From e1a261ba599eec97e1c5c7760d5c3698fc24e6a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jocelyn Falempe Date: Tue, 2 Jul 2024 14:26:04 +0200 Subject: printk: Add a short description string to kmsg_dump() kmsg_dump doesn't forward the panic reason string to the kmsg_dumper callback. This patch adds a new struct kmsg_dump_detail, that will hold the reason and description, and pass it to the dump() callback. To avoid updating all kmsg_dump() call, it adds a kmsg_dump_desc() function and a macro for backward compatibility. I've written this for drm_panic, but it can be useful for other kmsg_dumper. It allows to see the panic reason, like "sysrq triggered crash" or "VFS: Unable to mount root fs on xxxx" on the drm panic screen. v2: * Use a struct kmsg_dump_detail to hold the reason and description pointer, for more flexibility if we want to add other parameters. (Kees Cook) * Fix powerpc/nvram_64 build, as I didn't update the forward declaration of oops_to_nvram() Signed-off-by: Jocelyn Falempe Acked-by: Petr Mladek Acked-by: Michael Ellerman (powerpc) Acked-by: Kees Cook Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20240702122639.248110-1-jfalempe@redhat.com --- arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c') diff --git a/arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c b/arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c index 4382cf02a6d1..419021175272 100644 --- a/arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c +++ b/arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c @@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ #include static void kmsg_dumper_stdout(struct kmsg_dumper *dumper, - enum kmsg_dump_reason reason) + struct kmsg_dump_detail *detail) { static struct kmsg_dump_iter iter; static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(lock); -- cgit v1.2.3
