Hi,

This is the next part of our printk-rework effort (points 3 and
4 of the LPC 2019 summary [0]).

Here the concept of "atomic consoles" is introduced through  a
new (optional) write_atomic() callback for console drivers. This
callback must be implemented as an NMI-safe variant of the
write() callback, meaning that it can function from any context
without relying on questionable tactics such as ignoring locking
and also without relying on the synchronization of console
semaphore.

As an example of how such an atomic console can look like, this
series implements write_atomic() for the 8250 UART driver.

This series also introduces a new console printing mode called
"sync mode" that is only activated when the kernel is about to
end (such as panic, oops, shutdown, reboot). Sync mode can only
be activated if atomic consoles are available. A system without
registered atomic consoles will be unaffected by this series.

When in sync mode, the console printing behavior becomes:

- only consoles implementing write_atomic() will be called

- printing occurs within vprintk_store() instead of
  console_unlock(), since the console semaphore is irrelevant
  for atomic consoles

For systems that have registered atomic consoles, this series
improves the reliability of seeing crash messages by using new
locking techniques rather than "ignoring locks and hoping for
the best". In particular, atomic consoles rely on the
CPU-reentrant spinlock (i.e. the printk cpulock) for
synchronizing console output.

Implement an NMI-safe write_atomic() console function in order to
support synchronous console printing.

Since interrupts need to be disabled during transmit, all usage of
the IER register is wrapped with access functions that use the
printk cpulock to synchronize register access while tracking the
state of the interrupts. This is necessary because write_atomic()
can be called from an NMI context that has preempted write_atomic().

If console is runtime suspended, who will bring it up?
Does it mean that this callback can't be implemented on the consoles that
do runtime suspend (some of 8250 currently, for example)?

I would rewrite it as

	if (uart_console()) {
		console_atomic_cpu_lock(flags);
		serial_out(up, UART_IER, ier);
		console_atomic_cpu_unlock(flags);
	} else {
		serial_out(up, UART_IER, ier);
	}

No additional variable, easier to get the algorithm on the first glance, less
error prone.

I'm wondering why you can't call above function here?

Ditto.

Looking into above note, that uart_console(port) can give different results
here, AFAIR.

Yes, the original is terrible.

Another option:

bool locked = console_atomic_cpu_lock(flags, uart_console());
serial_out(up, UART_IER, ier);
console_atomic_cpu_unlock(flags, locked);


Which makes console_atomic_cpu_lock to lock only if second parameter is 
true and return its value too.

BTW I actually don't know what console_atomic_cpu_lock does to think 
about it more as I was not CCed, and neither lore sees the other patches:

Some locations have more than just 1 line of code in between
lock/unlock. I agree this looks better, but am unsure how much
copy/paste code is acceptable.

I am not sure how common such semantics for lock/unlock functions
are. But since this pattern, using uart_console(), will most likely be a
common pattern for atomic consoles, I can see how this will be useful.

I will choose one of these 2 suggestions for v2. Thanks.

I am fine with the new behavior at this stage. It is a quite clear
win when (only) the atomic console is used. And it does not make any
difference when atomic consoles are disabled.

But I am not sure about the proposed terms and implementation.
I want to be sure that we are on the right way for introducing
console kthreads.

Let me try to compare the behavior:

1. before this patchset():

	/* printk: store immediately; try all consoles immediately */
	int printk(...)
	{
		vprintk_store();
		if (console_try_lock()) {
			/* flush pending messages to the consoles */
			console_unlock();
		}
	}

	/* panic: try hard to flush messages to the consoles and avoid deadlock */
	void panic()
	{
		/* Ignore locks in console drivers */
		bust_spinlocks(1);

		printk("Kernel panic ...);
		dump_stack();

		smp_send_stop();
		/* ignore console lock */
		console_flush_on_panic();
	}


2. after this patchset():

   + same as before in normal mode or when there is no atomic console

   + in panic with atomic console; it modifies the behavior:

	/*
	 * printk: store immediately; immediately flush atomic consoles;
	 *         unsafe consoles are not used anymore;
	 */
	int printk(...)
	{
		vprintk_store();
		flush_atomic_consoles();
	}

	/* panic: no hacks; only atomic consoles are used */
	void panic()
	{
		printk("Kernel panic ...);
		dump_stack();
	}


3. After introducing console kthread(s):

	int printk(...)
	{
		vprintk_store();
		wake_consoles_via_irqwork();
	}

	+ in panic:

	    + with atomic console like after this patchset?
	    + without atomic consoles?

	+ during early boot?


I guess that we will need another sync mode for the early boot,
panic, suspend, kexec, etc.. It must be posible to debug these states
even wihtout atomic console and working kthreads.

Best Regards,
Petr

I guess I'd also add netconsole to the list.
