[ Upstream commit 48021f98130880dd74286459a1ef48b5e9bc374f ]
If uboot passes a blank string to console_setup then it results in
a trashed memory. Ultimately, the kernel crashes during freeing up
the memory.
This fix checks if there is a blank parameter being
passed to console_setup from uboot. In case it detects that
the console parameter is blank then it doesn't setup the serial
device and it gracefully exits.

commit ab6f762f0f53162d41497708b33c9a3236d3609e upstream.
printk_deferred(), similarly to printk_safe/printk_nmi, does not
immediately attempt to print a new message on the consoles, avoiding
calls into non-reentrant kernel paths, e.g. scheduler or timekeeping,
which potentially can deadlock the system.
Those printk() flavors, instead, rely on per-CPU flush irq_work to print
messages from safer contexts. For same reasons (recursive scheduler or
timekeeping calls) printk() uses per-CPU irq_work in order to wake up
user space syslog/kmsg readers.
However, only printk_safe/printk_nmi do make sure that per-CPU areas
have been initialised and that it's safe to modify per-CPU irq_work.
This means that, for instance, should printk_deferred() be invoked "too
early", that is before per-CPU areas are initialised, printk_deferred()
will perform illegal per-CPU access.
Lech Perczak [0] reports that after commit 1b710b1b10ef ("char/random:
silence a lockdep splat with printk()") user-space syslog/kmsg readers
are not able to read new kernel messages.
The reason is printk_deferred() being called too early (as was pointed
out by Petr and John).
Fix printk_deferred() and do not queue per-CPU irq_work before per-CPU
areas are initialized.

Commit f92b070f2dc8 ("printk: Do not miss new messages when replaying
the log") introduced a new variable @exclusive_console_stop_seq to
store when an exclusive console should stop printing. It should be
set to the @console_seq value at registration. However, @console_seq
is previously set to @syslog_seq so that the exclusive console knows
where to begin. This results in the exclusive console immediately
reactivating all the other consoles and thus repeating the messages
for those consoles.
Set @console_seq after @exclusive_console_stop_seq has stored the
current @console_seq value.

The way we calculate logbuf free space percentage overflows signed
integer:
int free;
free = __LOG_BUF_LEN - log_next_idx;
pr_info("early log buf free: %u(%u%%)\n",
free, (free * 100) / __LOG_BUF_LEN);
We support LOG_BUF_LEN of up to 1<<25 bytes. Since setup_log_buf() is
called during early init, logbuf is mostly empty, so
__LOG_BUF_LEN - log_next_idx
is close to 1<<25. Thus when we multiply it by 100, we overflow signed
integer value range: 100 is 2^6 + 2^5 + 2^2.
Example, booting with LOG_BUF_LEN 1<<25 and log_buf_len=2G
boot param:
[ 0.075317] log_buf_len: -2147483648 bytes
[ 0.075319] early log buf free: 33549896(-28%)
Make "free" unsigned integer and use appropriate printk() specifier.

Prior to commit 5c2992ee7f ("printk: remove console flushing special
cases for partial buffered lines") we would do console_cont_flush()
for each pr_cont() to print cont fragments, so console_unlock() would
actually print data:
pr_cont();
console_lock();
console_unlock()
console_cont_flush(); // print cont fragment
...
pr_cont();
console_lock();
console_unlock()
console_cont_flush(); // print cont fragment
We don't do console_cont_flush() anymore, so when we do pr_cont()
console_unlock() does nothing (unless we flushed the cont buffer):
pr_cont();
console_lock();
console_unlock(); // noop
...
pr_cont();
console_lock();
console_unlock(); // noop
...
pr_cont();
cont_flush();
console_lock();
console_unlock(); // print data
We also wakeup klogd purposelessly for pr_cont() output - un-flushed
cont buffer is not stored in log_buf; there is nothing to pull.
Thus we can console_lock()/console_unlock()/wake_up_klogd() only when
we know that we log_store()-ed a message and there is something to
print to the consoles/syslog.

