commit 07354eb1 ("locking printk: Annotate logbuf_lock as raw") reintroduced a lock inversion problem which was fixed in commit 0b5e1c52 ("printk: Release console_sem after logbuf_lock"). This happened probably when fixing up patch rejects. Restore the ordering and unlock logbuf_lock before releasing console_sem.

print_prefix() passes a NULL buf to print_time() to get the length of the time prefix; when printk times are enabled, the current code just returns the constant 15, which matches the format "[%5lu.%06lu] " used to print the time value. However, this is obviously incorrect when the whole seconds part of the time gets beyond 5 digits (100000 seconds is a bit more than a day of uptime). The simple fix is to use snprintf(NULL, 0, ...) to calculate the actual length of the time prefix. This could be micro-optimized but it seems better to have simpler, more readable code here. The bug leads to the syslog system call miscomputing which messages fit into the userspace buffer. If there are enough messages to fill log_buf_len and some have a timestamp >= 100000, dmesg may fail with: # dmesg klogctl: Bad address When this happens, strace shows that the failure is indeed EFAULT due to the kernel mistakenly accessing past the end of dmesg's buffer, since dmesg asks the kernel how big a buffer it needs, allocates a bit more, and then gets an error when it asks the kernel to fill it: syslog(0xa, 0, 0) = 1048576 mmap(NULL, 1052672, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7fa4d25d2000 syslog(0x3, 0x7fa4d25d2010, 0x100008) = -1 EFAULT (Bad address) As far as I can see, the bug has been there as long as print_time(), which comes from commit 084681d1 ("printk: flush continuation lines immediately to console") in 3.5-rc5.

Instead of BUG_ON(in_interrupt()), since that doesn't check for all the newfangled stuff like preempt. Note that this is valid since the console_sem is essentially used like a real mutex with only two twists: - we allow trylock from hardirq context - across suspend/resume we lock the logical console_lock, but drop the semaphore protecting the locking state. Now that doesn't guarantee that no one is playing tricks in single-thread atomic contexts at suspend/resume/boot time, but - I couldn't find anything suspicious with some grepping, - might_sleep shouldn't die, - and I think the upside of catching more potential issues is worth the risk of getting a might_sleep backtrace that would have been save (and then dealing with that fallout).

Dave Airlie recently discovered a locking bug in the fbcon layer, where a timer_del_sync (for the blinking cursor) deadlocks with the timer itself, since both (want to) hold the console_lock: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/21/36 Unfortunately the console_lock isn't a plain mutex and hence has no lockdep support. Which resulted in a few days wasted of tracking down this bug (complicated by the fact that printk doesn't show anything when the console is locked) instead of noticing the bug much earlier with the lockdep splat. Hence I've figured I need to fix that for the next deadlock involving console_lock - and with kms/drm growing ever more complex locking that'll eventually happen. Now the console_lock has rather funky semantics, so after a quick irc discussion with Thomas Gleixner and Dave Airlie I've quickly ditched the original idead of switching to a real mutex (since it won't work) and instead opted to annotate the console_lock with lockdep information manually. There are a few special cases: - The console_lock state is protected by the console_sem, and usually grabbed/dropped at _lock/_unlock time. But the suspend/resume code drops the semaphore without dropping the console_lock (see suspend_console/resume_console). But since the same thread that did the suspend will do the resume, we don't need to fix up anything. - In the printk code there's a special trylock, only used to kick off the logbuffer printk'ing in console_unlock. But all that happens while lockdep is disable (since printk does a few other evil tricks). So no issue there, either. - The console_lock can also be acquired form irq context (but only with a trylock). lockdep already handles that. This all leaves us with annotating the normal console_lock, _unlock and _trylock functions. And yes, it works - simply unloading a drm kms driver resulted in lockdep complaining about the deadlock in fbcon_deinit: ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.6.0-rc2+ #552 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- kms-reload/3577 is trying to acquire lock: ((&info->queue)){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff81058c70>] wait_on_work+0x0/0xa7 but task is already holding lock: (console_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81264686>] bind_con_driver+0x38/0x263 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (console_lock){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff81087440>] lock_acquire+0x95/0x105 [<ffffffff81040190>] console_lock+0x59/0x5b [<ffffffff81209cb6>] fb_flashcursor+0x2e/0x12c [<ffffffff81057c3e>] process_one_work+0x1d9/0x3b4 [<ffffffff810584a2>] worker_thread+0x1a7/0x24b [<ffffffff8105ca29>] kthread+0x7f/0x87 [<ffffffff813b1204>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 -> #0 ((&info->queue)){+.+...}: [<ffffffff81086cb3>] __lock_acquire+0x999/0xcf6 [<ffffffff81087440>] lock_acquire+0x95/0x105 [<ffffffff81058cab>] wait_on_work+0x3b/0xa7 [<ffffffff81058dd6>] __cancel_work_timer+0xbf/0x102 [<ffffffff81058e33>] cancel_work_sync+0xb/0xd [<ffffffff8120a3b3>] fbcon_deinit+0x11c/0x1dc [<ffffffff81264793>] bind_con_driver+0x145/0x263 [<ffffffff81264a45>] unbind_con_driver+0x14f/0x195 [<ffffffff8126540c>] store_bind+0x1ad/0x1c1 [<ffffffff8127cbb7>] dev_attr_store+0x13/0x1f [<ffffffff8116d884>] sysfs_write_file+0xe9/0x121 [<ffffffff811145b2>] vfs_write+0x9b/0xfd [<ffffffff811147b7>] sys_write+0x3e/0x6b [<ffffffff813b0039>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(console_lock); lock((&info->queue)); lock(console_lock); lock((&info->queue)); *** DEADLOCK *** v2: Mark the lockdep_map static, noticed by Jani Nikula.

