Re: [PATCH v4 01/11] seq_buf: Do not print an empty line from an overflowed seq_buf_do_printk()

[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

> seq_buf_do_printk() prints a buffer line by line, then prints whatever
> follows the last newline. When a string has overflowed at exactly a
> newline, an empty line is printed since the pointer hasn't reached the
> overflow mark of the seq_buf. Switch to just check if the string is
> already empty and only print if not.

> The only caller is the memory cgroup OOM report, so this could only ever
> add a blank line to a report whose statistics already did not fit.

> Add a test that registers a console to count the records that
> seq_buf_do_printk() emits. It counts the records carrying the test's
> marker, and the records holding nothing but a line feed that arrive
> after one, so that unrelated kernel messages do not disturb it. Both
> states that reach the flaw are covered: exactly full, and overflowed.
