Linus Torvalds b7ad7ef742 remove task and stack pointer printout from oops dump
Geert Uytterhoeven reported a NFS oops, and pointed out that some of the
numbers were hashed and useless.

We could just turn them from '%p' into '%px', but those numbers are
really just legacy, and useless even when not hashed.

So just remove them entirely.

Kees Cook c71b02e4d2 Revert "pstore: Honor dmesg_restrict sysctl on dmesg dumps"
This reverts commit 68c4a4f8ab, with
various conflict clean-ups.

The capability check required too much privilege compared to simple DAC
controls. A system builder was forced to have crash handler processes
run with CAP_SYSLOG which would give it the ability to read (and wipe)
the _current_ dmesg, which is much more access than being given access
only to the historical log stored in pstorefs.

With the prior commit to make the root directory 0750, the files are
protected by default but a system builder can now opt to give access
to a specific group (via chgrp on the pstorefs root directory) without
being forced to also give away CAP_SYSLOG.

Nikitas Angelinas 077a1cc06f printk: Clean up do_syslog() error handling
The error variable in do_syslog() is preemptively set to the error code
before the error condition is checked, and then set to 0 if the error
condition is not encountered. This is not necessary, as it is likely
simpler to return immediately upon encountering the error condition. A
redundant set of the error variable to 0 is also removed.

This patch has been build-tested on x86_64, but not tested for
functionality.

Petr Mladek 5a814231ae printk/console: Enhance the check for consoles using init memory
printk_late_init() is responsible for disabling boot consoles that
use init memory. It checks the address of struct console for this.

But this is not enough. For example, there are several early
consoles that have write() method in the init section and
struct console in the normal section. They are not disabled
and could cause fancy and hard to debug system states.

It is even more complicated by the macros EARLYCON_DECLARE() and
OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE() where various struct members are set at
runtime by the provided setup() function.

I have tried to reproduce this problem and forced the classic uart
early console to stay using keep_bootcon parameter. In particular
I used earlycon=uart,io,0x3f8 keep_bootcon console=ttyS0,115200.
The system did not boot:

[    1.570496] PM: Image not found (code -22)
[    1.570496] PM: Image not found (code -22)
[    1.571886] PM: Hibernation image not present or could not be loaded.
[    1.571886] PM: Hibernation image not present or could not be loaded.
[    1.576407] Freeing unused kernel memory: 2528K
[    1.577244] kernel tried to execute NX-protected page - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)

The double lines are caused by having both early uart console and
ttyS0 console enabled at the same time. The early console stopped
working when the init memory was freed. Fortunately, the invalid
call was caught by the NX-protexted page check and did not cause
any silent fancy problems.

This patch adds a check for many other addresses stored in
struct console. It omits setup() and match() that are used
only when the console is registered. Therefore they have
already been used at this point and there is no reason
to use them again.

Matt Redfearn 2b1be689f3 printk/console: Always disable boot consoles that use init memory before it is freed
Commit 4c30c6f566 ("kernel/printk: do not turn off bootconsole in
printk_late_init() if keep_bootcon") added a check on keep_bootcon to
ensure that boot consoles were kept around until the real console is
registered.

This can lead to problems if the boot console data and code are in the
init section, since it can be freed before the boot console is
unregistered.

Commit 81cc26f2bd ("printk: only unregister boot consoles when
necessary") fixed this a better way. It allowed to keep boot consoles
that did not use init data. Unfortunately it did not remove the check
of keep_bootcon.

This can lead to crashes and weird panics when the bootconsole is
accessed after free, especially if page poisoning is in use and the
code / data have been overwritten with a poison value.

To prevent this, always free the boot console if it is within the init
section. In addition, print a warning about that the console is removed
prematurely.

Finally there is a new comment how to avoid the warning. It replaced
an explanation that duplicated a more comprehensive function
description few lines above.

Petr Mladek dac8bbbae1 Revert "printk: fix double printing with earlycon"
This reverts commit cf39bf58af.

