* kernel misc: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table arrayJoel Granados2024-04-241-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) Remove the sentinel from ctl_table arrays. Reduce by one the values used to compare the size of the adjusted arrays. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com>

| * panic: add option to dump blocked tasks in panic_printFeng Tang2024-02-221-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For debugging kernel panics and other bugs, there is already an option of panic_print to dump all tasks' call stacks. On today's large servers running many containers, there could be thousands of tasks or more, and this will print out huge amount of call stacks, taking a lot of time (for serial console which is main target user case of panic_print). And in many cases, only those several tasks being blocked are key for the panic, so add an option to only dump blocked tasks' call stacks.

* | panic: Flush kernel log buffer at the endJohn Ogness2024-02-071-0/+8
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the kernel crashes in a context where printk() calls always defer printing (such as in NMI or inside a printk_safe section) then the final panic messages will be deferred to irq_work. But if irq_work is not available, the messages will not get printed unless explicitly flushed. The result is that the final "end Kernel panic" banner does not get printed. Add one final flush after the last printk() call to make sure the final panic messages make it out as well.

* panic: use atomic_try_cmpxchg in panic() and nmi_panic()Uros Bizjak2023-10-041-9/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in panic() and nmi_panic(). x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg). Also, rename cpu variable to this_cpu in nmi_panic() and try to unify logic flow between panic() and nmi_panic(). No functional change intended.

* panic: Reenable preemption in WARN slowpathLukas Wunner2023-09-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit: 5a5d7e9badd2 ("cpuidle: lib/bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG") amended warn_slowpath_fmt() to disable preemption until the WARN splat has been emitted. However the commit neglected to reenable preemption in the !fmt codepath, i.e. when a WARN splat is emitted without additional format string. One consequence is that users may see more splats than intended. E.g. a WARN splat emitted in a work item results in at least two extra splats: BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic (emitted by process_one_work()) BUG: scheduling while atomic (emitted by worker_thread() -> schedule()) Ironically the point of the commit was to *avoid* extra splats. ;) Fix it.

* panic: fix the panic_print NMI backtrace settingGuilherme G. Piccoli2023-03-021-18/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8d470a45d1a6 ("panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_print") introduced a setting for the "panic_print" kernel parameter to allow users to request a NMI backtrace on panic. Problem is that the panic_print handling happens after the secondary CPUs are already disabled, hence this option ended-up being kind of a no-op - kernel skips the NMI trace in idling CPUs, which is the case of offline CPUs. Fix it by checking the NMI backtrace bit in the panic_print prior to the CPU disabling function.

I didn't bother to fully reconstruct this all, least because the call to bust_spinlock(0); gets moved every few years, depending upon how the wind blows (or well, who screamed loudest about the various issue each call site caused). Before that commit the only calls to console_unblank() where in s390 arch code. The other side here is the console->unblank callback, which was introduced in 2.1.31 for the vt driver. Which predates the console_unblank() function by a lot, which was added (without users) in 2.4.14.3. So pretty much impossible to guess at any motivation here. Also afaict the vt driver is the only (and always was the only) console driver implementing the unblank callback, so no idea why a call to console_unblank() was added for the mtdooops driver - the action actually flushing out the console buffers is done from console_unlock() only. Note that as prep for the s390 users the locking was adjusted in 2.5.22 (I couldn't figure out how to properly reference the BK commit from the historical git trees) from a normal semaphore to a trylock. Note that a copy of the direct unblank_screen() call was added to panic() in c7c3f05e341a ("panic: avoid deadlocks in re-entrant console drivers"), which partially inlined the bust_spinlocks(0); call. Long story short, I have no idea why the direct call to unblank_screen survived for so long (the infrastructure to do it properly existed for years), nor why it wasn't removed when the console_unblank() call was finally added. But it makes a ton more sense to finally do that than not - it's just better encapsulation to go through the console functions instead of doing a direct call, so let's dare. Plus it really does not make much sense to call the only unblank implementation there is twice, once without, and once with appropriate locking.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are reports that the console kthreads block the global console lock when the system is going down, for example, reboot, panic. First part of the solution was to block kthreads in these problematic system states so they stopped handling newly added messages. Second part of the solution is to wait when for the kthreads when they are actively printing. It solves the problem when a message was printed before the system entered the problematic state and the kthreads managed to step in. A busy waiting has to be used because panic() can be called in any context and in an unknown state of the scheduler. There must be a timeout because the kthread might get stuck or sleeping and never release the lock. The timeout 10s is an arbitrary value inspired by the softlockup timeout.

