2025-07-19panic: add 'panic_sys_info' sysctl to take human readable string parameterFeng Tang
Bitmap definition for 'panic_print' is hard to remember and decode. Add 'panic_sys_info='sysctl to take human readable string like "tasks,mem,timers,locks,ftrace,..." and translate it into bitmap. The detailed mapping is: SYS_INFO_TASKS "tasks" SYS_INFO_MEM "mem" SYS_INFO_TIMERS "timers" SYS_INFO_LOCKS "locks" SYS_INFO_FTRACE "ftrace" SYS_INFO_ALL_CPU_BT "all_bt" SYS_INFO_BLOCKED_TASKS "blocked_tasks" [nathan@kernel.org: add __maybe_unused to sys_info_avail] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250708-fix-clang-sys_info_avail-warning-v1-1-60d239eacd64@kernel.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250703021004.42328-4-feng.tang@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Feng Tang <feng.tang@linux.alibaba.com> Suggested-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Cc: John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Lance Yang <lance.yang@linux.dev> Cc: "Paul E .

2025-07-19panic: generalize panic_print's function to show sys infoFeng Tang
'panic_print' was introduced to help debugging kernel panic by dumping different kinds of system information like tasks' call stack, memory, ftrace buffer, etc. Actually this function could also be used to help debugging other cases like task-hung, soft/hard lockup, etc. where user may need the snapshot of system info at that time. Extract system info dump function related code from panic.c to separate file sys_info.[ch], for wider usage by other kernel parts for debugging. Also modify the macro names about singulars/plurals.
