File 520119fc-xen-conring-Write-to-console-ring-even-if-console-lock-is-busted.patch of Package xen
# Commit 66450c1d1ab3c4480bbba949113b95d1ab6a943a # Date 2013-08-06 17:45:00 +0200 # Author Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> # Committer Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> xen/conring: Write to console ring even if console lock is busted console_lock_busted gets set when an NMI/MCE/Double Fault handler decides to bring Xen down in an emergency. conring_puts() cannot block and does not have problematic interactions with the console_lock. Therefore, choosing to not put the string into the console ring simply means that the kexec environment cant find any panic() message caused by an IST interrupt, which is unhelpful for debugging purposes. In the case that two pcpus fight with console_force_unlock(), having slightly garbled strings in the console ring is far more useful than having nothing at all.
