kdb_read() contains special case logic to force it exit after reading
a single character. We can remove all the special case logic by directly
calling the function to read a single character instead. This also
allows us to tidy up the function prototype which, because it now matches
getchar(), we can also rename in order to make its role clearer.
This does involve some extra code to handle btaprompt properly but we
don't mind the new lines of code here because the old code had some
interesting problems (bad newline handling, treating unexpected
characters like <cr>).

Currently kdb_read_get_key() contains complex control flow that, on
close inspection, turns out to be unnecessary. In particular:
1. It is impossible to enter the branch conditioned on (escape_delay == 1)
except when the loop enters with (escape_delay == 2) allowing us to
combine the branches.
2. Most of the code conditioned on (escape_delay == 2) simply modifies
local data and then breaks out of the loop causing the function to
return escape_data[0].
3. Based on #2 there is not actually any need to ever explicitly set
escape_delay to 2 because we it is much simpler to directly return
escape_data[0] instead.
4. escape_data[0] is, for all but one exit path, known to be '\e'.
Simplify the code based on these observations.
There is a subtle (and harmless) change of behaviour resulting from this
simplification: instead of letting the escape timeout after ~1998
milliseconds we now timeout after ~2000 milliseconds

kdb_read_get_key() has extremely complex break/continue control flow
managed by state variables and is very hard to review or modify. In
particular the way the escape sequence handling interacts with the
general control flow is hard to follow. Separate out the escape key
handling, without changing the control flow. This makes the main body of
the code easier to review.

In kdb when you do 'btc' (back trace on CPU) it doesn't necessarily
give you the right info. Specifically on many architectures
(including arm64, where I tested) you can't dump the stack of a
"running" process that isn't the process running on the current CPU.
This can be seen by this:
echo SOFTLOCKUP > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
# wait 2 seconds
<sysrq>g
Here's what I see now on rk3399-gru-kevin. I see the stack crawl for
the CPU that handled the sysrq but everything else just shows me stuck
in __switch_to() which is bogus:

The problem is that 'btc' eventually boils down to
show_stack(task_struct, NULL);
...and show_stack() doesn't work for "running" CPUs because their
registers haven't been stashed.
On x86 things might work better (I haven't tested) because kdb has a
special case for x86 in kdb_show_stack() where it passes the stack
pointer to show_stack(). This wouldn't work on arm64 where the stack
crawling function seems needs the "fp" and "pc", not the "sp" which is
presumably why arm64's show_stack() function totally ignores the "sp"
parameter.
NOTE: we _can_ get a good stack dump for all the cpus if we manually
switch each one to the kdb master and do a back trace. AKA:
cpu 4
bt
...will give the expected trace. That's because now arm64's
dump_backtrace will now see that "tsk == current" and go through a
different path.
In this patch I fix the problems by catching a request to stack crawl
a task that's running on a CPU and then I ask that CPU to do the stack
crawl.
NOTE: this will (presumably) change what stack crawls are printed for
x86 machines. Now kdb functions will show up in the stack crawl.
Presumably this is OK but if it's not we can go back and add a special
case for x86 again.

I noticed that when I did "btc <cpu>" and the CPU I passed in hadn't
rounded up that I'd crash. I was going to copy the same fix from
commit 162bc7f5af ("kdb: Don't back trace on a cpu that didn't round
up") into the "not all the CPUs" case, but decided it'd be better to
clean things up a little bit.
This consolidates the two code paths. It is _slightly_ wasteful in in
that the checks for "cpu" being too small or being offline isn't
really needed when we're iterating over all online CPUs, but that
really shouldn't hurt. Better to have the same code path.
While at it, eliminate at least one slightly ugly (and totally
needless) recursive use of kdb_parse().

Right now kgdb/kdb hooks up to debug panics by registering for the panic
notifier. This works OK except that it means that kgdb/kdb gets called
_after_ the CPUs in the system are taken offline. That means that if
anything important was happening on those CPUs (like something that might
have contributed to the panic) you can't debug them.
Specifically I ran into a case where I got a panic because a task was
"blocked for more than 120 seconds" which was detected on CPU 2. I nicely
got shown stack traces in the kernel log for all CPUs including CPU 0,
which was running 'PID: 111 Comm: kworker/0:1H' and was in the middle of
__mmc_switch().
I then ended up at the kdb prompt where switched over to kgdb to try to
look at local variables of the process on CPU 0. I found that I couldn't.
Digging more, I found that I had no info on any tasks running on CPUs
other than CPU 2 and that asking kdb for help showed me "Error: no saved
data for this cpu". This was because all the CPUs were offline.
Let's move the entry of kdb/kgdb to a direct call from panic() and stop
using the generic notifier. Putting a direct call in allows us to order
things more properly and it also doesn't seem like we're breaking any
abstractions by calling into the debugger from the panic function.

