lib/ratelimit.c: use deferred printk() version
printk_ratelimit() invokes ___ratelimit() which may invoke a normal printk() (pr_warn() in this particular case) to warn about suppressed output. Given that printk_ratelimit() may be called from anywhere, that pr_warn() is dangerous - it may end up deadlocking the system. Fix ___ratelimit() by using deferred printk(). Sasha reported the following lockdep error: : Unregister pv shared memory for cpu 8 : select_fallback_rq: 3 callbacks suppressed : process 8583 (trinity-c78) no longer affine to cpu8 : : ====================================================== : WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected : 4.14.0-rc2-next-20170927+ #252 Not tainted : ------------------------------------------------------ : migration/8/62 is trying to acquire lock: : (&port_lock_key){-.-.}, at: serial8250_console_write() : : but task is already holding lock: : (&rq->lock){-.-.}, at: sched_cpu_dying() : : which lock already depends on the new lock. : : : the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: : : -> #3 (&rq->lock){-.-.}: : __lock_acquire() : lock_acquire() : _raw_spin_lock() : task_fork_fair() : sched_fork() : copy_process.part.31() : _do_fork() : kernel_thread() : rest_init() : start_kernel() : x86_64_start_reservations() : x86_64_start_kernel() : verify_cpu() : : -> #2 (&p->pi_lock){-.-.}: : __lock_acquire() : lock_acquire() : _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() : try_to_wake_up() : default_wake_function() : woken_wake_function() : __wake_up_common() : __wake_up_common_lock() : __wake_up() : tty_wakeup() : tty_port_default_wakeup() : tty_port_tty_wakeup() : uart_write_wakeup() : serial8250_tx_chars() : serial8250_handle_irq.part.25() : serial8250_default_handle_irq() : serial8250_interrupt() : __handle_irq_event_percpu() : handle_irq_event_percpu() : handle_irq_event() : handle_level_irq() : handle_irq() : do_IRQ() : ret_from_intr() : native_safe_halt() : default_idle() : arch_cpu_idle() : default_idle_call() : do_idle() : cpu_startup_entry() : rest_init() : start_kernel() : x86_64_start_reservations() : x86_64_start_kernel() : verify_cpu() : : -> #1 (&tty->write_wait){-.-.}: : __lock_acquire() : lock_acquire() : _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() : __wake_up_common_lock() : __wake_up() : tty_wakeup() : tty_port_default_wakeup() : tty_port_tty_wakeup() : uart_write_wakeup() : serial8250_tx_chars() : serial8250_handle_irq.part.25() : serial8250_default_handle_irq() : serial8250_interrupt() : __handle_irq_event_percpu() : handle_irq_event_percpu() : handle_irq_event() : handle_level_irq() : handle_irq() : do_IRQ() : ret_from_intr() : native_safe_halt() : default_idle() : arch_cpu_idle() : default_idle_call() : do_idle() : cpu_startup_entry() : rest_init() : start_kernel() : x86_64_start_reservations() : x86_64_start_kernel() : verify_cpu() : : -> #0 (&port_lock_key){-.-.}: : check_prev_add() : __lock_acquire() : lock_acquire() : _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() : serial8250_console_write() : univ8250_console_write() : console_unlock() : vprintk_emit() : vprintk_default() : vprintk_func() : printk() : ___ratelimit() : __printk_ratelimit() : select_fallback_rq() : sched_cpu_dying() : cpuhp_invoke_callback() : take_cpu_down() : multi_cpu_stop() : cpu_stopper_thread() : smpboot_thread_fn() : kthread() : ret_from_fork() : : other info that might help us debug this: : : Chain exists of: : &port_lock_key --> &p->pi_lock --> &rq->lock : : Possible unsafe locking scenario: : : CPU0 CPU1 : ---- ---- : lock(&rq->lock); : lock(&p->pi_lock); : lock(&rq->lock); : lock(&port_lock_key); : : *** DEADLOCK *** : : 4 locks held by migration/8/62: : #0: (&p->pi_lock){-.-.}, at: sched_cpu_dying() : #1: (&rq->lock){-.-.}, at: sched_cpu_dying() : #2: (printk_ratelimit_state.lock){....}, at: ___ratelimit() : #3: (console_lock){+.+.}, at: vprintk_emit() : : stack backtrace: : CPU: 8 PID: 62 Comm: migration/8 Not tainted 4.14.0-rc2-next-20170927+ #252 : Call Trace: : dump_stack() : print_circular_bug() : check_prev_add() : ?
