* misc: kgdbts: Display progress of asynchronous testsDaniel Thompson2018-01-251-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kgdbts includes a couple of different "thrashing" style tests that may have long runtimes (especially on simulated platforms) and which run asynchronously. This is uncomfortable for interactive use and makes setting timeouts tricky for automatic use. Fix by providing a optional means to show progress during these tests. Selecting 100 is somewhat arbitrary but it matches the step used on the synchronous tests, is large enough to keep the call to printk from invalidating the testing and is human enough to "feel about right".

* drivers/misc: make kgdbts.c slightly more explicitly non-modularPaul Gortmaker2015-09-211-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is: lib/Kconfig.kgdb:config KGDB_TESTS lib/Kconfig.kgdb: bool "KGDB: internal test suite" ...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone. Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only. Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit. We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information is already contained at the top of the file in the comments. We can't remove the module.h include since we've kept the use of module_param in this file for now.

* clone: support passing tls argument via C rather than pt_regs magicJosh Triplett2015-06-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | clone has some of the quirkiest syscall handling in the kernel, with a pile of special cases, historical curiosities, and architecture-specific calling conventions. In particular, clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts a parameter "tls" that the C entry point completely ignores and some assembly entry points overwrite; instead, the low-level arch-specific code pulls the tls parameter out of the arch-specific register captured as part of pt_regs on entry to the kernel. That's a massive hack, and it makes the arch-specific code only work when called via the specific existing syscall entry points; because of this hack, any new clone-like system call would have to accept an identical tls argument in exactly the same arch-specific position, rather than providing a unified system call entry point across architectures. The first patch allows architectures to handle the tls argument via normal C parameter passing, if they opt in by selecting HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. The second patch makes 32-bit and 64-bit x86 opt into this. These two patches came out of the clone4 series, which isn't ready for this merge window, but these first two cleanup patches were entirely uncontroversial and have acks. I'd like to go ahead and submit these two so that other architectures can begin building on top of this and opting into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. However, I'm also happy to wait and send these through the next merge window (along with v3 of clone4) if anyone would prefer that. This patch (of 2): clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts an argument to set the thread-local storage area for the new thread. sys_clone declares an int argument tls_val in the appropriate point in the argument list (based on the various CLONE_BACKWARDS variants), but doesn't actually use or pass along that argument. Instead, sys_clone calls do_fork, which calls copy_process, which calls the arch-specific copy_thread, and copy_thread pulls the corresponding syscall argument out of the pt_regs captured at kernel entry (knowing what argument of clone that architecture passes tls in). Apart from being awful and inscrutable, that also only works because only one code path into copy_thread can pass the CLONE_SETTLS flag, and that code path comes from sys_clone with its architecture-specific argument-passing order. This prevents introducing a new version of the clone system call without propagating the same architecture-specific position of the tls argument. However, there's no reason to pull the argument out of pt_regs when sys_clone could just pass it down via C function call arguments. Introduce a new CONFIG_HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS for architectures to opt into, and a new copy_thread_tls that accepts the tls parameter as an additional unsigned long (syscall-argument-sized) argument. Change sys_clone's tls argument to an unsigned long (which does not change the ABI), and pass that down to copy_thread_tls. Architectures that don't opt into copy_thread_tls will continue to ignore the C argument to sys_clone in favor of the pt_regs captured at kernel entry, and thus will be unable to introduce new versions of the clone syscall.

* kgdb/kgdbts: support ppc64Tiejun Chen2013-03-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We can't look up the address of the entry point of the function simply via that function symbol for all architectures. For PPC64 ABI, actually there is a function descriptors structure. A function descriptor is a three doubleword data structure that contains the following values: * The first doubleword contains the address of the entry point of the function. * The second doubleword contains the TOC base address for the function. * The third doubleword contains the environment pointer for languages such as Pascal and PL/1. So we should call a wapperred dereference_function_descriptor() to get the address of the entry point of the function. Note this is also safe for other architecture after refer to "include/asm-generic/sections.h" since: dereference_function_descriptor(p) always is (p) if without arched definition.

* x86,kgdb: Fix DEBUG_RODATA limitation using text_poke()Jason Wessel2012-03-301-17/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all the way back to 2.6.36. The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly. The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function. The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break point removal routine will get called later on.

* kgdbts: (2 of 2) fix single step awareness to work correctly with SMPJason Wessel2012-03-301-11/+62

This is because the test suite did not fully implement the behavior of a real debugger. A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step request to return. Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb test suite on a 2 processor ARM system: while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& echo V1I1F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Very soon after starting the test the kernel will start warning with messages like: kgdbts: BP mismatch c002487c expected c0024878 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:317 check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4() [<c01f6520>] (check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4) [<c01f595c>] (validate_simple_test+0x3c/0xc4) [<c01f60d4>] (run_simple_test+0x1e8/0x274) The kernel will eventually recovers, but the test suite has completely failed to test anything useful. This patch implements behavior similar to a real debugger that does not rely on hardware single stepping by using only software planted breakpoints. In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger waits for the thread with the single step pending. Here is a high level description of the sequence of events. cont_instead_of_sstep = 0; 1) set breakpoint at do_fork 2) continue 3) Save the thread id where we stop to cont_thread_id 4) Remove breakpoint at do_fork 5) Reset the PC if needed depending on kernel exception type 6) soft single step 7) Check where we stopped if current thread != cont_thread_id { if (here for more than 2 times for the same thead) { ### must be a really busy system, start test again ### goto step 1 } goto step 5 } else { cont_instead_of_sstep = 0; } 8) clean up and run test again if needed 9) Clear out any threads that were waiting on a break point at the point in time the test is ended with get_cont_catch(). This happens sometimes because breakpoints are used in place of single stepping and some threads could have been in the debugger exception handling queue because breakpoints were hit concurrently on different CPUs. This also means we wait at least one second before unplumbing the debugger connection at the very end, so as respond to any debug threads waiting to be serviced.

