Support for multiple concurrent readers of /dev/kmsg, with read(), seek(), poll() support. Output of message sequence numbers, to allow userspace log consumers to reliably reconnect and reconstruct their state at any given time. After open("/dev/kmsg"), read() always returns *all* buffered records. If only future messages should be read, SEEK_END can be used. In case records get overwritten while /dev/kmsg is held open, or records get faster overwritten than they are read, the next read() will return -EPIPE and the current reading position gets updated to the next available record. The passed sequence numbers allow the log consumer to calculate the amount of lost messages.

- Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

There's a few awkward printk()s inside of scheduler guts that people prefer to keep but really are rather deadlock prone. Fudge around it by storing the text in a per-cpu buffer and poll it using the existing printk_tick() handler. This will drop output when its more frequent than once a tick, however only the affinity thing could possible go that fast and for that just one should suffice to notify the admin he's done something silly..

Since commit 04c6862c ("kmsg_dump: add kmsg_dump() calls to the reboot, halt, poweroff and emergency_restart paths"), kmsg_dump() gets run on normal paths including poweroff and reboot. This is less than ideal given pstore implementations that can only represent single backtraces, since a reboot may overwrite a stored oops before it's been picked up by userspace. In addition, some pstore backends may have low performance and provide a significant delay in reboot as a result. This patch adds a printk.always_kmsg_dump kernel parameter (which can also be changed from userspace). Without it, the code will only be run on failure paths rather than on normal paths. The option can be enabled in environments where there's a desire to attempt to audit whether or not a reboot was cleanly requested or not.

It seems that 7bf69395 ("console: allow to retain boot console via boot option keep_bootcon") doesn't always achieve what it aims, as when printk_late_init() runs it unconditionally turns off all boot consoles. With this patch, I am able to see more messages on the boot console in KVM guests than I can without, when keep_bootcon is specified. I think it is appropriate for the relevant -stable trees. However, it's more of an annoyance than a serious bug (ideally you don't need to keep the boot console around as console handover should be working -- I was encountering a situation where the console handover wasn't working and not having the boot console available meant I couldn't see why).

syslog-ng versions before 3.3.0beta1 (2011-05-12) assume that CAP_SYS_ADMIN is sufficient to access syslog, so ever since CAP_SYSLOG was introduced (2010-11-25) they have triggered a warning. Commit ee24aebf ("cap_syslog: accept CAP_SYS_ADMIN for now") improved matters a little by making syslog-ng work again, just keeping the WARN_ONCE(). But still, this is a warning that writes a stack trace we don't care about to syslog, sets a taint flag, and alarms sysadmins when nothing worse has happened than use of an old userspace with a recent kernel. Convert the WARN_ONCE to a printk_once to avoid that while continuing to give userspace developers a hint that this is an unwanted backward-compatibility feature and won't be around forever.

Release console_sem after unlocking the logbuf_lock so that we don't generate wakeups while holding logbuf_lock. This avoids some lock inversion troubles once we remove the lockdep_off bits between logbuf_lock and rq->lock (prints while holding rq->lock vs doing wakeups while holding logbuf_lock). There's of course still an actual deadlock where the printk()s under rq->lock will issue a wakeup from the up() call, but lockdep won't warn about that since semaphores are not tracked.

由 Fabio M. Di Nitto 提交于
On some architectures, the boot process involves de-registering the boot console (early boot), initialize drivers and then re-register the console. This mechanism introduces a window in which no printk can happen on the console and messages are buffered and then printed once the new console is available. If a kernel crashes during this window, all it's left on the boot console is "console [foo] enabled, bootconsole disabled" making debug of the crash rather 'interesting'. By adding "keep_bootcon" option, do not unregister the boot console, that will allow to printk everything that is happening up to the crash. The option is clearly meant only for debugging purposes as it introduces lots of duplicated info printed on console, but will make bug report from users easier as it doesn't require a kernel build just to figure out where we crash.

The attribute supports poll(), which is raised when the virtual console is changed or /dev/console is reconfigured.

Eric Paris pointed out that it doesn't make sense to require both CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_SYSLOG for certain syslog actions. So require CAP_SYSLOG, not CAP_SYS_ADMIN, when dmesg_restrict is set. (I'm also consolidating the now common error path) Signed-off-by: NSerge E.

__get_cpu_var() is a bit inefficient, lets use __this_cpu_read() and __this_cpu_write() to manipulate printk_pending. printk_needs_cpu(cpu) is called only for the current cpu : Use faster __this_cpu_read().

Privileged syslog operations currently require CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Split this off into a new CAP_SYSLOG privilege which we can sanely take away from a container through the capability bounding set. With this patch, an lxc container can be prevented from messing with the host's syslog (i.e. dmesg -c).

This patch fixes a hang observed with 2.6.32 kernels where timers got enqueued on offline cpus. printk_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call printk_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If printk_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. Easiest way to fix this is just to test if the current cpu is offline and call printk_tick() directly which clears the condition. Alternatively I tried a cpu hotplug notifier which would clear the condition, however between calling the notifier function and printk_needs_cpu() something could have called printk() again and the problem is back again. This seems to be the safest fix.

wake_up_klogd() may get called from preemptible context but uses __raw_get_cpu_var() to write to a per cpu variable. If it gets preempted between getting the address and writing to it, the cpu in question could be offline if the process gets scheduled back and hence writes to the per cpu data of an offline cpu. This buggy behaviour was introduced with fa33507a "printk: robustify printk, fix #2" which was supposed to fix a "using smp_processor_id() in preemptible" warning. Let's use this_cpu_write() instead which disables preemption and makes sure that the outlined scenario cannot happen.

Move it out of printk.c so that we can use it all over the code. There are some potential users which will be converted to that macro in next patches. Signed-off-by: NJiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
