* | printk: Wake up klogd using irq_workFrederic Weisbecker2012-11-17
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | klogd is woken up asynchronously from the tick in order to do it safely. However if printk is called when the tick is stopped, the reader won't be woken up until the next interrupt, which might not fire for a while. As a result, the user may miss some message. To fix this, lets implement the printk tick using a lazy irq work. This subsystem takes care of the timer tick state and can fix up accordingly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Support for multiple concurrent readers of /dev/kmsg, with read(), seek(), poll() support. Output of message sequence numbers, to allow userspace log consumers to reliably reconnect and reconstruct their state at any given time. After open("/dev/kmsg"), read() always returns *all* buffered records. If only future messages should be read, SEEK_END can be used. In case records get overwritten while /dev/kmsg is held open, or records get faster overwritten than they are read, the next read() will return -EPIPE and the current reading position gets updated to the next available record. The passed sequence numbers allow the log consumer to calculate the amount of lost messages.

* printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record bufferKay Sievers2012-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility and priority in the record header. - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed. The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for the timestamp and a newline. - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time of reading. - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk() is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line. - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is defined, honor it over DEBUG, so that pr_debug()s are controllable, instead of always-on.

Also adding _DPRINTK_FLAGS_INCL_MODNAME would be nice, but there are numerous cases of pr_debug(NAME ": ...), which would result in double printing of module-name. So defer this until things settle.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a few awkward printk()s inside of scheduler guts that people prefer to keep but really are rather deadlock prone. Fudge around it by storing the text in a per-cpu buffer and poll it using the existing printk_tick() handler.

* kptr_restrict for hiding kernel pointers from unprivileged usersDan Rosenberg2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict sysctl. The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers, specifically via /proc interfaces. Exposing these pointers provides an easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function pointers. The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl. If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior occurs. If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user (intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG (currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's. If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's regardless of privileges. Replacing with 0's was chosen over the default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects "(nil)".
