printk: fix delayed messages from CPU hotplug events When a secondary CPU is being brought up, it is not uncommon for printk() to be invoked when cpu_online(smp_processor_id()) == 0. The case that I witnessed personally was on MIPS: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/30/4 If (can_use_console() == 0), printk() will spool its output to log_buf and it will be visible in "dmesg", but that output will NOT be echoed to the console until somebody calls release_console_sem() from a CPU that is online. Therefore, the boot time messages from the new CPU can get stuck in "limbo" for a long time, and might suddenly appear on the screen when a completely unrelated event (e.g. "eth0: link is down") occurs. This patch modifies the console code so that any pending messages are automatically flushed out to the console whenever a CPU hotplug operation completes successfully or aborts. The issue was seen on 2.6.34. Original patch by Kevin Cernekee with cleanups by akpm and additional fixes by Santosh Shilimkar. This patch superseeds https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1357/.

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

/*
* The printk log buffer consists of a chain of concatenated variable
* length records. Every record starts with a record header, containing
* the overall length of the record.
*
* The heads to the first and last entry in the buffer, as well as the
* sequence numbers of these both entries are maintained when messages
* are stored..
*
* If the heads indicate available messages, the length in the header
* tells the start next message. A length == 0 for the next message
* indicates a wrap-around to the beginning of the buffer.
*
* Every record carries the monotonic timestamp in microseconds, as well as
* the standard userspace syslog level and syslog facility. The usual
* kernel messages use LOG_KERN; userspace-injected messages always carry
* a matching syslog facility, by default LOG_USER. The origin of every
* message can be reliably determined that way.
*
* The human readable log message directly follows the message header. The
* length of the message text is stored in the header, the stored message
* is not terminated.

* Optionally, a message can carry a dictionary of properties (key/value pairs),
* to provide userspace with a machine-readable message context.
*
* Examples for well-defined, commonly used property names are:
* DEVICE=b12:8 device identifier
* b12:8 block dev_t
* c127:3 char dev_t
* n8 netdev ifindex
* +sound:card0 subsystem:devname
* SUBSYSTEM=pci driver-core subsystem name
*
* Valid characters in property names are [a-zA-Z0-9.-_]. The plain text value
* follows directly after a '=' character. Every property is terminated by
* a '\0' character. The last property is not terminated.
*
* Example of a message structure:
* 0000 ff 8f 00 00 00 00 00 00 monotonic time in nsec
* 0008 34 00 record is 52 bytes long
* 000a 0b 00 text is 11 bytes long
* 000c 1f 00 dictionary is 23 bytes long
* 000e 03 00 LOG_KERN (facility) LOG_ERR (level)
* 0010 69 74 27 73 20 61 20 6c "it's a l"
* 69 6e 65 "ine"
* 001b 44 45 56 49 43 "DEVIC"
* 45 3d 62 38 3a 32 00 44 "E=b8:2\0D"
* 52 49 56 45 52 3d 62 75 "RIVER=bu"
* 67 "g"
* 0032 00 00 00 padding to next message header
*
* The 'struct log' buffer header must never be directly exported to
* userspace, it is a kernel-private implementation detail that might
* need to be changed in the future, when the requirements change.
*
* /dev/kmsg exports the structured data in the following line format:
* "level,sequnum,timestamp;<message text>\n"
*
* The optional key/value pairs are attached as continuation lines starting
* with a space character and terminated by a newline. All possible
* non-prinatable characters are escaped in the "\xff" notation.
*
* Users of the export format should ignore possible additional values
* separated by ',', and find the message after the ';' character.

printk: use mutex lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild Although syslog_seq and log_next_seq stuff are protected by logbuf_lock spin log, it's not enough. Say we have two processes A and B, and let syslog_seq = N, while log_next_seq = N + 1, and the two processes both come to syslog_print at almost the same time. And No matter which process get the spin lock first, it will increase syslog_seq by one, then release spin lock; thus later, another process increase syslog_seq by one again. In this case, syslog_seq is bigger than syslog_next_seq. And latter, it would make: wait_event_interruptiable(log_wait, syslog != log_next_seq) don't wait any more even there is no new write comes. Thus it introduce a infinite loop reading. I can easily see this kind of issue by the following steps: # cat /proc/kmsg # at meantime, I don't kill rsyslog # So they are the two processes. # xinit # I added drm.debug=6 in the kernel parameter line, # so that it will produce lots of message and let that # issue happen It's 100% reproducable on my side. And my disk will be filled up by /var/log/messages in a quite short time. So, introduce a mutex_lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild just like what devkmsg_read() does. It does fix this issue as expected. v2: use mutex_lock_interruptiable() instead (comments from Kay) Signed-off-by: Yuanhan Liu <yuanhan.liu@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Acked-By: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