[ Upstream commit 884e370ea88c109a3b982f4eb9ecd82510a3a1fe ]
CON_PRINTBUFFER console registration requires us to do several
preparation steps:
- Rollback console_seq to replay logbuf messages which were already
seen on other consoles;
- Set exclusive_console flag so console_unlock() will ->write() logbuf
messages only to the exclusive_console driver.
The way we do it, however, is a bit racy
logbuf_lock_irqsave(flags);
console_seq = syslog_seq;
console_idx = syslog_idx;
logbuf_unlock_irqrestore(flags);
<< preemption enabled
<< irqs enabled
exclusive_console = newcon;
console_unlock();
We rollback console_seq under logbuf_lock with IRQs disabled, but
we set exclusive_console with local IRQs enabled and logbuf unlocked.
If the system oops-es or panic-s before we set exclusive_console - and
given that we have IRQs and preemption enabled there is such a
possibility - we will re-play all logbuf messages to every registered
console, which may be a bit annoying and time consuming.
Move exclusive_console assignment to the same IRQs-disabled and
logbuf_lock-protected section where we rollback console_seq.

The variable "exclusive_console" is used to reply all existing messages
on a newly registered console. It is cleared when all messages are out.
The problem is that new messages might appear in the meantime. These
are then visible only on the exclusive console.
The obvious solution is to clear "exclusive_console" after we replay
all messages that were already proceed before we started the reply.

commit c9dccacfccc72c32692eedff4a27a4b0833a2afd upstream.
kmsg_dump_get_buffer() is supposed to select all the youngest log
messages which fit into the provided buffer. It determines the correct
start index by using msg_print_text() with a NULL buffer to calculate
the size of each entry. However, when performing the actual writes,
msg_print_text() only writes the entry to the buffer if the written len
is lesser than the size of the buffer. So if the lengths of the
selected youngest log messages happen to precisely fill up the provided
buffer, the last log message is not included.
We don't want to modify msg_print_text() to fill up the buffer and start
returning a length which is equal to the size of the buffer, since
callers of its other users, such as kmsg_dump_get_line(), depend upon
the current behaviour.
Instead, fix kmsg_dump_get_buffer() to compensate for this.
For example, with the following two final prints:
[ 6.427502] AAAAAAAAAAAAA
[ 6.427769] BBBBBBBB12345

"Revert a commit that caused "quiet", "debug", and "loglevel" early
parameters to be ignored for early boot messages"
* tag 'printk-for-4.19-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk:
Revert "printk: make sure to print log on console."
This reverts commit 375899cddc.
The visibility of early messages did not longer take into account
"quiet", "debug", and "loglevel" early parameters.
It would be possible to invalidate and recompute LOG_NOCONS flag
for the affected messages. But it would be hairy.
Instead this patch just reverts the problematic commit. We could
come up with a better solution for the original problem. For example,
we could simplify the logic and just mark messages that should always
be visible or always invisible on the console.
Also this patch reverts the related build fix commit ffaa619af1
("printk: Fix warning about unused suppress_message_printing").
Finally, this patch does not put back the unused LOG_NOCONS flag.

After a bit of debugging, I found what was happening. This would trigger
when performing "perf" with a high NMI interrupt rate, while enabling and
disabling function tracer. Ftrace uses breakpoints to convert the nops at
the start of functions to calls to the function trampolines. The breakpoint
traps disable interrupts and this makes calls into lockdep via the
trace_hardirqs_off_thunk in the entry.S code. What happens is the following:
do_idle {
[interrupts enabled]
<interrupt> [interrupts disabled]
TRACE_IRQS_OFF [lockdep says irqs off]
[...]
TRACE_IRQS_IRET
test if pt_regs say return to interrupts enabled [yes]
TRACE_IRQS_ON [lockdep says irqs are on]
<nmi>
nmi_enter() {
printk_nmi_enter() [traced by ftrace]
[ hit ftrace breakpoint ]
<breakpoint exception>
TRACE_IRQS_OFF [lockdep says irqs off]
[...]
TRACE_IRQS_IRET [return from breakpoint]
test if pt_regs say interrupts enabled [no]
[iret back to interrupt]
[iret back to code]
tick_nohz_idle_enter() {
lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled() [lockdep say no!]
Although interrupts are indeed enabled, lockdep thinks it is not, and since
we now do asserts via lockdep, it gives a false warning. The issue here is
that printk_nmi_enter() is called before lockdep_off(), which disables
lockdep (for this reason) in NMIs. By simply not allowing ftrace to see
printk_nmi_enter() (via notrace annotation) we keep lockdep from getting
confused.

