Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) afdc34a3d3 printk: Add per_cpu printk func to allow printk to be diverted ... Being able to divert printk to call another function besides the normal logging is useful for such things like NMI handling. If some functions are to be called from NMI that does printk() it is possible to lock up the box if the nmi handler triggers when another printk is happening. One example of this use is to perform a stack trace on all CPUs via NMI. But if the NMI is to do the printk() it can cause the system to lock up. By allowing the printk to be diverted to another function that can safely record the printk output and then print it when it in a safe context then NMIs will be safe to call these functions like show_regs().
