mm, printk: introduce new format string for flags In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not usable for e.g. sysfs export. To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp), gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified. It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the %p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a non-critical path is negligible.

vsprintf: Prevent crash when dereferencing invalid pointers We already prevent crash when dereferencing some obviously broken pointers. But the handling is not consistent. Sometimes we print "(null)" only for pure NULL pointer, sometimes for pointers in the first page and sometimes also for pointers in the last page (error codes). Note that printk() call this code under logbuf_lock. Any recursive printks are redirected to the printk_safe implementation and the messages are stored into per-CPU buffers. These buffers might be eventually flushed in printk_safe_flush_on_panic() but it is not guaranteed. This patch adds a check using probe_kernel_read(). It is not a full-proof test. But it should help to see the error message in 99% situations where the kernel would silently crash otherwise. Also it makes the error handling unified for "%s" and the many %p* specifiers that need to read the data from a given address. We print: + (null) when accessing data on pure pure NULL address + (efault) when accessing data on an invalid address It does not affect the %p* specifiers that just print the given address in some form, namely %pF, %pf, %pS, %ps, %pB, %pK, %px, and plain %p. Note that we print (efault) from security reasons. In fact, the real address can be seen only by %px or eventually %pK.

printf: add support for printing symbolic error names It has been suggested several times to extend vsnprintf() to be able to convert the numeric value of ENOSPC to print "ENOSPC". This implements that as a %p extension: With %pe, one can do if (IS_ERR(foo)) { pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %pe\n", foo); return PTR_ERR(foo); } instead of what is seen in quite a few places in the kernel: if (IS_ERR(foo)) { pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(foo)); return PTR_ERR(foo); } If the value passed to %pe is an ERR_PTR, but the library function errname() added here doesn't know about the value, the value is simply printed in decimal. If the value passed to %pe is not an ERR_PTR, we treat it as an ordinary %p and thus print the hashed value (passing non-ERR_PTR values to %pe indicates a bug in the caller, but we can't do much about that). With my embedded hat on, and because it's not very invasive to do, I've made it possible to remove this. The errname() function and associated lookup tables take up about 3K. For most, that's probably quite acceptable and a price worth paying for more readable dmesg (once this starts getting used), while for those that disable printk() it's of very little use - I don't see a procfs/sysfs/seq_printf() file reasonably making use of this - and they clearly want to squeeze vmlinux as much as possible. Hence the default y if PRINTK. The symbols to include have been found by massaging the output of find arch include -iname 'errno*.h' | xargs grep -E 'define\s*E' In the cases where some common aliasing exists (e.g. EAGAIN=EWOULDBLOCK on all platforms, EDEADLOCK=EDEADLK on most), I've moved the more popular one (in terms of 'git grep -w Efoo | wc) to the bottom so that one takes precedence.
