Merge tag 'kgdb-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/danielt/linux
Pull kgdb updates from Daniel Thompson: "Nine patches this cycle and they split into just three topics: - Adopt coccinelle's recommendation to adopt str_plural() - A set of seven patches to refactor kdb_read() to improve both code clarity and its discipline with respect to fixed size buffers. This isn't just a refactor. Between them these also fix a cursor movement redraw problem and two buffer overflows (one latent and one real, albeit difficult to tickle). - Fix an NMI-safety problem when enqueuing kdb's keyboard reset code I wrote eight of the nine patches in this collection so many thanks to Doug Anderson for the reviews. The changes that affects drivers/tty/serial is acked by Greg KH" * tag 'kgdb-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/danielt/linux: serial: kgdboc: Fix NMI-safety problems from keyboard reset code kdb: Simplify management of tmpbuffer in kdb_read() kdb: Replace double memcpy() with memmove() in kdb_read() kdb: Use format-specifiers rather than memset() for padding in kdb_read() kdb: Merge identical case statements in kdb_read() kdb: Fix console handling when editing and tab-completing commands kdb: Use format-strings rather than '\0' injection in kdb_read() kdb: Fix buffer overflow during tab-complete kdb: Use str_plural() to fix Coccinelle warning

+ * When we leave the debug trap handler we need to reset the keyboard status
+ * (since the original keyboard state gets partially clobbered by kdb use of
+ * the keyboard).
+ *
+ * The path to deliver the reset is somewhat circuitous.
+ *
+ * To deliver the reset we register an input handler, reset the keyboard and
+ * then deregister the input handler. However, to get this done right, we do
+ * have to carefully manage the calling context because we can only register
+ * input handlers from task context.
+ *
+ * In particular we need to trigger the action from the debug trap handler with
+ * all its NMI and/or NMI-like oddities. To solve this the kgdboc trap exit code
+ * (the "post_exception" callback) uses irq_work_queue(), which is NMI-safe, to
+ * schedule a callback from a hardirq context. From there we have to defer the
+ * work again, this time using schedule_work(), to get a callback using the
+ * system workqueue, which runs in task context.