printk: Enable the use of more than one CON_BOOT (early console) Today, register_console() assumes the following usage: - The first console to register with a flag set to CON_BOOT is the one and only bootconsole. - If another register_console() is called with an additional CON_BOOT, it is silently rejected. - As soon as a console without the CON_BOOT set calls registers the bootconsole is automatically unregistered. - Once there is a "real" console - register_console() will silently reject any consoles with it's CON_BOOT flag set. In many systems (alpha, blackfin, microblaze, mips, powerpc, sh, & x86), there are early_printk implementations, which use the CON_BOOT which come out serial ports, vga, usb, & memory buffers. In many embedded systems, it would be nice to have two bootconsoles - in case the primary fails, you always have access to a backup memory buffer - but this requires at least two CON_BOOT consoles... This patch enables that functionality.

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

printk: fix delayed messages from CPU hotplug events When a secondary CPU is being brought up, it is not uncommon for printk() to be invoked when cpu_online(smp_processor_id()) == 0. The case that I witnessed personally was on MIPS: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/30/4 If (can_use_console() == 0), printk() will spool its output to log_buf and it will be visible in "dmesg", but that output will NOT be echoed to the console until somebody calls release_console_sem() from a CPU that is online. Therefore, the boot time messages from the new CPU can get stuck in "limbo" for a long time, and might suddenly appear on the screen when a completely unrelated event (e.g. "eth0: link is down") occurs. This patch modifies the console code so that any pending messages are automatically flushed out to the console whenever a CPU hotplug operation completes successfully or aborts. The issue was seen on 2.6.34. Original patch by Kevin Cernekee with cleanups by akpm and additional fixes by Santosh Shilimkar. This patch superseeds https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1357/.

nohz: Fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus This patch fixes a hang observed with 2.6.32 kernels where timers got enqueued on offline cpus. printk_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call printk_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If printk_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. Easiest way to fix this is just to test if the current cpu is offline and call printk_tick() directly which clears the condition. Alternatively I tried a cpu hotplug notifier which would clear the condition, however between calling the notifier function and printk_needs_cpu() something could have called printk() again and the problem is back again. This seems to be the safest fix.

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

Fixes and cleanups for earlyprintk aka boot console The console subsystem already has an idea of a boot console, using the CON_BOOT flag. The implementation has some flaws though. The major problem is that presence of a boot console makes register_console() ignore any other console devices (unless explicitly specified on the kernel command line). This patch fixes the console selection code to *not* consider a boot console a full-featured one, so the first non-boot console registering will become the default console instead. This way the unregister call for the boot console in the register_console() function actually triggers and the handover from the boot console to the real console device works smoothly. Added a printk for the handover, so you know which console device the output goes to when the boot console stops printing messages. The disable_early_printk() call is obsolete with that patch, explicitly disabling the early console isn't needed any more as it works automagically with that patch. I've walked through the tree, dropped all disable_early_printk() instances found below arch/ and tagged the consoles with CON_BOOT if needed. The code is tested on x86, sh (thanks to Paul) and mips (thanks to Ralf). Changes to last version: Rediffed against -rc3, adapted to mips cleanups by Ralf, fixed "udbg-immortal" cmd line arg on powerpc.

[PATCH] CON_CONSDEV bit not set correctly on last console According to include/linux/console.h, CON_CONSDEV flag should be set on the last console specified on the boot command line: 86 #define CON_PRINTBUFFER (1) 87 #define CON_CONSDEV (2) /* Last on the command line */ 88 #define CON_ENABLED (4) 89 #define CON_BOOT (8) This does not currently happen if there is more than one console specified on the boot commandline. Instead, it gets set on the first console on the command line. This can cause problems for things like kdb that look for the CON_CONSDEV flag to see if the console is valid. Additionaly, it doesn't look like CON_CONSDEV is reassigned to the next preferred console at unregister time if the console being unregistered currently has that bit set. Example (from sn2 ia64): elilo vmlinuz root=<dev> console=ttyS0 console=ttySG0 in this case, the flags on ttySG console struct will be 0x4 (should be 0x6). Attached patch against bk fixes both issues for the cases I looked at. It uses selected_console (which gets incremented for each console specified on the command line) as the indicator of which console to set CON_CONSDEV on. When adding the console to the list, if the previous one had CON_CONSDEV set, it masks it out. Tested on ia64 and x86. The problem with the current behavior is it breaks overriding the default from the boot line. In the ia64 case, there may be a global append line defining console=a in elilo.conf. Then you want to boot your kernel, and want to override the default by passing console=b on the boot line. elilo constructs the kernel cmdline by starting with the value of the global append line, then tacks on whatever else you specify, which puts console=b last.

