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.

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.

The do_fork and sys_open tests have never worked properly on anything
other than a UP configuration with the kgdb test suite. 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()

[<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.

The warn will turn to a hard kernel crash shortly after that because
the pc will not get properly rewound to the right value after hitting
a breakpoint leading to a hard lockup.
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.

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

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.

The "kgdb_connected" variable of debug_core just indicates whether or
not kgdbts is connected to the debug_core. It does not completely
prevent a script from trying invoke kgdbts again and possibly crashing
the system (see Call Trace below).
The configured variable in kgtbts can be used instead of
kgdb_connected instead of kgdb_connected. The cleanup_kgdbts() can
also be removed because there is no possible way to build kgdbts as a
kernel module that you could unload with rmmod.

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.

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.

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 &