If you drop into kdb and type "summary", it prints out a line that

The version of the C Compiler is already printed at boot up and it
doesn't seem useful to replicate this in kdb. Let's just delete it.
We can also delete the bit of the Makefile that called the C compiler

If we're using the default implementation of kgdb_roundup_cpus() that
uses smp_call_function_single_async() we can end up hanging
kgdb_roundup_cpus() if we try to round up a CPU that failed to round
up before.
Specifically smp_call_function_single_async() will try to wait on the
csd lock for the CPU that we're trying to round up. If the previous
round up never finished then that lock could still be held and we'll
just sit there hanging.
There's not a lot of use trying to round up a CPU that failed to round
up before. Let's keep a flag that indicates whether the CPU started
but didn't finish to round up before. If we see that flag set then
we'll skip the next round up.
In general we have a few goals here:
- We never want to end up calling smp_call_function_single_async()
when the csd is still locked. This is accomplished because
flush_smp_call_function_queue() unlocks the csd _before_ invoking
the callback. That means that when kgdb_nmicallback() runs we know
for sure the the csd is no longer locked. Thus when we set
"rounding_up = false" we know for sure that the csd is unlocked.
- If there are no timeouts rounding up we should never skip a round
up.
NOTE #1: In general trying to continue running after failing to round
up CPUs doesn't appear to be supported in the debugger. When I
simulate this I find that kdb reports "Catastrophic error detected"
when I try to continue. I can overrule and continue anyway, but it
should be noted that we may be entering the land of dragons here.
Possibly the "Catastrophic error detected" was added _because_ of the
future failure to round up, but even so this is an area of the code
that hasn't been strongly tested.
NOTE #2: I did a bit of testing before and after this change. I
introduced a 10 second hang in the kernel while holding a spinlock
that I could invoke on a certain CPU with 'taskset -c 3 cat /sys/...".
Before this change if I did:
- Invoke hang
- Enter debugger
- g (which warns about Catastrophic error, g again to go anyway)
- g
- Enter debugger
...I'd hang the rest of the 10 seconds without getting a debugger
prompt. After this change I end up in the debugger the 2nd time after
only 1 second with the standard warning about 'Timed out waiting for
secondary CPUs.'
I'll also note that once the CPU finished waiting I could actually
debug it (aka "btc" worked)
I won't promise that everything works perfectly if the errant CPU
comes back at just the wrong time (like as we're entering or exiting
the debugger) but it certainly seems like an improvement.
NOTE #3: setting 'kgdb_info[cpu].rounding_up = false' is in
kgdb_nmicallback() instead of kgdb_call_nmi_hook() because some
implementations override kgdb_call_nmi_hook(). It shouldn't hurt to
have it in kgdb_nmicallback() in any case.
NOTE #4: this logic is really only needed because there is no API call
like "smp_try_call_function_single_async()" or "smp_csd_is_locked()".
If such an API existed then we'd use it instead, but it seemed a bit
much to add an API like this just for kgdb.

Looking closely at it, it seems like a really bad idea to be calling
local_irq_enable() in kgdb_roundup_cpus(). If nothing else that seems
like it could violate spinlock semantics and cause a deadlock.
Instead, let's use a private csd alongside
smp_call_function_single_async() to round up the other CPUs. Using
smp_call_function_single_async() doesn't require interrupts to be
enabled so we can remove the offending bit of code.
In order to avoid duplicating this across all the architectures that
use the default kgdb_roundup_cpus(), we'll add a "weak" implementation
to debug_core.c.
Looking at all the people who previously had copies of this code,
there were a few variants. I've attempted to keep the variants
working like they used to. Specifically:
* For arch/arc we passed NULL to kgdb_nmicallback() instead of
get_irq_regs().
* For arch/mips there was a bit of extra code around
kgdb_nmicallback()
NOTE: In this patch we will still get into trouble if we try to round
up a CPU that failed to round up before. We'll try to round it up
again and potentially hang when we try to grab the csd lock. That's
not new behavior but we'll still try to do better in a future patch.