This change is broken up into 2 pieces because archs that have hw single stepping (2.6.26 and up) need different changes than archs that do not have hw single stepping (3.0 and up). This change implements the correct behavior for an arch that supports hw single stepping. A minor defect was fixed where sys_open should be do_sys_open for the sys_open break point test. This solves the problem of running a 64 bit with a 32 bit user space. The sys_open() never gets called when using the 32 bit file system for the kgdb testsuite because the 32 bit binaries invoke the compat_sys_open() call leading to the test never completing. In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the intent to single step just this thread.

* kgdbts: Fix kernel oops with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATAJason Wessel2012-03-301-24/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On x86 the kgdb test suite will oops when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and you run the tests after boot time. This is regression has existed since 2.6.26 by commit: b33cb815 (kgdbts: Use HW breakpoints with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA). The test suite can use hw breakpoints for all the tests, but it has to execute the hardware breakpoint specific tests first in order to determine that the hw breakpoints actually work. Specifically the very first test causes an oops: # echo V1I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts kgdb: Registered I/O driver kgdbts. kgdbts:RUN plant and detach test Entering kdb (current=0xffff880017aa9320, pid 1078) on processor 0 due to Keyboard Entry [0]kdb> kgdbts: ERROR PUT: end of test buffer on 'plant_and_detach_test' line 1 expected OK got $E14#aa WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:730 run_simple_test+0x151/0x2c0() [...oops clipped...] This commit re-orders the running of the tests and puts the RODATA check into its own function so as to correctly avoid the kernel oops by detecting and using the hw breakpoints.

* kgdbts: Use HW breakpoints with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATAJason Wessel2008-05-281-4/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whenever CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set in the kernel config many kernel text sections become read-only, and the use of software breakpoints in the kgdb tests will cause the kernel to fail to complete the start up. Until such time that there is an official API for modifying read-only text sections hardware breakpoints must be used to run the do_fork or sys_open tests or the tests get skipped.

* kgdb: 1000 loops for the single step test in kgdbtsJason Wessel2008-05-051-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The single step test is not terribly costly and it should be able to pass at 1000 loops successfully in under 1 second. A non-kgdb timing regression was found using this test, but it did not occur frequently because by default the test was only executed a single time. This patch changes the default for the single step test to 1000 iterations and allows for individual configuration of the single step test to further exercise the kgdb subsystem when needed.

* kgdb: add kgdb internal test suiteJason Wessel2008-04-171-0/+1083
This patch adds regression tests for testing the kgdb core and arch specific implementation. The kgdb test suite is designed to be built into the kernel and not as a module because it uses a number of low level kernel and kgdb primitives which should not be exported externally. The kgdb test suite is designed as a KGDB I/O module which simulates the communications that a debugger would have with kgdb. The tests are broken up in to a line by line and referenced here as a "get" which is kgdb requesting input and "put" which is kgdb sending a response. The kgdb suite can be invoked from the kernel command line arguments system or executed dynamically at run time. The test suite uses the variable "kgdbts" to obtain the information about which tests to run and to configure the verbosity level. The following are the various characters you can use with the kgdbts= line: When using the "kgdbts=" you only choose one of the following core test types: A = Run all the core tests silently V1 = Run all the core tests with minimal output V2 = Run all the core tests in debug mode You can also specify optional tests: N## = Go to sleep with interrupts of for ## seconds to test the HW NMI watchdog F## = Break at do_fork for ## iterations S## = Break at sys_open for ## iterations NOTE: that the do_fork and sys_open tests are mutually exclusive. To invoke the kgdb test suite from boot you use a kernel start argument as follows: kgdbts=V1 kgdbwait Or if you wanted to perform the NMI test for 6 seconds and do_fork test for 100 forks, you could use: kgdbts=V1N6F100 kgdbwait The test suite can also be invoked at run time with: echo kgdbts=V1N6F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Or as another example: echo kgdbts=V2 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts When developing a new kgdb arch specific implementation or using these tests for the purpose of regression testing, several invocations are required. 1) Boot with the test suite enabled by using the kernel arguments "kgdbts=V1F100 kgdbwait" ## If kgdb arch specific implementation has NMI use "kgdbts=V1N6F100 2) After the system boot run the basic test. echo kgdbts=V1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts 3) Run the concurrency tests. It is best to use n+1 while loops where n is the number of cpus you have in your system. The example below uses only two loops. ## This tests break points on sys_open while [ 1 ] ; do find / > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done & while [ 1 ] ; do find / > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done & echo kgdbts=V1S10000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts fg # and hit control-c fg # and hit control-c ## This tests break points on do_fork while [ 1 ] ; do date > /dev/null ; done & while [ 1 ] ; do date > /dev/null ; done & echo kgdbts=V1F1000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts fg # and hit control-c Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
