This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled printk: For @suppress_panic_printk check for other CPU in panic to the 6.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: printk-for-suppress_panic_printk-check-for-other-cpu.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 71ae9b330f906cb7e8c43e1fd0c7136e54bc0034 Author: John Ogness <john.ogness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Feb 7 14:46:55 2024 +0106 printk: For @suppress_panic_printk check for other CPU in panic [ Upstream commit 0ab7cdd00491b532591ef065be706301de7e448f ] Currently @suppress_panic_printk is checked along with non-matching @panic_cpu and current CPU. This works because @suppress_panic_printk is only set when panic_in_progress() is true. Rather than relying on the @suppress_panic_printk semantics, use the concise helper function other_cpu_in_progress(). The helper function exists to avoid open coding such tests.
