printk: Fail pr_flush() if before SYSTEM_SCHEDULING
A follow-up change adds pr_flush() to console unregistration. However, with boot consoles unregistration can happen very early if there are also regular consoles registering as well. In this case the pr_flush() is not important because all consoles are flushed when checking the initial console sequence number. Allow pr_flush() to fail if @system_state has not yet reached SYSTEM_SCHEDULING. This avoids might_sleep() and msleep() explosions that would otherwise occur: [ 0.436739][ T0] printk: legacy console [ttyS0] enabled [ 0.439820][ T0] printk: legacy bootconsole [earlyser0] disabled [ 0.446822][ T0] BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0/0x00000002 [ 0.450491][ T0] 1 lock held by swapper/0/0: [ 0.457897][ T0] #0: ffffffff82ae5f88 (console_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: console_list_lock+0x20/0x70 [ 0.463141][ T0] Modules linked in: [ 0.465307][ T0] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.10.0-rc1+ #372 [ 0.469394][ T0] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014 [ 0.474402][ T0] Call Trace: [ 0.476246][ T0] <TASK> [ 0.481473][ T0] dump_stack_lvl+0x93/0xb0 [ 0.483949][ T0] dump_stack+0x10/0x20 [ 0.486256][ T0] __schedule_bug+0x68/0x90 [ 0.488753][ T0] __schedule+0xb9b/0xd80 [ 0.491179][ T0] ? lock_release+0xb5/0x270 [ 0.493732][ T0] schedule+0x43/0x170 [ 0.495998][ T0] schedule_timeout+0xc5/0x1e0 [ 0.498634][ T0] ? __pfx_process_timeout+0x10/0x10 [ 0.501522][ T0] ? msleep+0x13/0x50 [ 0.503728][ T0] msleep+0x3c/0x50 [ 0.505847][ T0] __pr_flush.constprop.0.isra.0+0x56/0x500 [ 0.509050][ T0] ? _printk+0x58/0x80 [ 0.511332][ T0] ? lock_is_held_type+0x9c/0x110 [ 0.514106][ T0] unregister_console_locked+0xe1/0x450 [ 0.517144][ T0] register_console+0x509/0x620 [ 0.519827][ T0] ? __pfx_univ8250_console_init+0x10/0x10 [ 0.523042][ T0] univ8250_console_init+0x24/0x40 [ 0.525845][ T0] console_init+0x43/0x210 [ 0.528280][ T0] start_kernel+0x493/0x980 [ 0.530773][ T0] x86_64_start_reservations+0x18/0x30 [ 0.533755][ T0] x86_64_start_kernel+0xae/0xc0 [ 0.536473][ T0] common_startup_64+0x12c/0x138 [ 0.539210][ T0] </TASK> And then the kernel goes into an infinite loop complaining about: 1. releasing a pinned lock 2. unpinning an unpinned lock 3. bad: scheduling from the idle thread! 4. goto 1 Signed-off-by: John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240904120536.115780-3-john.ogness@linutronix.de Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>
