kgdb: Make "kgdbcon" work properly with "kgdb_earlycon"

2020-11-05T10:51:20Z

[ Upstream commit b18b099e04f450cdc77bec72acefcde7042bd1f3 ] On my system the kernel processes the "kgdb_earlycon" parameter before the "kgdbcon" parameter. When we setup "kgdb_earlycon" we'll end up in kgdb_register_callbacks() and "kgdb_use_con" won't have been set yet so we'll never get around to starting "kgdbcon". Let's remedy this by detecting that the IO module was already registered when setting "kgdb_use_con" and registering the console then. As part of this, to avoid pre-declaring things, move the handling of the "kgdbcon" further down in the file.

2020-07-30T18:15:58Z

This converts all the existing DECLARE_TASKLET() (and ...DISABLED) macros with DECLARE_TASKLET_OLD() in preparation for refactoring the tasklet callback type. All existing DECLARE_TASKLET() users had a "0" data argument, it has been removed here as well. Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

kgdb: Avoid suspicious RCU usage warning

kgdb: Don't call the deinit under spinlock

When I combined kgdboc_earlycon with an inflight patch titled ("soc: qcom-geni-se: Add interconnect support to fix earlycon crash") [1] things went boom. Specifically I got a crash during the transition between kgdboc_earlycon and the main kgdboc that looked like this: Call trace: __schedule_bug+0x68/0x6c __schedule+0x75c/0x924 schedule+0x8c/0xbc schedule_timeout+0x9c/0xfc do_wait_for_common+0xd0/0x160 wait_for_completion_timeout+0x54/0x74 rpmh_write_batch+0x1fc/0x23c qcom_icc_bcm_voter_commit+0x1b4/0x388 qcom_icc_set+0x2c/0x3c apply_constraints+0x5c/0x98 icc_set_bw+0x204/0x3bc icc_put+0x30/0xf8 geni_remove_earlycon_icc_vote+0x6c/0x9c qcom_geni_serial_earlycon_exit+0x10/0x1c kgdboc_earlycon_deinit+0x38/0x58 kgdb_register_io_module+0x11c/0x194 configure_kgdboc+0x108/0x174 kgdboc_probe+0x38/0x60 platform_drv_probe+0x90/0xb0 really_probe+0x130/0x2fc ... The problem was that we were holding the "kgdb_registration_lock" while calling into code that didn't expect to be called in spinlock context. Let's slightly defer when we call the deinit code so that it's not done under spinlock. NOTE: this does mean that the "deinit" call of the old kgdb IO module is now made _after_ the init of the new IO module, but presumably that's OK.

kgdb: Add kgdb_has_hit_break function

2020-05-18T18:38:09Z

The break instruction in RISC-V does not have an immediate value field, so the kernel cannot identify the purpose of each trap exception through the opcode. This makes the existing identification schemes in other architecture unsuitable for the RISC-V kernel. To solve this problem, this patch adds kgdb_has_hit_break(), which can help RISC-V kernel identify the KGDB trap exception.

kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles

2020-05-18T16:49:27Z

We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel. Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late in the boot process. Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console. Let's enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early debugging. This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part of "struct console". It's assumed that if a boot console (with the flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write() function are polling functions. That means they work without interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if there's nothing to read. This should be a safe assumption since it appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support "kgdboc_earlycon". The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together. You should point them both to the same physical serial connection. At boot time, as the system transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers a tty), kgdb will switch over. One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the boot console) quite early in the system. Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone. You'd only be able to do this, of course, if the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console. - If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch over gdb in-flight if you're using it). When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty layer are not the same for the same port. For example when debugging on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly. Since digging up the boot console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter without specifying the name of the boot console. In this case we'll just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find. This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the existing "ekgdboc" parameter. While both provide a way to debug very early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different. Specifically "kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and there is a transition from one to the other. The "ekgdboc" parameter, on the other hand, replaces the "kgdboc" parameter. It runs the same logic as the "kgdboc" parameter but just relies on your TTY driver being present super early. The only known usage of the old "ekgdboc" parameter is documented as "ekgdboc=kbd earlyprintk=vga". It should be noted that "kbd" has special treatment allowing it to init early as a tty device.