The commit regression to users that define both console=ttyS1
and console=ttyS0 on the command line, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170509082915.GA13236@bistromath.localdomain

The kernel log messages always appeared only on one serial port. It is
even documented in Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst:

"Note that you can only define one console per device type (serial,
video)."

The above mentioned commit changed the order in which the command line
parameters are searched. As a result, the kernel log messages go to
the last mentioned ttyS* instead of the first one.

We long thought that using two console=ttyS* on the command line
did not make sense. But then we realized that console= parameters
were handled also by systemd, see
http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/serial-console.html

"By default systemd will instantiate one serial-getty@.service on
the main kernel console, if it is not a virtual terminal."

where

"[4] If multiple kernel consoles are used simultaneously, the main
console is the one listed first in /sys/class/tty/console/active,
which is the last one listed on the kernel command line."

This puts the original report into another light. The system is running
in qemu. The first serial port is used to store the messages into a file.
The second one is used to login to the system via a socket. It depends
on systemd and the historic kernel behavior.

By other words, systemd causes that it makes sense to define both
console=ttyS1 console=ttyS0 on the command line. The kernel fix
caused regression related to userspace (systemd) and need to be
reverted.

In addition, it went out that the fix helped only partially.
The messages still were duplicated when the boot console was
removed early by late_initcall(printk_late_init). Then the entire
log was replayed when the same console was registered as a normal one.

Petr Mladek 719f6a7040 printk: Use the main logbuf in NMI when logbuf_lock is available
The commit 42a0bb3f71 ("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 a9edc88093 ("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.

Hari Bathini 692f66f26a crash: move crashkernel parsing and vmcore related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE
Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and
reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4.

Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash.  Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism.  Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.

This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel
parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec
support.  Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of
fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump.

The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo
related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE.  The
second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note()
functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code.  The third patch
removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump)
in powerpc.  The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving
memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter.  This
has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports,
for fadump as well.  The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation
about use of crashkernel parameter.

This patch (of 5):

Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash.  Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism.  Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.

But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel
parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE.  This patch introduces
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config,
allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC.  There is no
functional change with this patch.

Aleksey Makarov cf39bf58af printk: fix double printing with earlycon
If a console was specified by ACPI SPCR table _and_ command line
parameters like "console=ttyAMA0" _and_ "earlycon" were specified,
then log messages appear twice.

The root cause is that the code traverses the list of specified
consoles (the `console_cmdline` array) and stops at the first match.
But it may happen that the same console is referred by the elements
of this array twice:

	pl011,mmio,0x87e024000000,115200 -- from SPCR
	ttyAMA0 -- from command line

but in this case `preferred_console` points to the second entry and
the flag CON_CONSDEV is not set, so bootconsole is not deregistered.

To fix that, introduce an invariant "The last non-braille console
is always the preferred one" on the entries of the console_cmdline
array.  Then traverse it in reverse order to be sure that if
the console is preferred then it will be the first matching entry.
Introduce variable console_cmdline_cnt that keeps the number
of elements of the console_cmdline array (Petr Mladek).  It helps
to get rid of the loop that searches for the end of this array.

Aleksey Makarov ad86ee2b8a printk: rename selected_console -> preferred_console
The variable selected_console is set in __add_preferred_console()
to point to the last console parameter that was added to the
console_cmdline array.

Rename it to preferred_console so that the name reflects the usage.

Petr Mladek:
"[..] the selected_console/preferred_console
value is used to keep the console first in the console_drivers list.
IMHO, the main effect is that each line will first appear on this
console, see call_console_drivers(). But the message will still
appear also on all other enabled consoles. From this point,
the name "preferred" sounds better to me. More consoles
are selected (enabled) and only one is preferred (first)."

The variable preferred_console is used only inside register_console()
and its semantics is boolean.  It is negative when no console has been
made preferred.

Make it static bool and rename to has_preferred.

Petr Mladek 257ab44311 printk: Correctly handle preemption in console_unlock()
Some console drivers code calls console_conditional_schedule()
that looks at @console_may_schedule. The value must be cleared
when the drivers are called from console_unlock() with
interrupts disabled. But rescheduling is fine when the same
code is called, for example, from tty operations where the
console semaphore is taken via console_lock().

