Merge tag 'printk-for-4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Different vendors have a different expectation about a console
   quietness. Make it configurable to reduce bike-shedding about the
   upstream default

 - Decide about the message visibility when the message is stored. It
   avoids races caused by a delayed console handling

 - Always store printk() messages into the per-CPU buffers again in NMI.
   The only exception is when flushing trace log in panic(). There the
   risk of loosing messages is worth an eventual reordering

 - Handle invalid %pO printf modifiers correctly

 - Better handle %p printf modifier tests before crng is initialized

 - Some clean up

* tag 'printk-for-4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk:
  lib/vsprintf: Do not handle %pO[^F] as %px

  printk/nmi: Prevent deadlock when accessing the main log buffer in NMI
  printk: Create helper function to queue deferred console handling
  printk: Split the code for storing a message into the log buffer
  printk: Clean up syslog_print_all()
  printk: Remove unnecessary kmalloc() from syslog during clear
  printk: Make CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET configurable
  printk: make sure to print log on console.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