It prevents soft-lockups when an extensive amount of messages is printed. It was observed, for example, during boot of large systems with a lot of peripherals like disks or network interfaces. It prevents live-lockups that were observed, for example, when messages about allocation failures were reported and a CPU handled consoles instead of reclaiming the memory. It was hard to solve even with rate limiting because it would need to take into account the amount of messages and the speed of all consoles. It is a must to have for real time. Otherwise, any printk() might break latency guarantees. The per-console kthreads allow to handle each console on its own speed. Slow consoles do not longer slow down faster ones. And printk() does not longer unpredictably slows down various code paths. There are situations when the kthreads are either not available or not reliable, for example, early boot, suspend, or panic. In these situations, printk() uses the legacy mode and tries to handle consoles immediately. - Add documentation for the printk index. * tag 'printk-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux: printk, tracing: fix console tracepoint printk: remove @console_locked printk: extend console_lock for per-console locking printk: add kthread console printers printk: add functions to prefer direct printing printk: add pr_flush() printk: move buffer definitions into console_emit_next_record() caller printk: refactor and rework printing logic printk: add con_printk() macro for console details printk: call boot_delay_msec() in printk_delay() printk: get caller_id/timestamp after migration disable printk: wake waiters for safe and NMI contexts printk: wake up all waiters printk: add missing memory barrier to wake_up_klogd() printk: cpu sync always disable interrupts printk: rename cpulock functions printk/index: Printk index feature documentation MAINTAINERS: Add printk indexing maintainers on mention of printk_index

However, there are some special contexts where it is desirable for the printk caller to directly print out kernel messages. Using pr_flush() to wait for threaded printers is only possible if the caller is in a sleepable context and the kthreads are active. That is not always the case. Introduce printk_prefer_direct_enter() and printk_prefer_direct_exit() functions to explicitly (and globally) activate/deactivate preferred direct console printing. The term "direct console printing" refers to printing to all enabled consoles from the context of the printk caller. The term "prefer" is used because this type of printing is only best effort. If the console is currently locked or other printers are already actively printing, the printk caller will need to rely on the other contexts to handle the printing. This preferred direct printing is how all printing has been handled until now (unless it was explicitly deferred). When kthread printing is introduced, there may be some unanticipated problems due to kthreads being unable to flush important messages. In order to minimize such risks, preferred direct printing is activated for the primary important messages when the system experiences general types of major errors. These are: - emergency reboot/shutdown - cpu and rcu stalls - hard and soft lockups - hung tasks - warn - sysrq Note that since kthread printing does not yet exist, no behavior changes result from this commit. This is only implementing the counter and marking the various places where preferred direct printing is active.

This patch changes that in 2 steps: (a) The panic_print setting allows to replay the existing kernel log buffer to the console (bit 5), besides the extra information dump. This functionality makes sense only at the end of the panic() function. So, we hereby allow to distinguish the two situations by a new boolean parameter in the function panic_print_sys_info(). (b) With the above change, we can safely call panic_print_sys_info() before kmsg_dump(), allowing to dump the extra information when using pstore or other kmsg dumpers. The additional messages from panic_print could overwrite the oldest messages when the buffer is full. The only reasonable solution is to use a large enough log buffer, hence we added an advice into the kernel parameters documentation about that.

* | panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_printGuilherme G. Piccoli2022-03-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast reboot instead of a kdump. Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios. So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.

Since printk recursion tracking is in place, safe context tracking for most of printk is not needed. Remove it.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and oops helpers. There are several purposes of doing this: - dropping dependency in bug.h - dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h - unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we print stack and registers for ordinary warnings but we do not for panic_on_warn which looks as oversight - panic() will reboot the machine but won't print registers. This moves printing of registers and modules earlier. This does not move the stack dumping as panic() dumps it.

* panic: add sysctl to dump all CPUs backtraces on oops eventGuilherme G. Piccoli2020-06-081-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel). When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown their VMs / finish their important tasks. This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added (and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces. Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes). This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without resorting to kdump. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

* kernel: add panic_on_taintRafael Aquini2020-06-081-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.