While tracking down a weird buffer overflow issue in a program that looked to be sane, I started double checking the length returned by syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, ...) to make sure it wasn't overflowing the buffer. Sure enough, it was. I saw this in strace: 11339 syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, "<5>[244017.708129] REISERFS (dev"..., 8192) = 8279 It turns out that the loops that calculate how much space the entries will take when they're copied don't include the newlines and prefixes that will be included in the final output since prev flags is passed as zero.

There are tools like makedumpfile and vmcore-dmesg which can extract kernel log buffer from vmcore. Since we introduced structured logging, that functionality is broken. Now user space tools need to know about "struct log" and offsets of various fields to be able to parse struct log data and extract text message or dictonary. This patch exports some of the fields. Currently I am not exporting log "level" info as that is a bitfield and offsetof() bitfields can't be calculated. But if people start asking for log level info in the output then we probably either need to seprate out "level" or use bit shift operations for flags and level.

Fragments of continuation lines are flushed to the console immediately. In case the console is locked, the fragment must be queued up in the cont buffer. If the the console is busy and the continuation line is complete, but no part of it was written to the console up to this point, we can just store the entire line as a regular record and free the buffer earlier. If the console is busy and earlier messages are already queued up, we should not flush the fragments of continuation lines, but store them after the queued up messages, to ensure the proper ordering. This keeps the console output better readable in case printk()s race against each other, or we receive over-long continuation lines we need to flush.

The /proc/kmsg read() interface is internally simply wired up to a sequence of syslog() syscalls, which might are racy between their checks and actions, regarding concurrency. In the (very uncommon) case of concurrent readers of /dev/kmsg, relying on usual O_NONBLOCK behavior, the recently introduced mutex might block an O_NONBLOCK reader in read(), when poll() returns for it, but another process has already read the data in the meantime. We've seen that while running artificial test setups and tools that "fight" about /proc/kmsg data. This restores the original /proc/kmsg behavior, where in case of concurrent read()s, poll() might wake up but the read() syscall will just return 0 to the caller, while another process has "stolen" the data. This is in the general case not the expected behavior, but it is the exact same one, that can easily be triggered with a 3.4 kernel, and some tools might just rely on it. The mutex is not needed, the original integrity issue which introduced it, is in the meantime covered by: "fill buffer with more than a single message for SYSLOG_ACTION_READ" 116e90b2 Cc: Yuanhan Liu <yuanhan.liu@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: NJan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NKay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

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.

