[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.15 058/189] powerpc/pseries, ps3: panic flush kernel messages before halting system

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 35adacd6fc48d658419522f192a3c8b2785612da ]

Platforms with a panic handler that halts the system can have problems
getting kernel messages out, because the panic notifiers are called
before kernel/panic.c does its flushing of printk buffers an console
etc.

This was attempted to be solved with commit a3b2cb30f252 ("powerpc: Do
not call ppc_md.panic in fadump panic notifier"), but that wasn't the
right approach and caused other problems, and was reverted by commit
ab9dbf771ff9.

Instead, the powernv shutdown paths have already had a similar
problem, fixed by taking the message flushing sequence from
kernel/panic.c. That's a little bit ugly, but while we have the code
duplicated, it will work for this case as well. So have ppc panic
handlers do the same flushing before they terminate.

Without this patch, a qemu pseries_le_defconfig guest stops silently
when issued the nmi command when xmon is off and no crash dumpers
enabled. Afterwards, an oops is printed by each CPU as expected.

Fixes: ab9dbf771ff9 ("Revert "powerpc: Do not call ppc_md.panic in fadump panic notifier"")