are for udlfb and pxafb drivers). This also adds deferred console
takeover support to the console code and efifb driver.
Summary:
- add support for deferred console takeover, when enabled defers
fbcon taking over the console from the dummy console until the
first text is displayed on the console - together with the "quiet"
kernel commandline option this allows fbcon to still be used
together with a smooth graphical bootup (Hans de Goede)
- improve console locking debugging code (Thomas Zimmermann)
- copy the ACPI BGRT boot graphics to the framebuffer when deferred
console takeover support is used in efifb driver (Hans de Goede)
- update udlfb driver - fix lost console when the user unplugs a USB
adapter, fix the screen corruption issue, fix locking and add some
performance optimizations (Mikulas Patocka)
- update pxafb driver - fix using uninitialized memory, switch to
devm_* API, handle initialization errors and add support for
lcd-supply regulator (Daniel Mack)
- add support for boards booted with a DeviceTree in pxa3xx_gcu
driver (Daniel Mack)
- rename omap2 module to omap2fb.ko to avoid conflicts with omap1
driver (Arnd Bergmann)
- enable ACPI-based enumeration for goldfishfb driver (Yu Ning)
- fix goldfishfb driver to make user space Android code use 60 fps
(Christoffer Dall)
- print big fat warning when nomodeset kernel parameter is used in
vgacon driver (Lyude Paul)
- remove VLA usage from fsl-diu-fb driver (Kees Cook)
- misc fixes (Julia Lawall, Geert Uytterhoeven, Fredrik Noring,
Yisheng Xie, Dan Carpenter, Daniel Vetter, Anton Vasilyev, Randy
Dunlap, Gustavo A. R. Silva, Colin Ian King, Fengguang Wu)
- misc cleanups (Roman Kiryanov, Yisheng Xie, Colin Ian King)"

The macro WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED prints a warning when a thread enters
the console's critical section without having acquired the console
lock. The console lock can be ignored when debugging the console using
printk, but this makes WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED generate unnecessary
warnings.
The variable ignore_console_lock_warning temporarily disables
WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED. Developers interested in debugging the console's
critical sections should increment it before entering the CS and
decrement it after leaving the CS. Setting ignore_console_lock_warning
is only for debugging. Regular operation should not manipulate it.
Acknoledgements: This patch is based on an earlier version by Steven
Rostedt. The use of atomic increment/decrement was suggested by Petr
Mladek.

The commit 719f6a7040 ("printk: Use the main logbuf in NMI
when logbuf_lock is available") brought back the possible deadlocks
in printk() and NMI.
The check of logbuf_lock is done only in printk_nmi_enter() to prevent
mixed output. But another CPU might take the lock later, enter NMI, and:
+ Both NMIs might be serialized by yet another lock, for example,
the one in nmi_cpu_backtrace().
+ The other CPU might get stopped in NMI, see smp_send_stop()
in panic().
The only safe solution is to use trylock when storing the message
into the main log-buffer. It might cause reordering when some lines
go to the main lock buffer directly and others are delayed via
the per-CPU buffer. It means that it is not useful in general.
This patch replaces the problematic NMI deferred context with NMI
direct context. It can be used to mark a code that might produce
many messages in NMI and the risk of losing them is more critical
than problems with eventual reordering.
The context is then used when dumping trace buffers on oops. It was
the primary motivation for the original fix. Also the reordering is
even smaller issue there because some traces have their own time stamps.
Finally, nmi_cpu_backtrace() need not longer be serialized because
it will always us the per-CPU buffers again.

This patch make sure printing of log on console if loglevel
at time of storing log is less than current console loglevel.
@why
In SMP printk can work asynchronously, logs can be missed on console
because it checks current log level at time of console_unlock,
not at time of storing logs.
func()
{
....
....
console_verbose(); // user wants to have all the logs on console.
pr_alert();
dump_backtrace(); //prints with default loglevel.
...
console_silent(); // stop all logs from printing on console.
}
Now if console_lock was owned by another process, the messages might
be handled after the consoles were silenced.
Reused flag LOG_NOCONS as its usage is gone long back by the commit
5c2992ee7f ("printk: remove console flushing special cases
for partial buffered lines").
Note that there are still some corner cases where this patch is not enough.
For example, when the messages are flushed later from printk_safe buffers
or when there are races between console_verbose() and console_silent()
callers.