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

Fixes and cleanups for earlyprintk aka boot console The console subsystem already has an idea of a boot console, using the CON_BOOT flag. The implementation has some flaws though. The major problem is that presence of a boot console makes register_console() ignore any other console devices (unless explicitly specified on the kernel command line). This patch fixes the console selection code to *not* consider a boot console a full-featured one, so the first non-boot console registering will become the default console instead. This way the unregister call for the boot console in the register_console() function actually triggers and the handover from the boot console to the real console device works smoothly. Added a printk for the handover, so you know which console device the output goes to when the boot console stops printing messages. The disable_early_printk() call is obsolete with that patch, explicitly disabling the early console isn't needed any more as it works automagically with that patch. I've walked through the tree, dropped all disable_early_printk() instances found below arch/ and tagged the consoles with CON_BOOT if needed. The code is tested on x86, sh (thanks to Paul) and mips (thanks to Ralf). Changes to last version: Rediffed against -rc3, adapted to mips cleanups by Ralf, fixed "udbg-immortal" cmd line arg on powerpc.

[PATCH] CON_CONSDEV bit not set correctly on last console According to include/linux/console.h, CON_CONSDEV flag should be set on the last console specified on the boot command line: 86 #define CON_PRINTBUFFER (1) 87 #define CON_CONSDEV (2) /* Last on the command line */ 88 #define CON_ENABLED (4) 89 #define CON_BOOT (8) This does not currently happen if there is more than one console specified on the boot commandline. Instead, it gets set on the first console on the command line. This can cause problems for things like kdb that look for the CON_CONSDEV flag to see if the console is valid. Additionaly, it doesn't look like CON_CONSDEV is reassigned to the next preferred console at unregister time if the console being unregistered currently has that bit set. Example (from sn2 ia64): elilo vmlinuz root=<dev> console=ttyS0 console=ttySG0 in this case, the flags on ttySG console struct will be 0x4 (should be 0x6). Attached patch against bk fixes both issues for the cases I looked at. It uses selected_console (which gets incremented for each console specified on the command line) as the indicator of which console to set CON_CONSDEV on. When adding the console to the list, if the previous one had CON_CONSDEV set, it masks it out. Tested on ia64 and x86. The problem with the current behavior is it breaks overriding the default from the boot line. In the ia64 case, there may be a global append line defining console=a in elilo.conf. Then you want to boot your kernel, and want to override the default by passing console=b on the boot line. elilo constructs the kernel cmdline by starting with the value of the global append line, then tacks on whatever else you specify, which puts console=b last.

printk: fix delayed messages from CPU hotplug events When a secondary CPU is being brought up, it is not uncommon for printk() to be invoked when cpu_online(smp_processor_id()) == 0. The case that I witnessed personally was on MIPS: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/30/4 If (can_use_console() == 0), printk() will spool its output to log_buf and it will be visible in "dmesg", but that output will NOT be echoed to the console until somebody calls release_console_sem() from a CPU that is online. Therefore, the boot time messages from the new CPU can get stuck in "limbo" for a long time, and might suddenly appear on the screen when a completely unrelated event (e.g. "eth0: link is down") occurs. This patch modifies the console code so that any pending messages are automatically flushed out to the console whenever a CPU hotplug operation completes successfully or aborts. The issue was seen on 2.6.34. Original patch by Kevin Cernekee with cleanups by akpm and additional fixes by Santosh Shilimkar. This patch superseeds https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1357/.

printk: correct the behavior of printk_timed_ratelimit() Impact: fix jiffies-comparison sign-wrap behavior The behavior provided by printk_timed_ratelimit() is, in some situations, probably not what a caller would reasonably expect: bool printk_timed_ratelimit(unsigned long *caller_jiffies, unsigned int interval_msecs) { if (*caller_jiffies == 0 || time_after(jiffies, *caller_jiffies)) { *caller_jiffies = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(interval_msecs); return true; } return false; } On a 32 bit computer, if printk_timed_ratelimit() is initially called at time jiffies == Ja, *caller_jiffies is set to Ja + msecs_to_jiffies(interval_msecs): let's say Ja + 42 for this example. If this caller then doesn't call printk_timed_ratelimit() until jiffies == Ja + (1 << 31) + 42 (which can happen as soon as ~ 25 days later on a 1000 HZ system), printk_timed_ratelimit() will then always return false to this caller until jiffies loops completely (1 << 31 more ticks). Ths change makes it only return false if jiffies is in the small time window starting at the previous call when true was returned and ending interval_msecs later. Note that if jiffies loops completely between two calls to printk_timed_ratelimit(), it will obviously still wrongly return false, but this is something with a low probability. If something completely reliable is needed I guess jiffies_64 must be used (which this change does not do).

printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.
