Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.002 (sec). Leaf size: 20

dsolve(x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)+4*x*diff(y(x),x)+2*y(x)=4*ln(x),y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y \left (x \right ) = 2 \ln \left (x \right )+\frac {c_{1}}{x}-3+\frac {c_{2}}{x^{2}} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.017 (sec). Leaf size: 23

DSolve[x^2*D[y[x],{x,2}]+4*x*D[y[x],x]+2*y[x]==4*Log[x],y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to \frac {c_1}{x^2}+2 \log (x)+\frac {c_2}{x}-3 \]