Since commit ad67b74d24 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p"),

instead of real addresses in order to avoid leaking addresses in

The kdb code will print the monotonic time by ktime_get_ts(), but
the ktime_get_ts() will be protected by a sequence lock, that will
introduce one deadlock risk if the lock was already held in the
context from which we entered the debugger.
Thus we can use the ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() to get the monotonic
time, which is NMI safe access to clock monotonic. Moreover we can
remove the 'struct timespec', which is not y2038 safe.

kdb is the only user of the __current_kernel_time() interface, which is
not y2038 safe and should be removed at some point.
The kdb code also goes to great lengths to print the time in a
human-readable format from 'struct timespec', again using a non-y2038-safe
re-implementation of the generic time_to_tm() code.
Using __current_kernel_time() here is necessary since the regular
accessors that require a sequence lock might hang when called during the
xtime update. However, this is safe in the particular case since kdb is
only interested in the tv_sec field that is updated atomically.
In order to make this y2038-safe, I'm converting the code to the generic
time64_to_tm helper, but that introduces the problem that we have no
interface like __current_kernel_time() that provides a 64-bit timestamp
in a lockless, safe and architecture-independent way. I have multiple
ideas for how to solve that:
- __ktime_get_real_seconds() is lockless, but can return
incorrect results on 32-bit architectures in the special case that
we are in the process of changing the time across the epoch, either
during the timer tick that overflows the seconds in 2038, or while
calling settimeofday.
- ktime_get_real_fast_ns() would work in this context, but does
require a call into the clocksource driver to return a high-resolution
timestamp. This may have undesired side-effects in the debugger,
since we want to limit the interactions with the rest of the kernel.
- Adding a ktime_get_real_fast_seconds() based on tk_fast_mono
plus tkr->base_real without the tk_clock_read() delta. Not sure about
the value of adding yet another interface here.
- Changing the existing ktime_get_real_seconds() to use
tk_fast_mono on 32-bit architectures rather than xtime_sec. I think
this could work, but am not entirely sure if this is an improvement.
I picked the first of those for simplicity here. It's technically
not correct but probably good enough as the time is only used for the
debugging output and the race will likely never be hit in practice.
Another downside is having to move the declaration into a public header
file.
Let me know if anyone has a different preference.

As there is no meaningful siginfo sent
- Use SEND_SIG_PRIV instead of generating a siginfo for a kdb
signal. The generated siginfo had a bogus rationale and was
not correct in the face of pid namespaces. SEND_SIG_PRIV
is simpler and actually correct.
- As the code grabs siglock just send the signal with siglock

kdb_trap_printk allows to pass normal printk() messages to kdb via
vkdb_printk(). For example, it is used to get backtrace using the
classic show_stack(), see kdb_show_stack().
vkdb_printf() tries to avoid a potential infinite loop by disabling the
trap. But this approach is racy, for example:
CPU1 CPU2
vkdb_printf()
// assume that kdb_trap_printk == 0
saved_trap_printk = kdb_trap_printk;
kdb_trap_printk = 0;
kdb_show_stack()
kdb_trap_printk++;
Problem1: Now, a nested printk() on CPU0 calls vkdb_printf()
even when it should have been disabled. It will not
cause a deadlock but...
// using the outdated saved value: 0
kdb_trap_printk = saved_trap_printk;
kdb_trap_printk--;
Problem2: Now, kdb_trap_printk == -1 and will stay like this.
It means that all messages will get passed to kdb from
now on.
This patch removes the racy saved_trap_printk handling. Instead, the
recursion is prevented by a check for the locked CPU.
The solution is still kind of racy. A non-related printk(), from
another process, might get trapped by vkdb_printf(). And the wanted
printk() might not get trapped because kdb_printf_cpu is assigned. But
this problem existed even with the original code.
A proper solution would be to get_cpu() before setting kdb_trap_printk
and trap messages only from this CPU. I am not sure if it is worth the
effort, though.
In fact, the race is very theoretical. When kdb is running any of the
commands that use kdb_trap_printk there is a single active CPU and the
other CPUs should be in a holding pen inside kgdb_cpu_enter().
The only time this is violated is when there is a timeout waiting for
the other CPUs to report to the holding pen.
Finally, note that the situation is a bit schizophrenic. vkdb_printf()
explicitly allows recursion but only from KDB code that calls
kdb_printf() directly. On the other hand, the generic printk()
recursion is not allowed because it might cause an infinite loop. This
is why we could not hide the decision inside vkdb_printf() easily.

