If the persistent boot mapped ring buffer is used for trace_printk(), force it to not use the binary versions. trace_printk() by default uses bin_printf() that only saves the pointer to the format and not the format itself inside the ring buffer. But for a persistent buffer that is read after reboot, the pointers to the format strings may not be the same, or worse, not even exist! Instead, just force the more robust, but slower, version that does the formatting before saving into the ring buffer. The boot mapped buffer can now be used for trace_printk and friends! Using the trace_printk() and the persistent buffer was used to debug the issue with the osnoise tracer: Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240822103443.6a6ae051@gandalf.local.home/ Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Vincent Donnefort <vdonnefort@google.com> Cc: Joel Fernandes <joel@joelfernandes.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vineeth Pillai <vineeth@bitbyteword.org> Cc: Beau Belgrave <beaub@linux.microsoft.com> Cc: Alexander Graf <graf@amazon.com> Cc: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: "Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
