4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx> commit bfeda41d06d85ad9d52f2413cfc2b77be5022f75 upstream. Since KERN_CONT became meaningful again, lockdep stack traces have had annoying extra newlines, like this: [ 5.561122] -> #1 (B){+.+...}: [ 5.561528] [ 5.561532] [<ffffffff810d8873>] lock_acquire+0xc3/0x210 [ 5.562178] [ 5.562181] [<ffffffff816f6414>] mutex_lock_nested+0x74/0x6d0 [ 5.562861] [ 5.562880] [<ffffffffa01aa3c3>] init_btrfs_fs+0x21/0x196 [btrfs] [ 5.563717] [ 5.563721] [<ffffffff81000472>] do_one_initcall+0x52/0x1b0 [ 5.564554] [ 5.564559] [<ffffffff811a3af6>] do_init_module+0x5f/0x209 [ 5.565357] [ 5.565361] [<ffffffff81122f4d>] load_module+0x218d/0x2b80 [ 5.566020] [ 5.566021] [<ffffffff81123beb>] SyS_finit_module+0xeb/0x120 [ 5.566694] [ 5.566696] [<ffffffff816fd241>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xc2 That's happening because each printk() call now gets printed on its own line, and we do a separate call to print the spaces before the symbol. Fix it by doing the printk() directly instead of using the print_ip_sym() helper. Additionally, the symbol address isn't very helpful, so let's get rid of that, too. The final result looks like this: [ 5.194518] -> #1 (B){+.+...}: [ 5.195002] lock_acquire+0xc3/0x210 [ 5.195439] mutex_lock_nested+0x74/0x6d0 [ 5.196491] do_one_initcall+0x52/0x1b0 [ 5.196939] do_init_module+0x5f/0x209 [ 5.197355] load_module+0x218d/0x2b80 [ 5.197792] SyS_finit_module+0xeb/0x120 [ 5.198251] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xc2 Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: kernel-team@xxxxxx Fixes: 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/43b4e114724b2bdb0308fa86cb33aa07d3d67fad.1486510315.git.osandov@xxxxxx Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/stacktrace.c | 12 ++++-------- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) --- a/kernel/stacktrace.c +++ b/kernel/stacktrace.c @@ -18,10 +18,8 @@ void print_stack_trace(struct stack_trac if (WARN_ON(!trace->entries)) return; - for (i = 0; i < trace->nr_entries; i++) { - printk("%*c", 1 + spaces, ' '); - print_ip_sym(trace->entries[i]); - } + for (i = 0; i < trace->nr_entries; i++) + printk("%*c%pS\n", 1 + spaces, ' ', (void *)trace->entries[i]); } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(print_stack_trace); @@ -29,7 +27,6 @@ int snprint_stack_trace(char *buf, size_ struct stack_trace *trace, int spaces) { int i; - unsigned long ip; int generated; int total = 0; @@ -37,9 +34,8 @@ int snprint_stack_trace(char *buf, size_ return 0; for (i = 0; i < trace->nr_entries; i++) { - ip = trace->entries[i]; - generated = snprintf(buf, size, "%*c[<%p>] %pS\n", - 1 + spaces, ' ', (void *) ip, (void *) ip); + generated = snprintf(buf, size, "%*c%pS\n", 1 + spaces, ' ', + (void *)trace->entries[i]); total += generated; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
