- Add %pt[RT]s modifier to vsprintf(). It overrides ISO 8601 separator
by using ' ' (space). It produces "YYYY-mm-dd HH:MM:SS" instead of
"YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS".
- Correctly parse long row of numbers by sscanf() when using the field
width. Add extensive sscanf() selftest.
- Generalize re-entrant CPU lock that has already been used to
serialize dump_stack() output. It is part of the ongoing printk
rework. It will allow to remove the obsoleted printk_safe buffers and
introduce atomic consoles.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Stop synchronizing kernel log buffer readers by logbuf_lock. As a
result, the access to the buffer is fully lockless now.
Note that printk() itself still uses locks because it tries to flush
the messages to the console immediately. Also the per-CPU temporary
buffers are still there because they prevent infinite recursion and
serialize backtraces from NMI. All this is going to change in the
future.
- kmsg_dump API rework and cleanup as a side effect of the logbuf_lock
removal.
- Make bstr_printf() aware that %pf and %pF formats could deference the
given pointer.

Rather than storing the iterator information in the registered
kmsg_dumper structure, create a separate iterator structure. The
kmsg_dump_iter structure can reside on the stack of the caller, thus
allowing lockless use of the kmsg_dump functions.
Update code that accesses the kernel logs using the kmsg_dumper
structure to use the new kmsg_dump_iter structure. For kmsg_dumpers,
this also means adding a call to kmsg_dump_rewind() to initialize
the iterator.
All this is in preparation for removal of @logbuf_lock.

- drivers/mtd/mtdoops.c
- fs/pstore/platform.c

The other 2 kmsg_dump users also do not rely on @active:
(hard-code @active to always be true)
- arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c
- kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_main.c
Therefore, @active can be removed.

Currently kdb uses in_interrupt() to determine whether its library
code has been called from the kgdb trap handler or from a saner calling
context such as driver init. This approach is broken because
in_interrupt() alone isn't able to determine kgdb trap handler entry from
normal task context. This can happen during normal use of basic features
such as breakpoints and can also be trivially reproduced using:
echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger
We can improve this by adding check for in_dbg_master() instead which
explicitly determines if we are running in debugger context.

which is the normal one.
1:

We could improve '1' to this :
#define kdb_func_printf(format, args...) \
kdb_printf("%s: " format, __func__, ## args)
2:
if(KDB_DEBUG(AR))
kdb_printf("%s "...,__func__,...);
We could improve '2' to this :
#define kdb_dbg_printf(mask, format, args...) \
do { \
if (KDB_DEBUG(mask)) \
kdb_func_printf(format, ## args); \
} while (0)
In addition, we changed the format code of size_t to %zu.

patch description]
Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org>
Currently using forward search doesn't handle multi-line strings correctly.
The search routine replaces line breaks with \0 during the search and, for
regular searches ("help | grep Common\n"), there is code after the line
has been discarded or printed to replace the break character.
However during a pager search ("help\n" followed by "/Common\n") when the
string is matched we will immediately return to normal output and the code
that should restore the \n becomes unreachable. Fix this by restoring the
replaced character when we disable the search mode and update the comment
accordingly.

During debug trap execution we expect dbg_deactivate_sw_breakpoints()
to be paired with an dbg_activate_sw_breakpoint(). Currently although
the calls are paired correctly they are needlessly smeared across three
different functions. Worse this also results in code to drive polled I/O
being called with breakpoints activated which, in turn, needlessly
increases the set of functions that will recursively trap if breakpointed.
Fix this by moving the activation of breakpoints into the debug core.

Currently kgdb has absolutely no safety rails in place to discourage or
prevent a user from placing a breakpoint in dangerous places such as
the debugger's own trap entry/exit and other places where it is not safe
to take synchronous traps.
Introduce a new config symbol KGDB_HONOUR_BLOCKLIST and modify the
default implementation of kgdb_validate_break_address() so that we use
the kprobe blocklist to prohibit instrumentation of critical functions
if the config symbol is set. The config symbol dependencies are set to
ensure that the blocklist will be enabled by default if we enable KGDB
and are compiling for an architecture where we HAVE_KPROBES.

`kdb_msg_write` operates on a global `struct kgdb_io *` called
`dbg_io_ops`.
It's initialized in `debug_core.c` and checked throughout the debug
flow.
There's a null check in `kdb_msg_write` which triggers static analyzers
and gives the (almost entirely wrong) impression that it can be null.
Coverity scanner caught this as CID 1465042.
I have removed the unnecessary null check and eliminated false-positive
forward null dereference warning.

In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used
in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using
oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console
handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses
more locks (VT/TTY is good example).
Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb
will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the
currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead
of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an
embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console
output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being
used.
In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to
use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just
store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and
while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops
console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change,
"is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

While rounding up CPUs via NMIs, its possible that a rounded up CPU
maybe holding a console port lock leading to kgdb master CPU stuck in
a deadlock during invocation of console write operations. A similar
deadlock could also be possible while using synchronous breakpoints.
So in order to avoid such a deadlock, set oops_in_progress to encourage
the console drivers to disregard their internal spin locks: in the
current calling context the risk of deadlock is a bigger problem than
risks due to re-entering the console driver. We operate directly on
oops_in_progress rather than using bust_spinlocks() because the calls
bust_spinlocks() makes on exit are not appropriate for this calling
context.
