Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and
reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4.
Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.
This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel
parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec
support. Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of
fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump.
The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo
related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. The
second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note()
functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code. The third patch
removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump)
in powerpc. The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving
memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter. This
has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports,
for fadump as well. The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation
about use of crashkernel parameter.
This patch (of 5):
Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.
But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel
parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. This patch introduces
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config,
allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. There is no
functional change with this patch.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- There is a situation when early console is not deregistered because
the preferred one matches a wrong entry. It caused messages to appear
twice.
This is the 2nd attempt to fix it. The first one was wrong, see the
commit c6c7d83b9c ('Revert "console: don't prefer first registered
if DT specifies stdout-path"').
The fix is coupled with some small code clean up. Well, the console
registration code would deserve a big one. We need to think about it.
- Do not lose information about the preemtive context when the console
semaphore is re-taken.
- Do not block CPU hotplug when someone else is already pushing
messages to the console.
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk:
printk: fix double printing with earlycon
printk: rename selected_console -> preferred_console
printk: fix name/type/scope of preferred_console var
printk: Correctly handle preemption in console_unlock()
printk: use console_trylock() in console_cpu_notify()
All the console driver handling code lives in printk.c.
Move console_init() there as well so console support can still be used
when the TTY code is configured out. No logical changes from this patch.

If a console was specified by ACPI SPCR table _and_ command line
parameters like "console=ttyAMA0" _and_ "earlycon" were specified,
then log messages appear twice.
The root cause is that the code traverses the list of specified
consoles (the `console_cmdline` array) and stops at the first match.
But it may happen that the same console is referred by the elements
of this array twice:
pl011,mmio,0x87e024000000,115200 -- from SPCR
ttyAMA0 -- from command line
but in this case `preferred_console` points to the second entry and
the flag CON_CONSDEV is not set, so bootconsole is not deregistered.
To fix that, introduce an invariant "The last non-braille console
is always the preferred one" on the entries of the console_cmdline
array. Then traverse it in reverse order to be sure that if
the console is preferred then it will be the first matching entry.
Introduce variable console_cmdline_cnt that keeps the number
of elements of the console_cmdline array (Petr Mladek). It helps
to get rid of the loop that searches for the end of this array.

Some console drivers code calls console_conditional_schedule()
that looks at @console_may_schedule. The value must be cleared
when the drivers are called from console_unlock() with
interrupts disabled. But rescheduling is fine when the same
code is called, for example, from tty operations where the
console semaphore is taken via console_lock().
This is why @console_may_schedule is cleared before calling console
drivers. The original value is stored to decide if we could sleep
between lines.
Now, @console_may_schedule is not cleared when we call
console_trylock() and jump back to the "again" goto label.
This has become a problem, since the commit 6b97a20d3a
("printk: set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers").
@console_may_schedule might get enabled now.
There is also the opposite problem. console_lock() can be called
only from preemptive context. It can always enable scheduling in
the console code. But console_trylock() is not able to detect it
when CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is disabled. Therefore we should use the
original @console_may_schedule value after re-acquiring
the console semaphore in console_unlock().
This patch solves both problems by moving the "again" goto label.
Alternative solution was to clear and restore the value around
call_console_drivers(). Then console_conditional_schedule() could
be used also inside console_unlock(). But there was a potential race
with console_flush_on_panic() as reported by Sergey Senozhatsky.
That function should be called only where there is only one CPU
and with interrupts disabled. But better be on the safe side
because stopping CPUs might fail.
Fixes: 6b97a20d3a ("printk: set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers")

commit bbeddf52ad ("printk: move braille console support into
separate braille.[ch] files") introduced _braille_console_setup()
to outline the braille initialization code. There was however some
confusion over the value it was supposed to return. commit 2cfe6c4ac7
("printk: Fix return of braille_register_console()") tried to fix it
but failed to.
This fixes and documents the returned value according to the use
in printk.c: non-zero return means a parsing error, and thus this
console configuration should be ignored.