kdb_printf_lock does not prevent other CPUs from entering the critical
section because it is ignored when KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is set.
The problematic situation might look like:
CPU0 CPU1
vkdb_printf()
if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK))
KDB_STATE_SET(PRINTF_LOCK);
spin_lock_irqsave(&kdb_printf_lock, flags);
vkdb_printf()
if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK))
BANG: The PRINTF_LOCK state is set and CPU1 is entering the critical
section without spinning on the lock.
The problem is that the code tries to implement locking using two state
variables that are not handled atomically. Well, we need a custom
locking because we want to allow reentering the critical section on the
very same CPU.
Let's use solution from Petr Zijlstra that was proposed for a similar
scenario, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161018171513.734367391@infradead.org
This patch uses the same trick with cmpxchg(). The only difference is
that we want to handle only recursion from the same context and
therefore we disable interrupts.
In addition, KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is removed. In fact, we are not able
to set it a non-racy way.

kdb_event state variable is only set but never checked in the kernel
code.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kdb/msg01733.html suggests that this
variable affected WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() in the original
implementation. But this check never went upstream.
The semantic is unclear and racy. The value is updated after the
kdb_printf_lock is acquired and after it is released. It should be
symmetric at minimum. The value should be manipulated either inside or
outside the locked area.
Fortunately, it seems that the original function is gone and we could
simply remove the state variable.

We've got a delay loop waiting for secondary CPUs. That loop uses
loops_per_jiffy. However, loops_per_jiffy doesn't actually mean how
many tight loops make up a jiffy on all architectures. It is quite
common to see things like this in the boot log:
Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer
frequency.. 48.00 BogoMIPS (lpj=24000)
In my case I was seeing lots of cases where other CPUs timed out
entering the debugger only to print their stack crawls shortly after the
kdb> prompt was written.
Elsewhere in kgdb we already use udelay(), so that should be safe enough
to use to implement our timeout. We'll delay 1 ms for 1000 times, which
should give us a full second of delay (just like the old code wanted)
but allow us to notice that we're done every 1 ms.

Commit 4bcc595ccd ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing
continuation lines") allows to define more message headers for a single
message. The motivation is that continuous lines might get mixed.
Therefore it make sense to define the right log level for every piece of
a cont line.
This patch introduces printk_skip_headers() that will skip all headers
and uses it in the kdb code instead of printk_skip_level().
This approach helps to fix other printk_skip_level() users
independently.

expanded in the future to support "log" and "write" modes, but that
will need to be architecture-specific.
This also makes KDB software breakpoints more usable, as read-only
mappings can now be disabled on any kernel.

Makes it easier to handle init vs core cleanly, though the change is

It simplifies the rbtree code immediately, however, while keeping the

On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting
after a panic.
Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent
entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to
interact with debugger.
To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra
configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via
/proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the
default value.
Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to
perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting
for the user input incase of panic.

Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the
| grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted
shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the
entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly
useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a
useful trigger string *before* the point of interest.
This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple
forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a
command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command.
Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the
display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself
when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as
kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed.
This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag
from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI.
Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the
NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the
backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack
dump) rather than like oops.
Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that
cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix
(consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off
before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by
kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems
grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage
of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to
that of kdb's "sr h".
This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages
before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also
act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller
provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to
printk().
The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a
regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit
04d2c8c83d ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte
pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original
behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command
display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

Currently all kdb commands are enabled whenever kdb is deployed. This
makes it difficult to deploy kdb to help debug certain types of
systems.
Android phones provide one example; the FIQ debugger found on some
Android devices has a deliberately weak set of commands to allow the
debugger to enabled very late in the production cycle.
Certain kiosk environments offer another interesting case where an
engineer might wish to probe the system state using passive inspection
commands without providing sufficient power for a passer by to root it.
Without any restrictions, obtaining the root rights via KDB is a matter of
a few commands, and works everywhere. For example, log in as a normal
user:
cbou:~$ id
uid=1001(cbou) gid=1001(cbou) groups=1001(cbou)
Now enter KDB (for example via sysrq):
Entering kdb (current=0xffff8800065bc740, pid 920) due to Keyboard Entry
kdb> ps
23 sleeping system daemon (state M) processes suppressed,
use 'ps A' to see all.

