      jump_label: move 'asm goto' support test to Kconfig · e9666d10
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      
Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".

The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:

  #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
  # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
  #endif

We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.

Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

      dynamic_debug: add jump label support · 9049fc74
      Jason Baron authored 
      Although dynamic debug is often only used for debug builds, sometimes
its enabled for production builds as well.  Minimize its impact by using
jump labels.  This reduces the text section by 7000+ bytes in the kernel
image below.  It does increase data, but this should only be referenced
when changing the direction of the branches, and hence usually not in
cache.

      module: add extra argument for parse_params() callback · ecc86170

This adds an extra argument onto parse_params() to be used
as a way to make the unused callback a bit more useful and
generic by allowing the caller to pass on a data structure
of its choice. An example use case is to allow us to easily
make module parameters for every module which we will do
next.

      dynamic_debug: init with early_initcall, not arch_initcall · 3ec5652a
      Jim Cromie authored 
      
1- Call dynamic_debug_init() from early_initcall, not arch_initcall.
2- Call dynamic_debug_init_debugfs() from fs_initcall, not module_init.

RFC: This works for me on a 64 bit desktop and a i586 SBC, but is
untested on other arches.  I presume there is or was a reason
original code used arch_initcall, maybe the constraints have changed.

This makes facility available as soon as possible.

2nd change has a downside when dynamic_debug.verbose=1; all the
vpr_info()s called in the proc-fs code are activated, causing
voluminous output from dmesg.  TBD: Im unsure of this explanation, but
the output is there.  This could be fixed by changing those callsites
to v2pr_info(if verbose > 1).

1st change is still not early enough to enable pr_debugs in
kernel/params, so parsing of boot-args isnt logged.  The reparse of
those args is however visible after params.dyndbg="+p" is processed.

      dynamic_debug: add modname arg to exec_query callchain · 8e59b5cf
      Jim Cromie authored 
      
Pass module name into ddebug_exec_queries(), ddebug_exec_query(), and
ddebug_parse_query() as separate parameter.  In ddebug_parse_query(),
the module name is added into the query struct before the query-string
is parsed.  This allows the query-string to be shorter:

instead of:
   $modname.dyndbg="module $modname +fp"
do this:
   $modname.dyndbg="+fp"

Omitting "module $modname" from the query string is actually required
for $modname.dyndbg rules; the set-only-once check added in a previous
patch will throw an error if its added again.  ddebug_query="..." has
no $modname associated with it, so the query string may include it.

This also fixes redundant "module $modname" otherwise needed to handle
multiple queries per string:

   $modname.dyndbg="func foo +fp; func bar +fp"

size of the _ddebug tables for builtins and the __verbose section that

We dont want errors while parsing ddebug_query to unload ddebug
tables, so set success after tables are loaded, and return 0 after
query parsing is done.

Simplify error handling code since its no longer used for success,
and change goto label to out_err to clarify this.

      dynamic_debug: combine parse_args callbacks together · 6ab676e9
      Jim Cromie authored 
      
Refactor ddebug_dyndbg_boot_param_cb and ddebug_dyndbg_module_param_cb
into a common helper function, and call it from both.  The handling of
foo.dyndbg is unneeded by the latter, but harmless.

The 2 callers differ only by pr_info and the return code they pass to
the helper for when an unknown param is handled.  I could slightly
reduce dmesg clutter by putting the vpr_info in the common helper,
after the return on_err, but that loses __func__ context, is overly
silent on module_cb unknown param errors, and the clutter is only when
dynamic_debug.verbose=1 anyway.

      dynamic_debug: make dynamic-debug work for module initialization · b48420c1
      Jim Cromie authored 
      This introduces a fake module param $module.dyndbg.  Its based upon
Thomas Renninger's $module.ddebug boot-time debugging patch from
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/15/397



The 'fake' module parameter is provided for all modules, whether or
not they need it.  It is not explicitly added to each module, but is
implemented in callbacks invoked from parse_args.

For builtin modules, dynamic_debug_init() now directly calls
parse_args(..., &ddebug_dyndbg_boot_params_cb), to process the params
undeclared in the modules, just after the ddebug tables are processed.

While its slightly weird to reprocess the boot params, parse_args() is
already called repeatedly by do_initcall_levels().  More importantly,
the dyndbg queries (given in ddebug_query or dyndbg params) cannot be
activated until after the ddebug tables are ready, and reusing
parse_args is cleaner than doing an ad-hoc parse.  This reparse would
break options like inc_verbosity, but they probably should be params,
like verbosity=3.

ddebug_dyndbg_boot_params_cb() handles both bare dyndbg (aka:
ddebug_query) and module-prefixed dyndbg params, and ignores all other
parameters.  For example, the following will enable pr_debug()s in 4
builtin modules, in the order given:

  dyndbg="module params +p; module aio +p" module.dyndbg=+p pci.dyndbg

For loadable modules, parse_args() in load_module() calls
ddebug_dyndbg_module_params_cb().  This handles bare dyndbg params as
passed from modprobe, and errors on other unknown params.

Note that modprobe reads /proc/cmdline, so "modprobe foo" grabs all
foo.params, strips the "foo.", and passes these to the kernel.
ddebug_dyndbg_module_params_cb() is again called for the unknown
params; it handles dyndbg, and errors on others.  The "doing" arg
added previously contains the module name.

For non CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG builds, the stub function accepts
and ignores $module.dyndbg params, other unknowns get -ENOENT.

If no param value is given (as in pci.dyndbg example above), "+p" is
assumed, which enables all pr_debug callsites in the module.

The dyndbg fake parameter is not shown in /sys/module/*/parameters,
thus it does not use any resources.  Changes to it are made via the
control file.

Also change pr_info in ddebug_exec_queries to vpr_info,
no need to see it all the time.

      dynamic_debug: process multiple debug-queries on a line · 85f7f6c0
      Jim Cromie authored 
      
Insert ddebug_exec_queries() in place of ddebug_exec_query().  It
splits the query string on [;\n], and calls ddebug_exec_query() on
each.  All queries are processed independent of errors, allowing a
query to fail, for example when a module is not installed.  Empty
lines and comments are skipped.  Errors are counted, and the last
error seen (negative) or the number of callsites found (0 or positive)
is returned.  Return code checks are altered accordingly.

With this, multiple queries can be given in ddebug_query, allowing
more selective enabling of callsites.  As a side effect, a set of
commands can be batched in:

	cat cmd-file > $DBGMT/dynamic_debug/control

We dont want a ddebug_query syntax error to kill the dynamic debug
facility, so dynamic_debug_init() zeros ddebug_exec_queries()'s return
code after logging the appropriate message, so that ddebug tables are
preserved and $DBGMT/dynamic_debug/control file is created.  This
would be appropriate even without accepting multiple queries.

This patch also alters ddebug_change() to return number of callsites
matched (which typically is the same as number of callsites changed).
ddebug_exec_query() also returns the number found, or a negative value
if theres a parse error on the query.

Splitting on [;\n] prevents their use in format-specs, but selecting
callsites on punctuation is brittle anyway, meaningful and selective
substrings are more typical.

Note: splitting queries on ';' before handling trailing #comments
means that a ';' also terminates a comment, and text after the ';' is
treated as another query.  This trailing query will almost certainly
result in a parse error and thus have no effect other than the error
message.  The double corner case with unexpected results is:

     ddebug_query="func foo +p # enable foo ; +p"
