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 commitdbdda842fe
("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. Fixes:dbdda842fe