All we need is the offset of cred pointers. We can look up the offset in
the distro's kernel source, but it is unnecessary. We can just start
dumping init's task_struct, until we see the process name:
kdb> md 0xffff880007078000
0xffff880007078000 0000000000000001 ffff88000703c000 ................
0xffff880007078010 0040210000000002 0000000000000000 .....!@.........
[...snip...]
0xffff8800070782b0 ffff8800073e0580 ffff8800073e0580 ..>.......>.....
0xffff8800070782c0 0000000074696e69 0000000000000000 init............
^ Here, 'init'. Creds are just above it, so the offset is 0x02b0.
Now we set up init's creds for our non-privileged shell:
kdb> mm 0xffff8800065bc740+0x02b0 0xffff8800073e0580
0xffff8800065bc9f0 = 0xffff8800073e0580
kdb> mm 0xffff8800065bc740+0x02b8 0xffff8800073e0580
0xffff8800065bc9f8 = 0xffff8800073e0580
And thus gaining the root:
kdb> go
cbou:~$ id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
cbou:~$ bash
root:~#
p.s. No distro enables kdb by default (although, with a nice KDB-over-KMS
feature availability, I would expect at least some would enable it), so
it's not actually some kind of a major issue.

a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp
was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new
strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.
To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the

This patch is a continuation of efforts trying to optimize find_vma(),
avoiding potentially expensive rbtree walks to locate a vma upon faults.
The original approach (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/1/410), where the
largest vma was also cached, ended up being too specific and random,
thus further comparison with other approaches were needed. There are
two things to consider when dealing with this, the cache hit rate and
the latency of find_vma(). Improving the hit-rate does not necessarily
translate in finding the vma any faster, as the overhead of any fancy
caching schemes can be too high to consider.
We currently cache the last used vma for the whole address space, which
provides a nice optimization, reducing the total cycles in find_vma() by
up to 250%, for workloads with good locality. On the other hand, this
simple scheme is pretty much useless for workloads with poor locality.
Analyzing ebizzy runs shows that, no matter how many threads are
running, the mmap_cache hit rate is less than 2%, and in many situations
below 1%.
The proposed approach is to replace this scheme with a small per-thread
cache, maximizing hit rates at a very low maintenance cost.
Invalidations are performed by simply bumping up a 32-bit sequence
number. The only expensive operation is in the rare case of a seq
number overflow, where all caches that share the same address space are
flushed. Upon a miss, the proposed replacement policy is based on the
page number that contains the virtual address in question. Concretely,
the following results are seen on an 80 core, 8 socket x86-64 box:
1) System bootup: Most programs are single threaded, so the per-thread
scheme does improve ~50% hit rate by just adding a few more slots to
the cache.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 50.61% | 19.90 |
| patched | 73.45% | 13.58 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
2) Kernel build: This one is already pretty good with the current
approach as we're dealing with good locality.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 75.28% | 11.03 |
| patched | 88.09% | 9.31 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
3) Oracle 11g Data Mining (4k pages): Similar to the kernel build workload.
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 70.66% | 17.14 |
| patched | 91.15% | 12.57 |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
4) Ebizzy: There's a fair amount of variation from run to run, but this
approach always shows nearly perfect hit rates, while baseline is just
about non-existent. The amounts of cycles can fluctuate between
anywhere from ~60 to ~116 for the baseline scheme, but this approach
reduces it considerably. For instance, with 80 threads:
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) |
+----------------+----------+------------------+
| baseline | 1.06% | 91.54 |
| patched | 99.97% | 14.18 |

The function kgdb_breakpoint() sets up break point at
compile time by calling arch_kgdb_breakpoint();
Though this call is surrounded by wmb() barrier,
the compile can still re-order the break point,
because this scheduling barrier is not a code motion
barrier in gcc.
Making kgdb_breakpoint() as noinline solves this problem
of code reording around break point instruction and also
avoids problem of being called as inline function from
other places

