+Subject: [PATCH 082/323] printk: limit second loop of syslog_print_all
+Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.204-rt100.tar.xz
+
+The second loop of syslog_print_all() subtracts lengths that were
+added in the first loop. With commit b031a684bfd0 ("printk: remove
+logbuf_lock writer-protection of ringbuffer") it is possible that
+records are (over)written during syslog_print_all(). This allows the
+possibility of the second loop subtracting lengths that were never
+added in the first loop.
+
+This situation can result in syslog_print_all() filling the buffer
+starting from a later record, even though there may have been room
+to fit the earlier record(s) as well.
+
+Fixes: b031a684bfd0 ("printk: remove logbuf_lock writer-protection of ringbuffer")