Otherwise, theoretically, we can deadlock on logbuf trying to flush
per-CPU buffers:
a) Panic CPU is running in non-NMI context
b) Panic CPU sends out shutdown IPI via reboot vector
c) Panic CPU fails to stop all remote CPUs
d) Panic CPU sends out shutdown IPI via NMI vector
One of the CPUs that we bring down via NMI vector can hold
logbuf spin lock (theoretically).

We wake up klogd very late - only when current console_sem owner
is done pushing pending kernel messages to the serial/net consoles.
In some cases this results in lost syslog messages, because kernel
log buffer is a circular buffer and if we don't wakeup syslog long
enough there are chances that logbuf simply will wrap around.
The patch moves the klogd wake up call to vprintk_emit(), which is
the only legit way for a kernel message to appear in the logbuf,
right after the attempt to handle consoles. As a result, klogd
will get waken either after flushing the new message to consoles
or immediately when consoles are still busy with older messages.

Adds triggers "onmatch" and "onmax" to call the synthetic events
Several updates to the histogram code from this
- Allow way to nest ring buffer calls in the same context
- Allow absolute time stamps in ring buffer
- Rewrite of filter code parsing based on Al Viro's suggestions
- Setting of trace_clock to global if TSC is unstable (on boot)
- Better OOM handling when allocating large ring buffers

dump_stack related stuff should belong to lib/dump_stack.c thus move them
there. Also conditionally compile lib/dump_stack.c since dump_stack code
does not make sense if printk is disabled.

Pull printk fix from Petr Mladek:
"Make sure that we wake up userspace loggers. This fixes a race
introduced by the console waiter logic during this merge window"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk:
printk: Wake klogd when passing console_lock owner
wake_klogd is a local variable in console_unlock(). The information
is lost when the console_lock owner using the busy wait added by
the commit dbdda842fe ("printk: Add console owner and waiter
logic to load balance console writes"). The following race is
possible:
CPU0 CPU1
console_unlock()
for (;;)
/* calling console for last message */
printk()
log_store()
log_next_seq++;
/* see new message */
if (seen_seq != log_next_seq) {
wake_klogd = true;
seen_seq = log_next_seq;
}
console_lock_spinning_enable();
if (console_trylock_spinning())
/* spinning */
if (console_lock_spinning_disable_and_check()) {
printk_safe_exit_irqrestore(flags);
return;
console_unlock()
if (seen_seq != log_next_seq) {
/* already seen */
/* nothing to do */
Result: Nobody would wakeup klogd.
One solution would be to make a global variable from wake_klogd.
But then we would need to manipulate it under a lock or so.
This patch wakes klogd also when console_lock is passed to the
spinning waiter. It looks like the right way to go. Also userspace
should have a chance to see and store any "flood" of messages.
Note that the very late klogd wake up was a historic solution.
It made sense on single CPU systems or when sys_syslog() operations
were synchronized using the big kernel lock like in v2.1.113.
But it is questionable these days.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*

for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

This patch, basically, reverts commit 6b97a20d3a ("printk:
set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers").
That commit was a mistake, it introduced a big dependency
on the scheduler, by enabling preemption under console_sem
in printk()->console_unlock() path, which is rather too
critical. The patch did not significantly reduce the
possibilities of printk() lockups, but made it possible to
stall printk(), as has been reported by Tetsuo Handa [1].
Another issues is that preemption under console_sem also
messes up with Steven Rostedt's hand off scheme, by making
it possible to sleep with console_sem both in console_unlock()
and in vprintk_emit(), after acquiring the console_sem
ownership (anywhere between printk_safe_exit_irqrestore() in
console_trylock_spinning() and printk_safe_enter_irqsave()
in console_unlock()). This makes hand off less likely and,
at the same time, may result in a significant amount of
pending logbuf messages. Preempted console_sem owner makes
it impossible for other CPUs to emit logbuf messages, but
does not make it impossible for other CPUs to append new
messages to the logbuf.
Reinstate the old behavior and make printk() non-preemptible.
Should any printk() lockup reports arrive they must be handled
in a different way.