This patch adds a kgdb_nmicallin() interface that can be used by
external NMI handlers to call the KGDB/KDB handler. The primary
need for this is for those types of NMI interrupts where all the
CPUs have already received the NMI signal. Therefore no
send_IPI(NMI) is required, and in fact it will cause a 2nd
unhandled NMI to occur. This generates the "Dazed and Confuzed"
messages.
Since all the CPUs are getting the NMI at roughly the same time,
it's not guaranteed that the first CPU that hits the NMI handler
will manage to enter KGDB and set the dbg_master_lock before the
slaves start entering. The new argument "send_ready" was added
for KGDB to signal the NMI handler to release the slave CPUs for
entry into KGDB.

The kdb_defcmd can only be used to display the available command aliases
while using the kernel debug shell. If you try to define a new macro
while the kernel debugger is active it will oops. The debug shell
macros must use pre-allocated memory set aside at the time kdb_init()
is run, and the kdb_defcmd is restricted to only working at the time
that the kdb_init sequence is being run, which only occurs if you
actually activate the kernel debugger.

When locally adding in some additional kdb commands, I stumbled
across an issue with the dynamic expansion of the kdb command table.
When the number of kdb commands exceeds the size of the statically
allocated kdb_base_commands[] array, additional space is allocated in
the kdb_register_repeat() routine.
The unused portion of the newly allocated array was not being initialized
to zero properly and this would result in segfaults when help '?' was
executed or when a search for a non-existing command would traverse the
command table beyond the end of valid command entries and then attempt
to use the non-zeroed area as actual command entries.

It is possible to miss data when using the kdb pager. The kdb pager
does not pay attention to the maximum column constraint of the screen
or serial terminal. This result is not incrementing the shown lines
correctly and the pager will print more lines that fit on the screen.
Obviously that is less than useful when using a VGA console where you
cannot scroll back.
The pager will now look at the kdb_buffer string to see how many
characters are printed. It might not be perfect considering you can
output ASCII that might move the cursor position, but it is a
substantially better approximation for viewing dmesg and trace logs.
This also means that the vt screen needs to set the kdb COLUMNS
variable.

There is extra state information that needs to be exposed in the

debug_core only uses the the probe_kernel_write() to install
breakpoints, but this is not enough for all the archs. Some arch such
as x86 need to use text_poke() in order to install a breakpoint into a

Passing the kgdb_bpt structure to kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() and
kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint() allows other archs to set the type
variable which indicates how the breakpoint was installed.

It is worth noting that the second use of dbg_io_ops->is_console
is protected by the KDB_PAGER state variable which would only
get set when kdb is fully active and initialized. If we
ever encounter changes or defects in the KDB_PAGER state
we do not want to crash the kernel in a kdb_printf/printk.

Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system
Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

kdb: Add message about CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA on failure to install breakpoint
kdb: Avoid using dbg_io_ops until it is initialized
kgdb,debug_core: add the ability to control the reboot notifier
KDB: Fix usability issues relating to the 'enter' key.

kgdb: Respect that flush op is optional
kgdb: x86: Return all segment registers also in 64-bit mode
On x86, if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, one cannot set breakpoints
via KDB. Apparently this is a well-known problem, as at least one distribution
now ships with both KDB enabled and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y for security reasons.
This patch adds an printk message to the breakpoint failure case,
in order to provide suggestions about how to use the debugger.

This fixes a bug with setting a breakpoint during kdb initialization
(from kdb_cmds). Any call to kdb_printf() before the initialization
of the kgdboc serial console driver (which happens much later during
bootup than kdb_init), results in kernel panic due to the use of
dbg_io_ops before it is initialized.

Sometimes it is desirable to stop the kernel debugger before allowing
a system to reboot either with kdb or kgdb. This patch adds the
ability to turn the reboot notifier on and off or enter the debugger
and stop kernel execution before rebooting.
It is possible to change the setting after booting the kernel with the
following:
echo 1 > /sys/module/debug_core/parameters/kgdbreboot
It is also possible to change this setting using kdb / kgdb to
manipulate the variable directly.
Using KDB:
mm kgdbreboot 1
Using gdb:
set kgdbreboot=1

