Subject: printk: queue wake_up_klogd irq_work only if per-CPU areas are ready
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 21:06:13 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200414120613.GD12779@google.com> (raw)

Hello,

Commit ab6f762f0f53162d41 Linus' HEAD.

printk_deferred() does not make sure that it's safe to write to
per-CPU data, which causes problems when printk_deferred() is
invoked "too early", before per-CPU areas are initialized. There
are multiple bug reports, e.g.