The commit ("printk: Add console owner and waiter logic to load balance
console writes") made vprintk_emit() and console_unlock() even more
complicated.
This patch extracts the new code into 3 helper functions. They should
help to keep it rather self-contained. It will be easier to use and
maintain.
This patch just shuffles the existing code. It does not change
the functionality.

This patch implements what I discussed in Kernel Summit. I added
lockdep annotation (hopefully correctly), and it hasn't had any splats
(since I fixed some bugs in the first iterations). It did catch
problems when I had the owner covering too much. But now that the owner
is only set when actively calling the consoles, lockdep has stayed
quiet.
Here's the design again:
I added a "console_owner" which is set to a task that is actively
writing to the consoles. It is *not* the same as the owner of the
console_lock. It is only set when doing the calls to the console
functions. It is protected by a console_owner_lock which is a raw spin
lock.
There is a console_waiter. This is set when there is an active console
owner that is not current, and waiter is not set. This too is protected
by console_owner_lock.
In printk() when it tries to write to the consoles, we have:
if (console_trylock())
console_unlock();
Now I added an else, which will check if there is an active owner, and
no current waiter. If that is the case, then console_waiter is set, and
the task goes into a spin until it is no longer set.
When the active console owner finishes writing the current message to
the consoles, it grabs the console_owner_lock and sees if there is a
waiter, and clears console_owner.
If there is a waiter, then it breaks out of the loop, clears the waiter
flag (because that will release the waiter from its spin), and exits.
Note, it does *not* release the console semaphore. Because it is a
semaphore, there is no owner. Another task may release it. This means
that the waiter is guaranteed to be the new console owner! Which it
becomes.
Then the waiter calls console_unlock() and continues to write to the
consoles.
If another task comes along and does a printk() it too can become the
new waiter, and we wash rinse and repeat!
By Petr Mladek about possible new deadlocks:
The thing is that we move console_sem only to printk() call
that normally calls console_unlock() as well. It means that
the transferred owner should not bring new type of dependencies.
As Steven said somewhere: "If there is a deadlock, it was
there even before."
We could look at it from this side. The possible deadlock would
look like:
CPU0 CPU1
console_unlock()
console_owner = current;
spin_lockA()
printk()
spin = true;
while (...)
call_console_drivers()
spin_lockA()
This would be a deadlock. CPU0 would wait for the lock A.
While CPU1 would own the lockA and would wait for CPU0
to finish calling the console drivers and pass the console_sem
owner.
But if the above is true than the following scenario was
already possible before:
CPU0
spin_lockA()
printk()
console_unlock()
call_console_drivers()
spin_lockA()
By other words, this deadlock was there even before. Such
deadlocks are prevented by using printk_deferred() in
the sections guarded by the lock A.
By Steven Rostedt:
To demonstrate the issue, this module has been shown to lock up a
system with 4 CPUs and a slow console (like a serial console). It is
also able to lock up a 8 CPU system with only a fast (VGA) console, by
passing in "loops=100". The changes in this commit prevent this module
from locking up the system.

0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort
of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect
and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the
kernel logs from:
a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg
This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note)
and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly
simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages.
b) serial consoles
This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages
don't contain facility and log level.
This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option,
to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles.
For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog.
The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the
"syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog
format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and
`cat /proc/kmsg' output formats:
- facility and log level
- time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME)
- message
<%u>[time stamp] text\n
NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually
"dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per
Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog
format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format,
thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw".
Per Kevin Hilman:
: Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup,
: but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to
: have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels
: in default boot log.
:
: This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced
: search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic
: Search, Logstash, Kibana).
:
: The other important reason for having this on the command line is that
: for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches),
: it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run
: "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.) So we really want this on the primary
: boot (serial) console.
Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that
feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable
parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]:
`#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern :(err |crit |alert |emerg )'
instead of doing text pattern matching
`#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} |
grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern |

Geert Uytterhoeven reported a NFS oops, and pointed out that some of the
numbers were hashed and useless.
We could just turn them from '%p' into '%px', but those numbers are
really just legacy, and useless even when not hashed.
So just remove them entirely.
