Subject: [PATCH 0/2] printk: allow different timestamps for printk.time
Over the past years I've seen many reports of bugs that include
time-stamped kernel logs (enabled when CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y or
print.time=1 is specified as a kernel parameter) that do not align
with either external time stamped logs or /var/log/messages. This
also makes determining the time of a failure difficult in cases where
/var/log/messages is unavailable.
For example,
[root@...el-wildcatpass-06 ~]# date; echo "Hello!" > /dev/kmsg ; date
Thu Jul 20 11:38:22 EST 2017
Thu Jul 20 11:38:22 EST 2017
which displays
[83973.768912] Hello!
on the serial console.
Running a script to convert this to the stamped time,
[root@...el-wildcatpass-06 ~]# ./human.sh | tail -1
[Thu July 17 11:39:45 2017] Hello!
which is already off by 1 minute and 23 seconds off after ~24 hours of
uptime.
This occurs because the printk time stamp is obtained from a call to
local_clock() which (on x86) is a direct call to the hardware. These
hardware clock reads are not modified by the standard ntp or ptp protocol
The other timestamps are and that results in situations external
time sources are further and further offset from the kernel log
timestamps.
Implement printk.time settings to allow a user to specify the monotonic
or real clocks. The default is the local clock (hardware clock).
Real clock & 32-bit systems: Selecting the real clock printk timestamp may
lead to unlikely situations where a timestamp is wrong because the real time
offset is read without the protection of a sequence lock in the call to
ktime_get_log_ts() in printk_get_ts().