This is why @console_may_schedule is cleared before calling console
drivers. The original value is stored to decide if we could sleep
between lines.

Now, @console_may_schedule is not cleared when we call
console_trylock() and jump back to the "again" goto label.
This has become a problem, since the commit 6b97a20d3a
("printk: set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers").
@console_may_schedule might get enabled now.

There is also the opposite problem. console_lock() can be called
only from preemptive context. It can always enable scheduling in
the console code. But console_trylock() is not able to detect it
when CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is disabled. Therefore we should use the
original @console_may_schedule value after re-acquiring
the console semaphore in console_unlock().

This patch solves both problems by moving the "again" goto label.

Alternative solution was to clear and restore the value around
call_console_drivers(). Then console_conditional_schedule() could
be used also inside console_unlock(). But there was a potential race
with console_flush_on_panic() as reported by Sergey Senozhatsky.
That function should be called only where there is only one CPU
and with interrupts disabled. But better be on the safe side
because stopping CPUs might fail.

Fixes: 6b97a20d3a ("printk: set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers")

Sergey Senozhatsky 64ca752dcb printk: use console_trylock() in console_cpu_notify()
There is no need to always call blocking console_lock() in
console_cpu_notify(), it's quite possible that console_sem can
be locked by other CPU on the system, either already printing
or soon to begin printing the messages. console_lock() in this
case can simply block CPU hotplug for unknown period of time
(console_unlock() is time unbound). Not that hotplug is very
fast, but still, with other CPUs being online and doing
printk() console_cpu_notify() can stuck.

Use console_trylock() instead and opt-out if console_sem is
already acquired from another CPU, since that CPU will do
the printing for us.

Linus Torvalds 7d91de7443 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Add Petr Mladek, Sergey Senozhatsky as printk maintainers, and Steven
   Rostedt as the printk reviewer. This idea came up after the
   discussion about printk issues at Kernel Summit. It was formulated
   and discussed at lkml[1].

 - Extend a lock-less NMI per-cpu buffers idea to handle recursive
   printk() calls by Sergey Senozhatsky[2]. It is the first step in
   sanitizing printk as discussed at Kernel Summit.

   The change allows to see messages that would normally get ignored or
   would cause a deadlock.

   Also it allows to enable lockdep in printk(). This already paid off.
   The testing in linux-next helped to discover two old problems that
   were hidden before[3][4].

 - Remove unused parameter by Sergey Senozhatsky. Clean up after a past
   change.

lockdep to be enabled "current->lockdep_recursion == 0".

This patch converts the rest of logbuf users (which are
out of printk recursion case, but can deadlock in printk).
To make printk-safe usage easier the patch introduces 4
helper macros:
- logbuf_lock_irq()/logbuf_unlock_irq()
  lock/unlock the logbuf lock and disable/enable local IRQ

- logbuf_lock_irqsave(flags)/logbuf_unlock_irqrestore(flags)
  lock/unlock the logbuf lock and saves/restores local IRQ state

Sergey Senozhatsky 8b1742c9c2 printk: remove zap_locks() function
We use printk-safe now which makes printk-recursion detection code
in vprintk_emit() unreachable. The tricky thing here is that, apart
from detecting and reporting printk recursions, that code also used
to zap_locks() in case of panic() from the same CPU. However,
zap_locks() does not look to be needed anymore:

1) Since commit 08d78658f3 ("panic: release stale console lock to
   always get the logbuf printed out") panic flushing of `logbuf' to
   console ignores the state of `console_sem' by doing
   	panic()
		console_trylock();
		console_unlock();

2) Since commit cf9b1106c8 ("printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the
   system panic") panic attempts to zap the `logbuf_lock' spin_lock to
   successfully flush nmi messages to `logbuf'.

