specific workaround, and instead add the generic annotation that avoid the warning.

bug: Hush suggest-attribute=format for __warn_printf()

2025-12-12T09:26:26Z

Recent additions to this function cause GCC 14.3.0 to get excited (W=1) and suggest a missing attribute: lib/bug.c: In function '__warn_printf': lib/bug.c:187:25: error: function '__warn_printf' be a candidate for 'gnu_printf' format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format] 187 | vprintk(fmt, *args); | ^~~~~~~ Disable the diagnostic locally, following the pattern used for stuff like va_format().

bug: Let report_bug_entry() provide the correct bugaddr

2025-12-12T09:26:13Z

report_bug_entry() always provides zero for bugaddr but could easily extract the correct address from the provided bug_entry. Just do that to have proper warning messages. E.g. adding an artificial: void foo(void) { WARN_ONCE(1, "bar"); } function generates this warning message: WARNING: arch/s390/kernel/setup.c:1017 at 0x0, CPU#0: swapper/0/0 ^^^ With the correct bug address this changes to: WARNING: arch/s390/kernel/setup.c:1017 at foo+0x1c/0x40, CPU#0: swapper/0/0 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Fixes: 7d2c27a0ec5e ("bug: Add report_bug_entry()") Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251208200658.3431511-1-hca@linux.ibm.com

x86/bug: Fix BUG_FORMAT vs KASLR

2025-11-27T08:32:47Z

Encoding a relative NULL pointer doesn't work for KASLR, when the whole kernel image gets shifted, the __bug_table and the target string get shifted by the same amount and the relative offset is preserved. However when the target is an absolute 0 value and the __bug_table gets moved about, the end result in a pointer equivalent to kaslr_offset(), not NULL. Notably, this will generate SHN_UNDEF relocations, and Ard would really like to not have those at all. Use the empty string to denote no-string.

bug: Add report_bug_entry()

2025-11-21T10:21:31Z

Add a report_bug() variant where the bug_entry is already known. This is useful when the exception instruction is not instantiated per-site. But instead has a single instance. In such a case the bug_entry address might be passed along in a known register or something.
