Starting with v5.4.22 I noticed 'dmesg -w' stopped working on some
machines. dmesg will follow console output for a few seconds, then it
stops. strace indicates dmesg is blocked in read() on the /dev/kmsg fd.
If a new dmesg process starts, it gives messages for a few seconds,
then also stops. rsyslog's kernel logging is similarly affected.
Bisection points to this patch (now known as
1b710b1b10eff9d46666064ea25f079f70bc67a8 upstream). I can't reproduce
the problem on a test VM, and some machines are running v5.4.22..v5.4.26
with no dmesg problems. It seems there is some magic in the startup
sequence of affected machines. This code isn't executed after RNG is
seeded, so it would have to get its bad stuff done before that happens.
Reverting commit 1b710b1b10eff9d46666064ea25f079f70bc67a8 fixes the
dmesg regression on 5.4.26. It might put the original lockdep bug back,
but on machines running stable kernels, I prefer randomly broken lockdep
over repeatably broken dmesg.
