printk: console_flush_all: use srcu console list iterator
Guarantee safe iteration of the console list by using SRCU. Note that in the case of a handover, the SRCU read lock is also released. This is documented in the function description and as comments in the code. It is a bit tricky, but this preserves the lockdep lock ordering for the context handing over the console_lock: console_lock() | mutex_acquire(&console_lock_dep_map) <-- console lock | console_unlock() | console_flush_all() | | srcu_read_lock(&console_srcu) <-- srcu lock | | console_emit_next_record() | | | console_lock_spinning_disable_and_check() | | | | srcu_read_unlock(&console_srcu) <-- srcu unlock | | | | mutex_release(&console_lock_dep_map) <-- console unlock Signed-off-by: John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221116162152.193147-16-john.ogness@linutronix.de
