kdb: do a sanity check on the cpu in kdb_per_cpu()

2020-01-29T09:24:24Z

[ Upstream commit b586627e10f57ee3aa8f0cfab0d6f7dc4ae63760 ] The "whichcpu" comes from argv[3]. The cpu_online() macro looks up the cpu in a bitmap of online cpus, but if the value is too high then it could read beyond the end of the bitmap and possibly Oops.

kdb: make "mdr" command repeat

2018-05-30T05:50:51Z

[ Upstream commit 1e0ce03bf142454f38a5fc050bf4fd698d2d36d8 ] The "mdr" command should repeat (continue) when only Enter/Return is pressed, so make it do so.

module: use a structure to encapsulate layout.

2015-12-04T21:46:25Z

Makes it easier to handle init vs core cleanly, though the change is fairly invasive across random architectures. It simplifies the rbtree code immediately, however, while keeping the core data together in the same cachline (now iff the rbtree code is enabled).

kdb: Provide forward search at more prompt

2015-02-19T18:39:03Z

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. Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel

kdb: Fix a prompt management bug when using | grep

2015-02-19T18:39:03Z

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. Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel

kdb: Remove stack dump when entering kgdb due to NMI

2015-02-19T18:39:02Z

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. Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel

kdb: Fix off by one error in kdb_cpu()

2015-02-19T18:39:02Z

There was a follow on replacement patch against the prior "kgdb: Timeout if secondary CPUs ignore the roundup". See: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/7/442 This patch is the delta vs the patch that was committed upstream: * Fix an off-by-one error in kdb_cpu(). * Replace NR_CPUS with CONFIG_NR_CPUS to tell checkpatch that we really want a static limit. * Removed the "KGDB: " prefix from the pr_crit() in debug_core.c (kgdb-next contains a patch which introduced pr_fmt() to this file to the tag will now be applied automatically).

kdb: fix incorrect counts in KDB summary command output

2015-02-19T18:39:02Z

The output of KDB 'summary' command should report MemTotal, MemFree and Buffers output in kB. Current codes report in unit of pages. A define of K(x) as is defined in the code, but not used. This patch would apply the define to convert the values to kB. Please include me on Cc on replies. I do not subscribe to linux-kernel. Signed-off-by: Jay Lan Cc: Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel

Pull module and param fixes from Rusty Russell: "Surprising number of fixes this merge window :( The first two are minor fallout from the param rework which went in this merge window. The next three are a series which fixes a longstanding (but never previously reported and unlikely , so no CC stable) race between kallsyms and freeing the init section. Finally, a minor cleanup as our module refcount will now be -1 during unload" * tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux: module: make module_refcount() a signed integer. module: fix race in kallsyms resolution during module load success. module: remove mod arg from module_free, rename module_memfree(). module_arch_freeing_init(): new hook for archs before module->module_init freed. param: fix uninitialized read with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC param: initialize store function to NULL if not available.

module: make module_refcount() a signed integer.

James Bottomley points out that it will be -1 during unload. It's only used for diagnostics, so let's not hide that as it could be a clue as to what's gone wrong. Cc: Jason Wessel Acked-and-documention-added-by: James Bottomley Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell
