      ratelimit: Make suppressed output messages more useful · 5c828713
      Christian Borntraeger 提交于
      Today I got:
      
        [39648.224782] Registered led device: iwl-phy0::TX
        [40676.545099] __ratelimit: 246 callbacks suppressed
        [40676.545103] abcdef[23675]: segfault at 0 ...
      
      as you can see the ratelimit message contains a function prefix.
      Since this is always __ratelimit, this wont help much.
      
      This patch changes __ratelimit and printk_ratelimit to print the
      function name that calls ratelimit.
      
      This will pinpoint the responsible function, as long as not several
      different places call ratelimit with the same ratelimit state at
      the same time. In that case we catch only one random function that
      calls ratelimit after the wait period.

      printk: Remove ratelimit.h from kernel.h · 3fff4c42
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Decouple kernel.h from ratelimit.h: the global declaration of
      printk's ratelimit_state is not needed, and it leads to messy
      circular dependencies due to ratelimit.h's (new) adding of a
      spinlock_types.h include.

      ratelimit: Fix/allow use in atomic contexts · edaac8e3
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      I'd like to use printk_ratelimit() in NMI context, but it's not
      robust right now due to spinlock usage in lib/ratelimit.c. If an
      NMI is unlucky enough to hit just that spot we might lock up trying
      to take the spinlock again.
      
      Fix that by using a trylock variant. If we contend on that lock we
      can genuinely skip the message because the state is just being
      accessed by another CPU (or by this CPU).
      
      ( We could use atomics for the suppressed messages field, but
        i doubt it matters in practice and it makes the code heavier. )

      ratelimit: Use per ratelimit context locking · 979f693d
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      I'd like to use printk_ratelimit() in atomic context, but that's
      not possible right now due to the spinlock usage this commit
      introduced more than a year ago:
      
        717115e1: printk ratelimiting rewrite
      
      As a first step push the lock into the ratelimit state structure.
      This allows us to deal with locking failures to be considered as an
      event related to that state being too busy.
      
      Also clean up the code a bit (without changing functionality):
      
       - tidy up the definitions
      
       - clean up the code flow
      
      This also shrinks the code a tiny bit:
      
         text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
          264	      0	      4	    268	    10c	ratelimit.o.before
          255	      0	      0	    255	     ff	ratelimit.o.after
      
      ( Whole-kernel data size got a bit larger, because we have
        two ratelimit-state data structures right now. )

      printk ratelimiting rewrite · 717115e1
      Dave Young 提交于
      All ratelimit user use same jiffies and burst params, so some messages
      (callbacks) will be lost.
      
      For example:
      a call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1)
      b call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) before the 5*HZ timeout of a, then b will
      will be supressed.
      
      - rewrite __ratelimit, and use a ratelimit_state as parameter.  Thanks for
        hints from andrew.
      
      - Add WARN_ON_RATELIMIT, update rcupreempt.h
      
      - remove __printk_ratelimit
      
      - use __ratelimit in net_ratelimit
