From: Petr Mladek Date: Wed, 22 Nov 2023 11:23:43 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 02/46] printk: Properly deal with nbcon consoles on seq init Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/6.9/older/patches-6.9-rt5.tar.xz If a non-boot console is registering and boot consoles exist, the consoles are flushed before being unregistered. This allows the non-boot console to continue where the boot console left off. If for whatever reason flushing fails, the lowest seq found from any of the enabled boot consoles is used. Until now con->seq was checked. However, if it is an nbcon boot console, the function nbcon_seq_read() must be used to read seq because con->seq is not updated for nbcon consoles. Check if it is an nbcon boot console and if so call nbcon_seq_read() to read seq. Also, avoid usage of con->seq as temporary storage of the starting record. Instead, rename console_init_seq() to get_init_console_seq() and just return the value. For nbcon consoles set the sequence via nbcon_init(), for legacy consoles set con->seq. The cleaned design should make sure that the value stays and is set before the printing kthread is created.