The recent changes to the printk buffer management resulted in SYSLOG_ACTION_READ to only return a single message, whereas previously the buffer would get filled as much as possible. As, when too small to fit everything, filling it to the last byte would be pretty ugly with the new code, the patch arranges for as many messages as possible to get returned in a single invocation. User space tools in at least all SLES versions depend on the old behavior. This at once addresses the issue attempted to get fixed with commit b56a39ac ("printk: return -EINVAL if the message len is bigger than the buf size"), and since that commit widened the possibility for losing a message altogether, the patch here assumes that this other commit would get reverted first (otherwise the patch here won't apply). Furthermore, this patch also addresses the problem dealt with in commit 4a77a5a0 ("printk: use mutex lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild"), so I'd recommend reverting that one too (albeit there's no direct collision between the two).

Although syslog_seq and log_next_seq stuff are protected by logbuf_lock spin log, it's not enough. Say we have two processes A and B, and let syslog_seq = N, while log_next_seq = N + 1, and the two processes both come to syslog_print at almost the same time. And No matter which process get the spin lock first, it will increase syslog_seq by one, then release spin lock; thus later, another process increase syslog_seq by one again. In this case, syslog_seq is bigger than syslog_next_seq. And latter, it would make: wait_event_interruptiable(log_wait, syslog != log_next_seq) don't wait any more even there is no new write comes. Thus it introduce a infinite loop reading. I can easily see this kind of issue by the following steps: # cat /proc/kmsg # at meantime, I don't kill rsyslog # So they are the two processes. # xinit # I added drm.debug=6 in the kernel parameter line, # so that it will produce lots of message and let that # issue happen It's 100% reproducable on my side. And my disk will be filled up by /var/log/messages in a quite short time. So, introduce a mutex_lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild just like what devkmsg_read() does. It does fix this issue as expected. v2: use mutex_lock_interruptiable() instead (comments from Kay) Signed-off-by: NYuanhan Liu <yuanhan.liu@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: NFengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Acked-By: NKay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> -

Provide an iterator to receive the log buffer content, and convert all kmsg_dump() users to it. The structured data in the kmsg buffer now contains binary data, which should no longer be copied verbatim to the kmsg_dump() users. The iterator should provide reliable access to the buffer data, and also supports proper log line-aware chunking of data while iterating.

Commit 7ff9554b, printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer, causes systems using EABI to crash very early in the boot cycle. The first entry in struct log is a u64, which for EABI must be 8 byte aligned. Make use of __alignof__() so the compiler to decide the alignment, but allow it to be overridden using CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, for systems which can perform unaligned access and want to save a few bytes of space. Tested on Orion5x and Kirkwood.

Arrange the continuation printk() buffering to be fully separated from the ordinary full line users. Limit the exposure to races and wrong printk() line merges to users of continuation only. Ordinary full line users racing against continuation users will no longer affect each other. Multiple continuation users from different threads, racing against each other will not wrongly be merged into a single line, but printed as separate lines. Test output of a kernel module which starts two separate threads which race against each other, one of them printing a single full terminated line: printk("(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)\n"); The other one printing the line, every character separate in a continuation loop: printk("(C"); for (i = 0; i < 58; i++) printk(KERN_CONT "C"); printk(KERN_CONT "C)\n"); Behavior of single and non-thread-aware printk() buffer: # modprobe printk-race printk test init (CC(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) CC(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) CC(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) CC(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC) (CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC) New behavior with separate and thread-aware continuation buffer: # modprobe printk-race printk test init (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC) (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) (CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC) (CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC) Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Ted Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NKay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

__log_buf must be aligned, because a 64-bit value is written directly to it as part of struct log. Alignment of the log entries is typically handled by log_store(), but this only triggers for subsequent entries, not the very first (or wrapped) entries.

The output of the timestamps got lost with the conversion of the kmsg buffer to records; restore the old behavior. Document, that CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME now only controls the output of the timestamps in the syslog() system call and on the console, and not the recording of the timestamps.