Basically, it seems that we either already do what zap_locks() used to
do but in other places or we ignore the state of the lock. The only
reaming difference is that we don't re-init the console semaphore in
printk_safe_flush_on_panic(), but this is not necessary because we
don't call console drivers from printk_safe_flush_on_panic() due to
the fact that we are using a deferred printk() version (as was
suggested by Petr Mladek).

Sergey Senozhatsky f975237b76 printk: use printk_safe buffers in printk
Use printk_safe per-CPU buffers in printk recursion-prone blocks:
-- around logbuf_lock protected sections in vprintk_emit() and
   console_unlock()
-- around down_trylock_console_sem() and up_console_sem()

Note that this solution addresses deadlocks caused by printk()
recursive calls only. That is vprintk_emit() and console_unlock().
The rest will be converted in a followup patch.

Another thing to note is that we now keep lockdep enabled in printk,
because we are protected against the printk recursion caused by
lockdep in vprintk_emit() by the printk-safe mechanism - we first
switch to per-CPU buffers and only then access the deadlock-prone
locks.

Examples:

1) printk() from logbuf_lock spin_lock section

Assume the following code:
  printk()
    raw_spin_lock(&logbuf_lock);
    WARN_ON(1);
    raw_spin_unlock(&logbuf_lock);

    console_trylock()

Account lost messages in pritk-safe and printk-safe-nmi

The patch also moves lost message counter to struct
`printk_safe_seq_buf' instead of having dedicated static

Sergey Senozhatsky 099f1c84c0 printk: introduce per-cpu safe_print seq buffer
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.

Linus Torvalds 5c2992ee7f printk: remove console flushing special cases for partial buffered lines
It actively hurts proper merging, and makes for a lot of special cases.
There was a good(ish) reason for doing it originally, but it's getting
too painful to maintain.  And most of the original reasons for it are
long gone.

So instead of having special code to flush partial lines to the console
(as opposed to the record buffers), do _all_ the console writing from
the record buffer, and be done with it.

If an oops happens (or some other synchronous event), we will flush the
partial lines due to the oops printing activity, so this does not affect
that.  It does mean that if you have a completely hung machine, a
partial preceding line may not have been printed out.

That was some of the original reason for this complexity, in fact, back
when we used to test for the historical i386 "halt" instruction problem
by doing

	pr_info("Checking 'hlt' instruction... ");

	if (!boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) {
		pr_cont("disabled\n");
		return;
	}
	halt();
	halt();
	halt();
	halt();
	pr_cont("OK\n");

and that model no longer works (it the 'hlt' instruction kills the
machine, the partial line won't have been flushed, so you won't even see
it).

Of course, that was also back in the days when people actually had
textual console output rather than a graphical splash-screen at bootup.
How times change..

Linus Torvalds 5aa068ea40 printk: remove games with previous record flags
The record logging code looks at the previous record flags in various
ways, and they are all wrong.

You can't use the previous record flags to determine anything about the
next record, because they may simply not be related.  In particular, the
reason the previous record was a continuation record may well be exactly
_because_ the new record was printed by a different process, which is
why the previous record was flushed.

So all those games are simply wrong, and make the code hard to
understand (because the code fundamentally cdoes not make sense).

So remove it.

Petr Mladek 34aaff40b4 kdb: call vkdb_printf() from vprintk_default() only when wanted
kdb_trap_printk allows to pass normal printk() messages to kdb via
vkdb_printk().  For example, it is used to get backtrace using the
classic show_stack(), see kdb_show_stack().

vkdb_printf() tries to avoid a potential infinite loop by disabling the
trap.  But this approach is racy, for example:

CPU1					CPU2

vkdb_printf()
  // assume that kdb_trap_printk == 0
  saved_trap_printk = kdb_trap_printk;
  kdb_trap_printk = 0;

					kdb_show_stack()
					  kdb_trap_printk++;

Problem1: Now, a nested printk() on CPU0 calls vkdb_printf()
	  even when it should have been disabled. It will not
	  cause a deadlock but...

   // using the outdated saved value: 0
   kdb_trap_printk = saved_trap_printk;

					  kdb_trap_printk--;

Problem2: Now, kdb_trap_printk == -1 and will stay like this.
   It means that all messages will get passed to kdb from
   now on.

