ARC: stack unwinding: don't assume non-current task is sleeping

2020-12-29T12:44:47Z

[ Upstream commit e42404fa10fd11fe72d0a0e149a321d10e577715 ] To start stack unwinding (SP, PC and BLINK) are needed. When the explicit execution context (pt_regs etc) is not available, unwinder assumes the task is sleeping (in __switch_to()) and fetches SP and BLINK from kernel mode stack. But this assumption is not true, specially in a SMP system, when top runs on 1 core, there may be active running processes on all cores. So when unwinding non courrent tasks, ensure they are NOT running. And while at it, handle the self unwinding case explicitly. This came out of investigation of a customer reported hang with rcutorture+top Link: https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/linux/issues/31 Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

ARC: stack unwinding: avoid indefinite looping

2020-11-10T09:24:04Z

commit 328d2168ca524d501fc4b133d6be076142bd305c upstream. Currently stack unwinder is a while(1) loop which relies on the dwarf unwinder to signal termination, which in turn relies on dwarf info to do so. This in theory could cause an infinite loop if the dwarf info was somehow messed up or the register contents were etc. This fix thus detects the excessive looping and breaks the loop. | Mem: 26184K used, 1009136K free, 0K shrd, 0K buff, 14416K cached | CPU: 0.0% usr 72.8% sys 0.0% nic 27.1% idle 0.0% io 0.0% irq 0.0% sirq | Load average: 4.33 2.60 1.11 2/74 139 | PID PPID USER STAT VSZ %VSZ CPU %CPU COMMAND | 133 2 root SWN 0 0.0 3 22.9 [rcu_torture_rea] | 132 2 root SWN 0 0.0 0 22.0 [rcu_torture_rea] | 131 2 root SWN 0 0.0 3 21.5 [rcu_torture_rea] | 126 2 root RW 0 0.0 2 5.4 [rcu_torture_wri] | 129 2 root SWN 0 0.0 0 0.2 [rcu_torture_fak] | 137 2 root SW 0 0.0 0 0.2 [rcu_torture_cbf] | 127 2 root SWN 0 0.0 0 0.1 [rcu_torture_fak] | 138 115 root R 1464 0.1 2 0.1 top | 130 2 root SWN 0 0.0 0 0.1 [rcu_torture_fak] | 128 2 root SWN 0 0.0 0 0.1 [rcu_torture_fak] | 115 1 root S 1472 0.1 1 0.0 -/bin/sh | 104 1 root S 1464 0.1 0 0.0 inetd | 1 0 root S 1456 0.1 2 0.0 init | 78 1 root S 1456 0.1 0 0.0 syslogd -O /var/log/messages | 134 2 root SW 0 0.0 2 0.0 [rcu_torture_sta] | 10 2 root IW 0 0.0 1 0.0 [rcu_preempt] | 88 2 root IW 0 0.0 1 0.0 [kworker/1:1-eve] | 66 2 root IW 0 0.0 2 0.0 [kworker/2:2-eve] | 39 2 root IW 0 0.0 2 0.0 [kworker/2:1-eve] | unwinder looping too long, aborting !

arc: unwind: warn only once if DW2_UNWIND is disabled

2016-06-28T05:41:44Z

If CONFIG_ARC_DW2_UNWIND is disabled every time arc_unwind_core() gets called following message gets printed in debug console: ----------------->8--------------- CONFIG_ARC_DW2_UNWIND needs to be enabled ----------------->8--------------- That message makes sense if user indeed wants to see a backtrace or get nice function call-graphs in perf but what if user disabled unwinder for the purpose? Why pollute his debug console? So instead we'll warn user about possibly missing feature once and let him decide if that was what he or she really wanted.

ARC: Fix KSTK_ESP()

2015-02-27T05:18:23Z

/proc//maps currently don't annotate stack vma with "[stack]" This is because KSTK_ESP ie expected to return usermode SP of tsk while currently it returns the kernel mode SP of a sleeping tsk. While the fix is trivial, we also need to adjust the ARC kernel stack unwinder to not use KSTK_SP and friends any more. Cc: Reported-and-suggested-by: Alexey Brodkin Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: pt_regs update #3: Remove unused gutter at start of callee_regs

2013-06-22T13:53:22Z

This is trickier than prev two: * context switching code saves kernel mode callee regs in the format of struct callee_regs thus needs adjustment. This also reduces the height of topmost kernel stack frame by 1 word. * Since kernel stack unwinder is sensitive to height of topmost kernel stack frame, that needs a word of adjustment too. ptrace needs a bit of updating since pt_regs now diverges from user_regs_struct.
