      printk: flush continuation lines immediately to console · 084681d1
      Kay Sievers 提交于
      Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the
      chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially
      racy continuation users from usual terminated line users.
      
      This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to
      the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel
      crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed
      information would never reach the consoles.
      
      Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic,
      and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available
      consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the
      readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount
      of needed record headers to store.

      perf: Use css_tryget() to avoid propping up css refcount · 9c5da09d
      Salman Qazi 提交于
      An rmdir pushes css's ref count to zero.  However, if the associated
      directory is open at the time, the dentry ref count is non-zero.  If
      the fd for this directory is then passed into perf_event_open, it
      does a css_get().  This bounces the ref count back up from zero.  This
      is a problem by itself.  But what makes it turn into a crash is the
      fact that we end up doing an extra dput, since we perform a dput
      when css_put sees the ref count go down to zero.
      
      css_tryget() does not fall into that trap. So, we use that instead.
      
      Reproduction test-case for the bug:
      
       #include <unistd.h>

       int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *hw_event_uptr,
                           pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd, unsigned long flags) {

      watchdog: Quiet down the boot messages · a7027046
      Don Zickus 提交于
      A bunch of bugzillas have complained how noisy the nmi_watchdog
      is during boot-up especially with its expected failure cases
      (like virt and bios resource contention).
      
      This is my attempt to quiet them down and keep it less confusing
      for the end user.  What I did is print the message for cpu0 and
      save it for future comparisons.  If future cpus have an
      identical message as cpu0, then don't print the redundant info.
      However, if a future cpu has a different message, happily print
      that loudly.
      
      Before the change, you would see something like:

      splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses · 047fe360
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Dave Jones reported a kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3474! triggered
      by splice_shrink_spd() called from vmsplice_to_pipe()
      
      commit 35f3d14d (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes)
      added capability to adjust pipe->buffers.
      
      Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers
      doesn't change for their duration.
      
      Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and
      use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate.
      
      splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument.
