2022-04-05module: Move kdb module related code out of main kdb codeAaron Tomlin1-1/+0
No functional change. This patch migrates the kdb 'lsmod' command support out of main kdb code into its own file under kernel/module. In addition to the above, a minor style warning i.e. missing a blank line after declarations, was resolved too. The new file was added to MAINTAINERS. Finally we remove linux/module.h as it is entirely redundant.

2022-03-24kdb: Fix the putarea helper functionDaniel Thompson1-1/+1
Currently kdb_putarea_size() uses copy_from_kernel_nofault() to write *to* arbitrary kernel memory. This is obviously wrong and means the memory modify ('mm') command is a serious risk to debugger stability: if we poke to a bad address we'll double-fault and lose our debug session. Fix this the (very) obvious way. Note that there are two Fixes: tags because the API was renamed and this patch will only trivially backport as far as the rename (and this is probably enough). Nevertheless Christoph's rename did not introduce this problem so I wanted to record that!

2021-11-03kdb: Adopt scheduler's task classificationDaniel Thompson1-93/+25
Currently kdb contains some open-coded routines to generate a summary character for each task. This code currently issues warnings, is almost certainly broken and won't make sense to any kernel dev who has ever used /proc to examine task states. Fix both the warning and the potential for confusion by adopting the scheduler's task classification. Whilst doing this we also simplify the filtering by using mask strings directly (which means we don't have to guess all the characters the scheduler might give us). Unfortunately we can't quite match the scheduler classification completely. We add four extra states: - for idle loops and i, m and s for sleeping system daemons (which means kthreads in one of the I, M and S states). These extra states are used to manage the filters for tools to make the output of ps and bta less noisy. Note: The Fixes below is the last point the original dubious code was moved; it was not introduced by that patch. However it gives us the last point to which this patch can be easily backported. Happily that should be enough to cover the introduction of CONFIG_WERROR!

2021-07-27kdb: Get rid of custom debug heap allocatorSumit Garg1-301/+28
Currently the only user for debug heap is kdbnearsym() which can be modified to rather use statically allocated buffer for symbol name as per it's current usage. So do that and hence remove custom debug heap allocator. Note that this change puts a restriction on kdbnearsym() callers to carefully use shared namebuf such that a caller should consume the symbol returned immediately prior to another call to fetch a different symbol. Also, this change uses standard KSYM_NAME_LEN macro for namebuf allocation instead of local variable: knt1_size which should avoid any conflicts caused by changes to KSYM_NAME_LEN macro value. This change has been tested using kgdbtest on arm64 which doesn't show any regressions.

2018-11-13kdb: print real address of pointers instead of hashed addressesChristophe Leroy1-6/+6
Since commit ad67b74d2469 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p"), all pointers printed with %p are printed with hashed addresses instead of real addresses in order to avoid leaking addresses in dmesg and syslog.

If CONFIG_KGDB_KDB is set and CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set the kernel will fail to build with the error: kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_next': kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:237: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms' kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_complete': kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:193: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms' The kdb_walk_kallsyms needs a #ifdef proper header to match the C implementation. This patch also fixes the compiler warnings in kdb_support.c when compiling without CONFIG_KALLSYMS set. The compiler warnings are a result of the kallsyms_lookup() macro not initializing the two of the pass by reference variables.

2010-05-21kdb: core for kgdb back end (1 of 2)Jason Wessel1-0/+927
This patch contains only the kdb core. Because the change set was large, it was split. The next patch in the series includes the instrumentation into the core kernel which are mainly helper functions for kdb. This work is directly derived from kdb v4.4 found at: ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb/download/v4.4/ The kdb internals have been re-organized to make them mostly platform independent and to connect everything to the debug core which is used by gdbstub (which has long been known as kgdb). The original version of kdb was 58,000 lines worth of changes to support x86. From that implementation only the kdb shell, and basic commands for memory access, runcontrol, lsmod, and dmesg where carried forward. This is a generic implementation which aims to cover all the current architectures using the kgdb core: ppc, arm, x86, mips, sparc, sh and blackfin. More archictectures can be added by implementing the architecture specific kgdb functions.