This fixes the following problems:
1) Typematic-repeat of 'enter' gives warning message
and leaks make/break if KDB exits. Repeats
look something like 0x1c 0x1c .... 0x9c
2) Use of 'keypad enter' gives warning message and
leaks the ENTER break/make code out if KDB exits.
KP ENTER repeats look someting like 0xe0 0x1c
0xe0 0x1c ... 0xe0 0x9c.
3) Lag on the order of seconds between "break" and "make" when
expecting the enter "break" code. Seen under virtualized
environments such as VMware ESX.
The existing special enter handler tries to glob the enter break code,
but this fails if the other (KP) enter was used, or if there was a key
repeat. It also fails if you mashed some keys along with enter, and
you ended up with a non-enter make or non-enter break code coming
after the enter make code. So first, we modify the handler to handle
these cases. But performing these actions on every enter is annoying
since now you can't hold ENTER down to scroll <more>d messages in
KDB. Since this special behaviour is only necessary to handle the
exiting KDB ('g' + ENTER) without leaking scancodes to the OS. This
cleanup needs to get executed anytime the kdb_main loop exits.
Tested on QEMU. Set a bp on atkbd.c to verify no scan code was leaked.

When switching from kdb mode to kgdb mode packets were getting lost
depending on the size of the fifo queue of the serial chip. When gdb
initially connects if it is in kdb mode it should entirely send any
character buffer over to the gdbstub when switching connections.
Previously kdb was zero'ing out the character buffer and this could
lead to gdb failing to connect at all, or a lengthy pause could occur
on the initial connect.

The kdb shell needs to enforce switching back to the original CPU that
took the exception before restoring normal kernel execution. Resuming
from a different CPU than what took the original exception will cause
problems with spin locks that are freed from the a different processor
than had taken the lock.
The special logic in dbg_cpu_switch() can go away entirely with
because the state of what cpus want to be masters or slaves will
remain unchanged between entry and exit of the debug_core exception
context.

For quite some time there have been problems with memory barriers and
various races with NMI on multi processor systems using the kernel
debugger. The algorithm for entering the kernel debug core and
resuming kernel execution was racy and had several known edge case
problems with attempting to debug something on a heavily loaded system
using breakpoints that are hit repeatedly and quickly.
The prior "locking" design entry worked as follows:
* The atomic counter kgdb_active was used with atomic exchange in
order to elect a master cpu out of all the cpus that may have
taken a debug exception.
* The master cpu increments all elements of passive_cpu_wait[].
* The master cpu issues the round up cpus message.
* Each "slave cpu" that enters the debug core increments its own
element in cpu_in_kgdb[].
* Each "slave cpu" spins on passive_cpu_wait[] until it becomes 0.
* The master cpu debugs the system.
The new scheme removes the two arrays of atomic counters and replaces
them with 2 single counters. One counter is used to count the number
of cpus waiting to become a master cpu (because one or more hit an
exception). The second counter is use to indicate how many cpus have
entered as slave cpus.
The new entry logic works as follows:
* One or more cpus enters via kgdb_handle_exception() and increments
the masters_in_kgdb. Each cpu attempts to get the spin lock called
dbg_master_lock.
* The master cpu sets kgdb_active to the current cpu.
* The master cpu takes the spinlock dbg_slave_lock.
* The master cpu asks to round up all the other cpus.
* Each slave cpu that is not already in kgdb_handle_exception()
will enter and increment slaves_in_kgdb. Each slave will now spin
try_locking on dbg_slave_lock.
* The master cpu waits for the sum of masters_in_kgdb and slaves_in_kgdb
to be equal to the sum of the online cpus.
* The master cpu debugs the system.
In the new design the kgdb_active can only be changed while holding
dbg_master_lock. Stress testing has not turned up any further
entry/exit races that existed in the prior locking design. The prior
locking design suffered from atomic variables not being truly atomic
(in the capacity as used by kgdb) along with memory barrier races.

The slave cpus do not have the hw breakpoints disabled upon entry to
the debug_core and as a result could cause unrecoverable recursive
faults on badly placed breakpoints, or get out of sync with the arch
specific hw breakpoint operations.
This patch addresses the problem by invoking kgdb_disable_hw_debug()
earlier in kgdb_enter_cpu for each cpu that enters the debug core.
The hw breakpoint dis/enable flow should be:
master_debug_cpu slave_debug_cpu

kgdb_disable_hw_debug --> uninstall pre-enabled hw_breakpoint
