With commit 9e124fe1("xen: Enable console tty by default in domU if it's not a dummy") a hack was implemented to make sure that the tty console remains the console behind the /dev/console device. The main problem with the hack is that, after getting the console pointer to the tty console, it is assumed the pointer is still valid after releasing the console_sem. This assumption is incorrect and unsafe. Make the hack safe by introducing a new function console_force_preferred_locked() and perform the full operation under the console_list_lock.

The CON_ENABLED flag is being misused to track whether or not the extended console should be or has been registered. Instead use a local variable to decide if the extended console should be registered and console_is_registered() to determine if it has been registered. Also add a check in cleanup_netconsole() to only unregister the extended console if it has been registered.

The CON_ENABLED status of a console is a runtime setting that does not involve the console driver. Drivers must not assume that if the console is disabled then proper hardware management is not needed. For the EFI earlycon case, it is about remapping/unmapping memory for the framebuffer. Use console_is_registered() instead of checking CON_ENABLED.

Currently it is not possible for drivers to detect if they have already successfully registered their console. Several drivers have multiple paths that lead to console registration. To avoid attempting a 2nd registration (which leads to a WARN), drivers are implementing their own solution. Introduce console_is_registered() so drivers can easily identify if their console is currently registered. A _locked() variant is also provided if the caller is already holding the console_list_lock.

Guarantee safe iteration of the console list by using SRCU. Note that in the case of a handover, the SRCU read lock is also released. This is documented in the function description and as comments in the code. It is a bit tricky, but this preserves the lockdep lock ordering for the context handing over the console_lock: console_lock() | mutex_acquire(&console_lock_dep_map) <-- console lock | console_unlock() | console_flush_all() | | srcu_read_lock(&console_srcu) <-- srcu lock | | console_emit_next_record() | | | console_lock_spinning_disable_and_check() | | | | srcu_read_unlock(&console_srcu) <-- srcu unlock | | | | mutex_release(&console_lock_dep_map) <-- console unlock Signed-off-by: John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221116162152.193147-16-john.ogness@linutronix.de

After switching to SRCU for console list iteration, some readers will begin readings console->flags as a data race. Locklessly reading console->flags provides a consistent value because there is at most one CPU modifying console->flags and that CPU is using only read-modify-write operations. Introduce a wrapper for SRCU iterators to read console flags. Introduce a matching wrapper to write to flags of registered consoles. Writing to flags of registered consoles is synchronized by the console_list_lock.

Currently there exist races in register_console(), where the types of registered consoles are checked (without holding the console_lock) and then after acquiring the console_lock, it is assumed that the list has not changed. Also, some code that performs console_unregister() make similar assumptions. It might be possible to fix these races using the console_lock. But it would require a complex analysis of all console drivers to make sure that the console_lock is not taken in match() and setup() callbacks. And we really prefer to split up and reduce the responsibilities of console_lock rather than expand its complexity. Therefore, introduce a new console_list_lock to provide full synchronization for any console list changes. In addition, also use console_list_lock for synchronization of console->flags updates. All flags are either static or modified only during the console registration. There are only two exceptions. The first exception is CON_ENABLED, which is also modified by console_start()/console_stop(). Therefore, these functions must also take the console_list_lock. The second exception is when the flags are modified by the console driver init code before the console is registered. These will be ignored because they are not visible to the rest of the system via the console_drivers list. Note that one of the various responsibilities of the console_lock is also intended to provide console list and console->flags synchronization. Later changes will update call sites relying on the console_lock for these purposes. Once all call sites have been updated, the console_lock will be relieved of synchronizing console_list and console->flags updates.

The initial intention of the UML kmsg_dumper is to dump the kernel buffers to stdout if there is no console available to perform the regular crash output. However, if ttynull was registered as a console, no crash output was seen. Commit e23fe90d ("um: kmsg_dumper: always dump when not tty console") tried to fix this by performing the kmsg_dump unless the stdio console was behind /dev/console or enabled. But this allowed kmsg dumping to occur even if other non-stdio consoles will output the crash output. Also, a console being the driver behind /dev/console has nothing to do with a crash scenario. Restore the initial intention by dumping the kernel buffers to stdout only if a non-ttynull console is registered and enabled. Also add detailed comments so that it is clear why these rules are applied.

It used to be that all consoles were synchronized with respect to which message they were printing. After commit a699449b ("printk: refactor and rework printing logic"), all consoles have their own @seq for tracking which message they are on. That commit also changed how the initial sequence number was chosen. Instead of choosing the next non-printed message, it chose the sequence number of the next message that will be added to the ringbuffer. That change created a possibility that a non-boot console taking over for a boot console might skip messages if the boot console was behind and did not have a chance to catch up before being unregistered. Since it is not known which boot console is the same device, flush all consoles and, if necessary, start with the message of the enabled boot console that is the furthest behind. If no boot consoles are enabled, begin with the next message that will be added to the ringbuffer. Also, since boot consoles are meant to be used at boot time, handle them the same as CON_PRINTBUFFER to ensure that no initial messages are skipped.

Kernels configured with CONFIG_PRINTK=n and CONFIG_SRCU=n get build failures. This causes trouble for deep embedded systems. But given that there are more than 25 instances of "select SRCU" in the kernel, it is hard to believe that there are many kernels running in production without SRCU. This commit therefore makes SRCU mandatory. The SRCU Kconfig option remains for backwards compatibility, and will be removed when it is no longer used.

Using the NMI-unsafe reader API from within an NMI handler is very likely to be buggy for three reasons: 1) NMIs aren't strictly re-entrant (a pending nested NMI will execute at the end of the current one) so it should be fine to use a non-atomic increment here. However, breakpoints can still interrupt NMIs and if a breakpoint callback has a reader on that same ssp, a racy increment can happen. 2) If the only reader site for a given srcu_struct structure is in an NMI handler, then RCU should be used instead of SRCU. 3) Because of the previous reason (2), an srcu_struct structure having an SRCU read side critical section in an NMI handler is likely to have another one from a task context. For all these reasons, warn if an NMI-unsafe reader API is used from an NMI handler.

The s390 architecture uses either a cmpxchg loop (old systems) or the laa add-to-memory instruction (new systems) to implement this_cpu_add(), both of which are NMI safe. This means that the old and more-efficient srcu_read_lock() may be used in NMI context, without the need for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe(). Therefore, add the new Kconfig option ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS to arch/s390/Kconfig, which will cause NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE to be deselected, thus preserving the current srcu_read_lock() behavior.

The loongarch architecture uses the atomic read-modify-write amadd instruction to implement this_cpu_add(), which is NMI safe. This means that the old and more-efficient srcu_read_lock() may be used in NMI context, without the need for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe(). Therefore, add the new Kconfig option ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS to arch/loongarch/Kconfig, which will cause NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE to be deselected, thus preserving the current srcu_read_lock() behavior.
