Aruna Balakrishnaiah 1bf247f8df powerpc/pseries: Remove syslog prefix in uncompressed oops text
Removal of syslog prefix in the uncompressed oops text will
help in capturing more oops data.

Kay Sievers e2ae715d66 kmsg - kmsg_dump() use iterator to receive log buffer content
Provide an iterator to receive the log buffer content, and convert all
kmsg_dump() users to it.

The structured data in the kmsg buffer now contains binary data, which
should no longer be copied verbatim to the kmsg_dump() users.

The iterator should provide reliable access to the buffer data, and also
supports proper log line-aware chunking of data while iterating.

WANG Cong a3dd332305 kexec: remove KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC
KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC is useless because we already save kernel messages inside
/proc/vmcore, and it is unsafe to allow modules to do other stuffs in a
crash dump scenario.

Anton Blanchard 120a52c388 powerpc/nvram: Add spinlock to oops_to_nvram to prevent oops in compression code.
When issuing a system reset we almost always oops in the oops_to_nvram
code because multiple CPUs are using the deflate work area. Add a
spinlock to protect it.

To play it safe I'm using trylock to avoid locking up if the NVRAM
code oopses. This means we might miss multiple CPUs oopsing at exactly
the same time but I think it's best to play it safe for now. Once we
are happy with the reliability we can change it to a full spinlock.

Jim Keniston 6c493685f1 powerpc/nvram: Add compression to fit more oops output into NVRAM
Capture more than twice as much text from the printk buffer, and
compress it to fit it in the lnx,oops-log NVRAM partition.  You
can view the compressed text using the new (as of July 20) --unzip
option of the nvram command in the powerpc-utils package.

For normal halt, reboot, and poweroff events, refrain from overwriting
the lnx,oops-log partition.  Also, don't save the dmesg buffer on an
emergency-restart event if we've already saved it earlier in panic().

Benjamin Herrenschmidt edc79a2f3e powerpc/nvram: Move the log partition stuff to pseries
The nvram log partition stuff currently in nvram_64.c is really
pseries specific. It isn't actually used on anything else (despite
the fact that we ran the code to setup the partition on anything
except powermac) and the log format is specific to pseries RTAS
implementation. So move it where it belongs

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
