Indeed, the port->lock wrapper takes ownership +for anything relating to the hardware. + +Since ownership can be lost at any time due to handover or +takeover, a context _should_ be prepared to back out +immediately and carefully. However, there are many scenarios +where the context _must_ reacquire ownership in order to +finalize or revert hardware changes. + +One such example is when interrupts are disabled by a context. +No other context will automagically re-enable the interrupts. +For this case, the disabling context _must_ reacquire nbcon +ownership so that it can re-enable the interrupts. + +Provide nbcon_reacquire() for exactly this purpose. + +Note that for printing contexts, after a successful reacquire +the context will have no output buffer because that has been +lost. nbcon_reacquire() cannot be used to resume printing. + +Signed-off-by: John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de> +Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> +--- + include/linux/console.h | 2 ++ + kernel/printk/nbcon.c | 32 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + 2 files changed, 34 insertions(+) + +--- a/include/linux/console.h ++++ b/include/linux/console.h +@@ -481,12 +481,14 @@ extern void nbcon_cpu_emergency_exit(voi + extern bool nbcon_can_proceed(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt); + extern bool nbcon_enter_unsafe(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt); + extern bool nbcon_exit_unsafe(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt); ++extern void nbcon_reacquire(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt); + #else + static inline void nbcon_cpu_emergency_enter(void) { } + static inline void nbcon_cpu_emergency_exit(void) { } + static inline bool nbcon_can_proceed(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt) { return false; } + static inline bool nbcon_enter_unsafe(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt) { return false; } + static inline bool nbcon_exit_unsafe(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt) { return false; } ++static inline void nbcon_reacquire(struct nbcon_write_context *wctxt) { } + #endif + + extern int console_set_on_cmdline; +--- a/kernel/printk/nbcon.c ++++ b/kernel/printk/nbcon.c +@@ -831,6 +831,38 @@ bool nbcon_exit_unsafe(struct nbcon_writ + EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(nbcon_exit_unsafe); + + /** ++ * nbcon_reacquire - Reacquire a console after losing ownership ++ * @wctxt: The write context that was handed to the write function ++ * ++ * Since ownership can be lost at any time due to handover or takeover, a ++ * printing context _should_ be prepared to back out immediately and ++ * carefully.
