After a bit of debugging, I found what was happening. This would trigger
when performing "perf" with a high NMI interrupt rate, while enabling and
disabling function tracer. Ftrace uses breakpoints to convert the nops at
the start of functions to calls to the function trampolines. The breakpoint
traps disable interrupts and this makes calls into lockdep via the
trace_hardirqs_off_thunk in the entry.S code. What happens is the following:
do_idle {
[interrupts enabled]
<interrupt> [interrupts disabled]
TRACE_IRQS_OFF [lockdep says irqs off]
[...]
TRACE_IRQS_IRET
test if pt_regs say return to interrupts enabled [yes]
TRACE_IRQS_ON [lockdep says irqs are on]
<nmi>
nmi_enter() {
printk_nmi_enter() [traced by ftrace]
[ hit ftrace breakpoint ]
<breakpoint exception>
TRACE_IRQS_OFF [lockdep says irqs off]
[...]
TRACE_IRQS_IRET [return from breakpoint]
test if pt_regs say interrupts enabled [no]
[iret back to interrupt]
[iret back to code]
tick_nohz_idle_enter() {
lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled() [lockdep say no!]
Although interrupts are indeed enabled, lockdep thinks it is not, and since
we now do asserts via lockdep, it gives a false warning. The issue here is
that printk_nmi_enter() is called before lockdep_off(), which disables
lockdep (for this reason) in NMIs. By simply not allowing ftrace to see
printk_nmi_enter() (via notrace annotation) we keep lockdep from getting
confused.

The commit 719f6a7040f1bdaf96 ("printk: Use the main logbuf in NMI
when logbuf_lock is available") brought back the possible deadlocks
in printk() and NMI.
The check of logbuf_lock is done only in printk_nmi_enter() to prevent
mixed output. But another CPU might take the lock later, enter NMI, and:
+ Both NMIs might be serialized by yet another lock, for example,
the one in nmi_cpu_backtrace().
+ The other CPU might get stopped in NMI, see smp_send_stop()
in panic().
The only safe solution is to use trylock when storing the message
into the main log-buffer. It might cause reordering when some lines
go to the main lock buffer directly and others are delayed via
the per-CPU buffer. It means that it is not useful in general.
This patch replaces the problematic NMI deferred context with NMI
direct context. It can be used to mark a code that might produce
many messages in NMI and the risk of losing them is more critical
than problems with eventual reordering.
The context is then used when dumping trace buffers on oops. It was
the primary motivation for the original fix. Also the reordering is
even smaller issue there because some traces have their own time stamps.
Finally, nmi_cpu_backtrace() need not longer be serialized because
it will always us the per-CPU buffers again.

Drop the in_nmi() check from printk_safe_flush_on_panic()
and attempt to re-init (IOW unlock) locked logbuf spinlock
from panic CPU regardless of its context.
Otherwise, theoretically, we can deadlock on logbuf trying to flush
per-CPU buffers:
a) Panic CPU is running in non-NMI context
b) Panic CPU sends out shutdown IPI via reboot vector
c) Panic CPU fails to stop all remote CPUs
d) Panic CPU sends out shutdown IPI via NMI vector
One of the CPUs that we bring down via NMI vector can hold
logbuf spin lock (theoretically).

I noticed that there is a possibility that printk_safe_log_store() causes
kernel oops because "args" parameter is passed to vsnprintf() again when
atomic_cmpxchg() detected that we raced. Fix this by using va_copy().

The variable printk_safe_irq_ready is set and never cleared at system
boot up, when there's only one CPU active. It is set before other
CPUs come on line. Also, it is extremely unlikely that an NMI would
trigger this early in boot up (which I wonder why we even have this
variable at all).
Also mark the printk_safe_irq_ready as read mostly, as it is set at
system boot up, and never touched again.

The commit 42a0bb3f71383b457a7d ("printk/nmi: generic solution for safe
printk in NMI") caused that printk stores messages into a temporary
buffer in NMI context.
The buffer is per-CPU and therefore the size is rather limited.
It works quite well for NMI backtraces. But there are longer logs
that might get printed in NMI context, for example, lockdep
warnings, ftrace_dump_on_oops.
The temporary buffer is used to avoid deadlocks caused by
logbuf_lock. Also it is needed to avoid races with the other
temporary buffer that is used when PRINTK_SAFE_CONTEXT is entered.
But the main buffer can be used in NMI if the lock is available
and we did not interrupt PRINTK_SAFE_CONTEXT.
The lock is checked using raw_spin_is_locked(). It might cause
false negatives when the lock is taken on another CPU and
this CPU is in the safe context from other reasons. Note that
the safe context is used also to get console semaphore or when
calling console drivers. For this reason, we do the check in
printk_nmi_enter(). It makes the handling consistent for
the entire NMI handler and avoids reshuffling of the messages.
The patch also defines special printk context that allows
to use printk_deferred() in NMI. Note that we could not flush
the messages to the consoles because console drivers might use
many other internal locks.
The newly created vprintk_deferred() disables the preemption
only around the irq work handling. It is needed there to keep
the consistency between the two per-CPU variables. But there
is no reason to disable preemption around vprintk_emit().
Finally, the patch puts back explicit serialization of the NMI
backtraces from different CPUs. It was removed by the
commit a9edc88093287183ac934b ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe
NMI stack trace on all CPUs"). It was not needed because
the flushing of the temporary per-CPU buffers was serialized.

Account lost messages in pritk-safe and printk-safe-nmi
contexts and report those numbers during printk_safe_flush().
The patch also moves lost message counter to struct
`printk_safe_seq_buf' instead of having dedicated static
counters - this simplifies the code.

Always use printk_deferred() in printk_safe_flush_line().
Flushing can be done from NMI or printk_safe contexts (when
we are in panic), so we can't call console drivers, yet still
want to store the messages in the logbuf buffer. Therefore we
use a deferred printk version.

This patch extends the idea of NMI per-cpu buffers to regions
that may cause recursive printk() calls and possible deadlocks.
Namely, printk() can't handle printk calls from schedule code
or printk() calls from lock debugging code (spin_dump() for instance);
because those may be called with `sem->lock' already taken or any
other `critical' locks (p->pi_lock, etc.). An example of deadlock
can be
vprintk_emit()
console_unlock()
up() << raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags);
wake_up_process()
try_to_wake_up()
ttwu_queue()
ttwu_activate()
activate_task()
enqueue_task()
enqueue_task_fair()
cfs_rq_of()
task_of()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!entity_is_task(se))
vprintk_emit()
console_trylock()
down_trylock()
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags)
^^^^ deadlock
and some other cases.
Just like in NMI implementation, the solution uses a per-cpu
`printk_func' pointer to 'redirect' printk() calls to a 'safe'
callback, that store messages in a per-cpu buffer and flushes
them back to logbuf buffer later.
Usage example:
printk()
printk_safe_enter_irqsave(flags)
//
// any printk() call from here will endup in vprintk_safe(),
// that stores messages in a special per-CPU buffer.
//
printk_safe_exit_irqrestore(flags)
The 'redirection' mechanism, though, has been reworked, as suggested
by Petr Mladek. Instead of using a per-cpu @print_func callback we now
keep a per-cpu printk-context variable and call either default or nmi
vprintk function depending on its value. printk_nmi_entrer/exit and
printk_safe_enter/exit, thus, just set/celar corresponding bits in
printk-context functions.
The patch only adds printk_safe support, we don't use it yet.

A preparation patch for printk_safe work. No functional change.
- rename nmi.c to print_safe.c
- add `printk_safe' prefix to some (which used both by printk-safe
and printk-nmi) of the exported functions.
