Please don't do this.

It has historically not worked well, and it still doesn't actually
work reliably. In particular, it currently works in the *logs* (ie
dmesg), but not necessarily on screen (because "msg_print_text()" does
do the "look for newlines in the middle", but console_cont_flush()
does not).

It so happens that the patch I've been sending people probably fixes
that odd case too, almost entirely by mistake (if "by mistake" you
mean "it gets rid of the insane special cases that cause problems like
this").

So you can try the attached patch. It likely fixes your issues simply
because it removes all the crazy code.

Side note: even with my patch, the above kind of stuff hits other special cases.

In particular, the "extended header" that is printed to special
consoles (really just the network console) will only print one header
for each record. So you'll end up with the "normal" logs having time
appended to each line, but the extended logs that use
"msg_print_ext_body()" will have just a header for each record, and
then within the record the newlines will be escaped as "\0a", I think.

We could fix that too, but basically newlines in the middle of a
string has never really worked reliably. I think historically (long
long ago) they were just printed as-is, and did not have the loglevel
or the timestamp, for example. Now those should work for normal
logging, but there clearly are still cases where it breaks down.

Of course, you probably could argue that nobody cares too deeply about
the exact format of the extended logging, and you'd probably be right.
But still..

And yes, what we probably *should* do is to do the newline breaking
when adding things to the log, rather than doing it in the
"msg_print_text()" phase.

There's a reason why I actually would have liked to entirely rewrite
the whole printk mess. But there's also a reason I didn't - I'm not
quite _that_ much of a glutton for punishment.

Sure; I'll avoid that.

it seems that's a drop in the ocean, though. :/

That worked for me. I see consistent results over the UART and in dmesg
with that applied atop of v4.9-rc2. Feel free to add:

Thanks,

Yeah.

One thing that'd be nice one day is to remove all the
#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
lines and have printk do that instead using a singleton
or a lookup for KBUILD_MODNAME as appropriate.

You sure?
