[PATCH v3 1/4] printk/nmi: Generic solution for safe printk in NMI
From: Petr Mladek
Date: Wed Dec 09 2015 - 08:22:51 EST
printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI
context.
The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing
stacks from all CPUs. This particular problem has been addressed
on x86 by the commit a9edc8809328 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack
trace on all CPUs").
This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic. It is
useful for all messages and architectures that support NMI.
The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when
leaving NMI context. It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into
the main ring buffer in a safe context.
__printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset
the buffer. Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to
get synchronized with writers. There is also used a spinlock
to get synchronized with other flushers.
We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock.
It would be hard to make all supported operations safe for
a lockless use. It would be confusing and error prone to
make only some operations safe.
The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by
Steven Rostedt. It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only
on architectures that call nmi_enter(). This is achieved by
the new HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag.
One exception is arm where the deferred printing is used for
printing backtraces even without NMI. For this purpose,
we define NEED_PRINTK_NMI Kconfig flag. The alternative
printk_func is explicitly set when IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE is
handled.
The other exceptions are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures.
We need to clean up NMI handling there first. Let's do it
separately.
The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra,
see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/10/327
