commit 7c6c86b36a36dd4a13d30bba07718e767aa2e7a1 upstream. Since some time now, printk() adds carriage return, leading to unusable xmon output if there is no udbg backend available: [ 54.288722] sysrq: Entering xmon [ 54.292209] Vector: 0 at [cace3d2c] [ 54.292274] pc: [ 54.292331] c0023650 [ 54.292468] : xmon+0x28/0x58 [ 54.292519] [ 54.292574] lr: [ 54.292630] c0023724 [ 54.292749] : sysrq_handle_xmon+0xa4/0xfc [ 54.292801] [ 54.292867] sp: cace3de8 [ 54.292931] msr: 9032 [ 54.292999] current = 0xc28d0000 [ 54.293072] pid = 377, comm = sh [ 54.293157] Linux version 5.10.0-rc6-s3k-dev-01364-gedf13f0ccd76-dirty (root@po17688vm.idsi0.si.c-s.fr) (powerpc64-linux-gcc (GCC) 10.1.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.34) #4211 PREEMPT Fri Dec 4 09:32:11 UTC 2020 [ 54.293287] enter ? for help [ 54.293470] [cace3de8] [ 54.293532] c0023724 [ 54.293654] sysrq_handle_xmon+0xa4/0xfc [ 54.293711] (unreliable) ...

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 Restructured Text 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.
