[PATCH v2 1/3] powerpc: Stop using pr_cont() in __die()

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Date: 2019-01-10 11:59:35

Using pr_cont() risks having our output interleaved with other output
from other CPUs. Instead print everything in a single printk() call.

[PATCH v2 2/3] powerpc: Show PAGE_SIZE in __die() output

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Date: 2019-01-10 12:01:53

The page size the kernel is built with is useful info when debugging a
crash, so add it to the output in __die().

Result looks like eg:

  kernel BUG at drivers/misc/lkdtm/bugs.c:63!
  Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1]
  LE PAGE_SIZE=64K SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries

[PATCH v2 3/3] powerpc/64s: Add MMU type to __die() output

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Date: 2019-01-10 12:04:53

On Power9 machines (64-bit Book3S), we can be running with either the
Hash table or Radix tree MMU enabled. So add some text to the __die()
output to tell us which is enabled, for the case where all you have is
the oops output and no other information.

Example output:

  kernel BUG at drivers/misc/lkdtm/bugs.c:63!
  Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1]
  LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries
  Modules linked in: kvm vmx_crypto binfmt_misc ip_tables x_tables

Maybe this printk() should also be merge with the following to further limit risks of interleaving ?

Possibly yeah.

Though I was comparing it to other arches and I think we could improve
the info on that line. So I'll leave it for now.
