CON_PRINTBUFFER console registration requires us to do several preparation steps: - Rollback console_seq to replay logbuf messages which were already seen on other consoles; - Set exclusive_console flag so console_unlock() will ->write() logbuf messages only to the exclusive_console driver. The way we do it, however, is a bit racy logbuf_lock_irqsave(flags); console_seq = syslog_seq; console_idx = syslog_idx; logbuf_unlock_irqrestore(flags); << preemption enabled << irqs enabled exclusive_console = newcon; console_unlock(); We rollback console_seq under logbuf_lock with IRQs disabled, but we set exclusive_console with local IRQs enabled and logbuf unlocked. If the system oops-es or panic-s before we set exclusive_console - and given that we have IRQs and preemption enabled there is such a possibility - we will re-play all logbuf messages to every registered console, which may be a bit annoying and time consuming. Move exclusive_console assignment to the same IRQs-disabled and logbuf_lock-protected section where we rollback console_seq.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