There is no need to always call blocking console_lock() in
console_cpu_notify(), it's quite possible that console_sem can
be locked by other CPU on the system, either already printing
or soon to begin printing the messages. console_lock() in this
case can simply block CPU hotplug for unknown period of time
(console_unlock() is time unbound). Not that hotplug is very
fast, but still, with other CPUs being online and doing
printk() console_cpu_notify() can stuck.
Use console_trylock() instead and opt-out if console_sem is
already acquired from another CPU, since that CPU will do
the printing for us.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add Petr Mladek, Sergey Senozhatsky as printk maintainers, and Steven
Rostedt as the printk reviewer. This idea came up after the
discussion about printk issues at Kernel Summit. It was formulated
and discussed at lkml[1].
- Extend a lock-less NMI per-cpu buffers idea to handle recursive
printk() calls by Sergey Senozhatsky[2]. It is the first step in
sanitizing printk as discussed at Kernel Summit.
The change allows to see messages that would normally get ignored or
would cause a deadlock.
Also it allows to enable lockdep in printk(). This already paid off.
The testing in linux-next helped to discover two old problems that
were hidden before[3][4].
- Remove unused parameter by Sergey Senozhatsky. Clean up after a past
change.

We use printk-safe now which makes printk-recursion detection code
in vprintk_emit() unreachable. The tricky thing here is that, apart
from detecting and reporting printk recursions, that code also used
to zap_locks() in case of panic() from the same CPU. However,
zap_locks() does not look to be needed anymore:
1) Since commit 08d78658f3 ("panic: release stale console lock to
always get the logbuf printed out") panic flushing of `logbuf' to
console ignores the state of `console_sem' by doing
panic()
console_trylock();
console_unlock();
2) Since commit cf9b1106c8 ("printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the
system panic") panic attempts to zap the `logbuf_lock' spin_lock to
successfully flush nmi messages to `logbuf'.
Basically, it seems that we either already do what zap_locks() used to
do but in other places or we ignore the state of the lock. The only
reaming difference is that we don't re-init the console semaphore in
printk_safe_flush_on_panic(), but this is not necessary because we
don't call console drivers from printk_safe_flush_on_panic() due to
the fact that we are using a deferred printk() version (as was
suggested by Petr Mladek).

Use printk_safe per-CPU buffers in printk recursion-prone blocks:
-- around logbuf_lock protected sections in vprintk_emit() and
console_unlock()
-- around down_trylock_console_sem() and up_console_sem()
Note that this solution addresses deadlocks caused by printk()
recursive calls only. That is vprintk_emit() and console_unlock().
The rest will be converted in a followup patch.
Another thing to note is that we now keep lockdep enabled in printk,
because we are protected against the printk recursion caused by
lockdep in vprintk_emit() by the printk-safe mechanism - we first
switch to per-CPU buffers and only then access the deadlock-prone
locks.

that may cause recursive printk() calls and possible deadlocks.
Namely, printk() can't handle printk calls from schedule code
or printk() calls from lock debugging code (spin_dump() for instance);
because those may be called with `sem->lock' already taken or any
other `critical' locks (p->pi_lock, etc.). An example of deadlock
can be
vprintk_emit()
console_unlock()
up() << raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags);
wake_up_process()
try_to_wake_up()
ttwu_queue()
ttwu_activate()
activate_task()
enqueue_task()
enqueue_task_fair()
cfs_rq_of()
task_of()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!entity_is_task(se))
vprintk_emit()
console_trylock()
down_trylock()
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags)
^^^^ deadlock
and some other cases.
Just like in NMI implementation, the solution uses a per-cpu
`printk_func' pointer to 'redirect' printk() calls to a 'safe'
callback, that store messages in a per-cpu buffer and flushes
them back to logbuf buffer later.
Usage example:
printk()
printk_safe_enter_irqsave(flags)
//
// any printk() call from here will endup in vprintk_safe(),
// that stores messages in a special per-CPU buffer.
//
printk_safe_exit_irqrestore(flags)
The 'redirection' mechanism, though, has been reworked, as suggested
by Petr Mladek. Instead of using a per-cpu @print_func callback we now
keep a per-cpu printk-context variable and call either default or nmi
vprintk function depending on its value. printk_nmi_entrer/exit and
printk_safe_enter/exit, thus, just set/celar corresponding bits in
printk-context functions.
The patch only adds printk_safe support, we don't use it yet.
