Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86,hw_breakpoint,kgdb: kgdb to use hw_breakpoint API
In the 2.6.33 kernel, the hw_breakpoint API is now used for the
performance event counters. The hw_breakpoint_handler() now consumes
the hw breakpoints that were previously set by kgdb arch specific
code. In order for kgdb to work in conjunction with this core API
change, kgdb must use some of the low level functions of the
hw_breakpoint API to install, uninstall, and deal with hw breakpoint
reservations.
The kgdb core required a change to call kgdb_disable_hw_debug anytime
a slave cpu enters kgdb_wait() in order to keep all the hw breakpoints
in sync as well as to prevent hitting a hw breakpoint while kgdb is
active.
During the architecture specific initialization of kgdb, it will
pre-allocate 4 disabled (struct perf event **) structures. Kgdb will
use these to manage the capabilities for the 4 hw breakpoint
registers, per cpu. Right now the hw_breakpoint API does not have a
way to ask how many breakpoints are available, on each CPU so it is
possible that the install of a breakpoint might fail when kgdb
restores the system to the run state. The intent of this patch is to
first get the basic functionality of hw breakpoints working and leave
it to the person debugging the kernel to understand what hw
breakpoints are in use and what restrictions have been imposed as a
result. Breakpoint constraints will be dealt with in a future patch.
While atomic, the x86 specific kgdb code will call
arch_uninstall_hw_breakpoint() and arch_install_hw_breakpoint() to
manage the cpu specific hw breakpoints.
The net result of these changes allow kgdb to use the same pool of
hw_breakpoints that are used by the perf event API, but neither knows
about future reservations for the available hw breakpoint slots.
