netconsole: Enable compile time configuration

Enable netconsole features to be set at compilation time. Create two
Kconfig options that allow users to set extended logs and release
prepending features at compilation time.

Right now, the user needs to pass command line parameters to netconsole,
such as "+"/"r" to enable extended logs and version prepending features.

With these two options, the user could set the default values for the
features at compile time, and don't need to pass it in the command line
to get them enabled, simplifying the command line.

netconsole: Create a allocation helper

De-duplicate the initialization and allocation code for struct
netconsole_target.

The same allocation and initialization code is duplicated in two
different places in the netconsole subsystem, when the netconsole target
is initialized by command line parameters (alloc_param_target()), and
dynamically by sysfs (make_netconsole_target()).

Create a helper function, and call it from the two different functions.

netconsole: Use kstrtobool() instead of kstrtoint()

Replace kstrtoint() by kstrtobool() in the sysfs _store() functions.
This improves the user usability and simplify the code.

With this fix, it is now possible to use [YyNn] to set and unset a
feature. Old behaviour is still unchanged.

kstrtobool() is also safer and doesn't need the extra validation that
is required when converting a string to bool (end field in the struct),
which makes the code simpler.

netconsole: Append kernel version to message

Create a new netconsole runtime option that prepends the kernel version in
the netconsole message. This is useful to map kernel messages to kernel
version in a simple way, i.e., without checking somewhere which kernel
version the host that sent the message is using.

If this option is selected, then the "<release>," is prepended before the
netconsole message. This is an example of a netconsole output, with
release feature enabled:

netconsole: avoid CON_ENABLED misuse to track registration

The CON_ENABLED flag is being misused to track whether or not the
extended console should be or has been registered. Instead use
a local variable to decide if the extended console should be
registered and console_is_registered() to determine if it has
been registered.

Also add a check in cleanup_netconsole() to only unregister the
extended console if it has been registered.

Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic
reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn
but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively

dev_put_track() -> netdev_put()
dev_replace_track() -> netdev_ref_replace()

netconsole: implement extended console support

printk logbuf keeps various metadata and optional key=value dictionary for
structured messages, both of which are stripped when messages are handed
to regular console drivers.

It can be useful to have this metadata and dictionary available to
netconsole consumers. This obviously makes logging via netconsole more
complete and the sequence number in particular is useful in environments
where messages may be lost or reordered in transit - e.g. when netconsole
is used to collect messages in a large cluster where packets may have to
travel congested hops to reach the aggregator. The lost and reordered
messages can easily be identified and handled accordingly using the
sequence numbers.

printk recently added extended console support which can be selected by
setting CON_EXTENDED flag. From console driver side, not much changes.
The only difference is that the text passed to the write callback is
formatted the same way as /dev/kmsg.

This patch implements extended console support for netconsole which can be
enabled by either prepending "+" to a netconsole boot param entry or
echoing 1 to "extended" file in configfs. When enabled, netconsole
transmits extended log messages with headers identical to /dev/kmsg
output.

There's one complication due to message fragments. netconsole limits the
maximum message size to 1k and messages longer than that are split into
multiple fragments. As all extended console messages should carry
matching headers and be uniquely identifiable, each extended message
fragment carries full copy of the metadata and an extra header field to
identify the specific fragment. The optional header is of the form
"ncfrag=OFF/LEN" where OFF is the byte offset into the message body and
LEN is the total length.

To avoid unnecessarily making printk format extended messages, Extended
netconsole is registered with printk when the first extended netconsole is
configured.

netconsole: make all dynamic netconsoles share a mutex

Currently, each dynamic netconsole_target uses its own separate mutex to
synchronize the configuration operations.

This patch replaces the per-netconsole_target mutexes with a single
mutex - dynamic_netconsole_mutex. The reduced granularity doesn't hurt
anything, the code is minutely simpler and this'd allow adding
operations which should be synchronized across all dynamic netconsoles.

netconsole: fix NULL pointer dereference

We need to disable the netconsole (enabled = 0) before setting nt->np.dev
to NULL because otherwise we might still have users after the
netpoll_cleanup() since nt->enabled is set afterwards and we can
have a message which will result in a NULL pointer dereference.
It is very easy to hit dereferences all over the netpoll_send_udp function
by running the following two loops in parallel:
while [ 1 ]; do echo 1 > enabled; echo 0 > enabled; done;
while [ 1 ]; do echo 00:11:22:33:44:55 > remote_mac; done;
(the second loop is to generate messages, it can be done by anything)

We're safe to set nt->np.dev = NULL and nt->enabled = 0 with the spinlock
since it's required in the write_msg() function.

netconsole: fix a deadlock with rtnl and netconsole's mutex

This bug was introduced by commit
7a163bfb7ce50895bbe67300ea610d31b9c09230 ("netconsole: avoid a crash with
multiple sysfs writers"). In store_enabled() we have the following
sequence: acquire nt->mutex then rtnl, but in the netconsole netdev
notifier we have rtnl then nt->mutex effectively leading to a deadlock.
The NULL pointer dereference that the above commit tries to fix is
actually due to another bug in netpoll_cleanup(). This is fixed by dropping
the mutex from the netdev notifier as it's already protected by rtnl.

netconsole: avoid a crash with multiple sysfs writers

When my 'ifup eth' script was fired multiple times and ran concurrent on
my laptop, for some obscure /etc scripting reason, it was revealed
that the store_enabled() function in netconsole doesn't handle it nicely,
as recorded by the Oops below (a syslog paste, but not mangled too much
to prevent from discerning the traceback).

On Linux 3.10.4, this patch seeks to remedy the problem, and it has been
running stable on my laptop for a few days.