This patch removes the racy saved_trap_printk handling.  Instead, the
recursion is prevented by a check for the locked CPU.

The solution is still kind of racy.  A non-related printk(), from
another process, might get trapped by vkdb_printf().  And the wanted
printk() might not get trapped because kdb_printf_cpu is assigned.  But
this problem existed even with the original code.

A proper solution would be to get_cpu() before setting kdb_trap_printk
and trap messages only from this CPU.  I am not sure if it is worth the
effort, though.

In fact, the race is very theoretical.  When kdb is running any of the
commands that use kdb_trap_printk there is a single active CPU and the
other CPUs should be in a holding pen inside kgdb_cpu_enter().

The only time this is violated is when there is a timeout waiting for
the other CPUs to report to the holding pen.

Finally, note that the situation is a bit schizophrenic.  vkdb_printf()
explicitly allows recursion but only from KDB code that calls
kdb_printf() directly.  On the other hand, the generic printk()
recursion is not allowed because it might cause an infinite loop.  This
is why we could not hide the decision inside vkdb_printf() easily.

It turns out that this flushes things much too aggressiverly, and causes

There's a pending patch to make printk() flushing much more
straightforward, but it's too invasive for 4.9, so in the meantime let's
just not make the system message logging flush continuation lines.
They'll be flushed by the final newline anyway.

This reverts commit 05fd007e46 ("console: don't prefer first
registered if DT specifies stdout-path").

The reverted commit changes existing behavior on which many ARM boards
rely.  Many ARM small-board-computers, like e.g.  the Raspberry Pi have
both a video output and a serial console.  Depending on whether the user
is using the device as a more regular computer; or as a headless device
we need to have the console on either one or the other.

Many users rely on the kernel behavior of the console being present on
both outputs, before the reverted commit the console setup with no
console= kernel arguments on an ARM board which sets stdout-path in dt
would look like this:

  [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/consoles
  ttyS0                -W- (EC p a)    4:64
  tty0                 -WU (E  p  )    4:1

Where as after the reverted commit, it looks like this:

  [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/consoles
  ttyS0                -W- (EC p a)    4:64

This commit reverts commit 05fd007e46 ("console: don't prefer first
registered if DT specifies stdout-path") restoring the original
behavior.

Linus Torvalds 8835ca59da printk: suppress empty continuation lines
We have a fairly common pattern where you print several things as
continuations on one single line in a loop, and then at the end you do

	printk(KERN_CONT "\n");

to flush the buffered output.

But if the output was flushed by something else (concurrent printk
activity, or just system logging), we don't want that final flushing to
just print an empty line.

So just suppress empty continuation lines when they couldn't be merged
into the line they are a continuation of.

Linus Torvalds 563873318d Merge branch 'printk-cleanups'
Merge my system logging cleanups, triggered by the broken '\n' patches.

The line continuation handling has been broken basically forever, and
the code to handle the system log records was both confusing and
dubious.  And it would do entirely the wrong thing unless you always had
a terminating newline, partly because it couldn't actually see whether a
message was marked KERN_CONT or not (but partly because the LOG_CONT
handling in the recording code was rather confusing too).

This re-introduces a real semantically meaningful KERN_CONT, and fixes
the few places I noticed where it was missing.  There are probably more
missing cases, since KERN_CONT hasn't actually had any semantic meaning
for at least four years (other than the checkpatch meaning of "no log
level necessary, this is a continuation line").

This also allows the combination of KERN_CONT and a log level.  In that
case the log level will be ignored if the merging with a previous line
is successful, but if a new record is needed, that new record will now
get the right log level.

That also means that you can at least in theory combine KERN_CONT with
the "pr_info()" style helpers, although any use of pr_fmt() prefixing
would make that just result in a mess, of course (the prefix would end
up in the middle of a continuing line).

* printk-cleanups:
  printk: make reading the kernel log flush pending lines
  printk: re-organize log_output() to be more legible
  printk: split out core logging code into helper function
  printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines
