[PATCH printk v2 0/2] nbcon irq_work fixes
From: John Ogness
Date: Fri Aug 28 2026 - 10:08:27 EST
Hi,
This is v2 of a series to address some irq_work issues with nbcon.
Initially motivated as a workaround for hardware-related regressions
reported [0], it turns out that the workaround is actually a nice
improvement for nbcon deferred printing in general.
v1 is here [1].
John Ogness
The changes since v1:
- Add a preceding patch to flush the irq_work on nbcon_free(). This
pre-existing issue was reported [2] by Sashiko while it was
reviewing v1.
