Merge tag 'printk-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Another preparation step for introducing printk kthreads. The main piece is a per-console lock with several features: - Support three priorities: normal, emergency, and panic. They will be defined by a context where the lock is taken. A context with a higher priority is allowed to take over the lock from a context with a lower one. The plan is to use the emergency context for Oops and WARN() messages, and also by watchdogs. The panic() context will be used on panic CPU. - The owner might enter/exit regions where it is not safe to take over the lock. It allows the take over the lock a safe way in the middle of a message. For example, serial drivers emit characters one by one. And the serial port is in a safe state in between. Only the final console_flush_in_panic() will be allowed to take over the lock even in the unsafe state (last chance, pray, and hope). - A higher priority context might busy wait with a timeout. The current owner is informed about the waiter and releases the lock on exit from the unsafe state. - The new lock is safe even in atomic contexts, including NMI. Another change is a safe manipulation of per-console sequence number counter under the new lock. - simple_strntoull() micro-optimization - Reduce pr_flush() pooling time. - Calm down false warning about possible buffer invalid access to console buffers when CONFIG_PRINTK is disabled. [ .. and Thomas Gleixner wants to point out that while several of the commits are attributed to him, he only authored the early versions of said commits, and that John Ogness and Petr Mladek have been the ones who sorted out the details and really should be those who get the credit - Linus ] * tag 'printk-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux: vsprintf: uninline simple_strntoull(), reorder arguments printk: printk: Remove unnecessary statements'len = 0;' printk: Reduce pr_flush() pooling time printk: fix illegal pbufs access for !CONFIG_PRINTK printk: nbcon: Allow drivers to mark unsafe regions and check state printk: nbcon: Add emit function and callback function for atomic printing printk: nbcon: Add sequence handling printk: nbcon: Add ownership state functions printk: nbcon: Add buffer management printk: Make static printk buffers available to nbcon printk: nbcon: Add acquire/release logic printk: Add non-BKL (nbcon) console basic infrastructure
