Subject: x86/dumpstack: Print stack identifier on its own line
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=79439d8e15b51fa359a0f5d0c8f856c1f5b4bd56;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

x86/dumpstack: Print stack identifier on its own line

show_trace_log_lvl() prints the stack id (e.g. "<IRQ>") without a
newline so that any stack address printed after it will appear on the
same line.  That causes the first stack address to be vertically
misaligned with the rest, making it visually cluttered and slightly
confusing:

  Call Trace:
   <IRQ> [<ffffffff814431c3>] dump_stack+0x86/0xc3
   [<ffffffff8100828b>] perf_callchain_kernel+0x14b/0x160
   [<ffffffff811e915f>] get_perf_callchain+0x15f/0x2b0
   ...
   <EOI> [<ffffffff8189c6c3>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x33/0x60
   [<ffffffff810e1c84>] finish_task_switch+0xb4/0x250
   [<ffffffff8106f7dc>] do_async_page_fault+0x2c/0xa0

It will look worse once we start printing pt_regs registers found in the
middle of the stack:

  <IRQ> RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8189c6c3>]  [<ffffffff8189c6c3>] _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x33/0x60
  RSP: 0018:ffff88007876f720  EFLAGS: 00000206
  RAX: ffff8800786caa40 RBX: ffff88007d5da140 RCX: 0000000000000007
  ...

Improve readability by adding a newline to the stack name:

  Call Trace:
   <IRQ>
   [<ffffffff814431c3>] dump_stack+0x86/0xc3
   [<ffffffff8100828b>] perf_callchain_kernel+0x14b/0x160
   [<ffffffff811e915f>] get_perf_callchain+0x15f/0x2b0
   ...
   <EOI>
   [<ffffffff8189c6c3>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x33/0x60
   [<ffffffff810e1c84>] finish_task_switch+0xb4/0x250
   [<ffffffff8106f7dc>] do_async_page_fault+0x2c/0xa0

Now that "continued" lines are no longer needed, we can also remove the
hack of using the empty string (aka KERN_CONT) and replace it with
KERN_DEFAULT.
