Subject: [PATCH 1/7] Add conditional oopsing with annotation
Add the ability to create an annotated oops report. This is useful for
displaying the output of assertion failures where direct display of the values
being checked is of greater value than the register dump.
This could technically be done simply by issuing one or more printk() calls
followed by a BUG() but in practice this has a serious disadvantage in that
people reporting a bug usually seem to take the "cut here" line literally and
discard everything prior to it when making a report - thus eliminating the most
important bit of information after the file/line number.
There are number of possible solutions to this. I've used the last in this
list:
(1) Emit the "cut here" line early, suppressing the one produced by the BUG()
handler. This would allow the annotation to be formed of multiple
printk() calls.
(2) Get rid of the "cut here" line entirely.
(3) Pass the annotation through to the exception handler. For practical
reasons, this limits the number of annotations to a single format string
and parameters. This means that a va_list has to be passed through and
thence to vprintk() - which should be okay. It also requires arch support
to retrieve the annotation data.
This facility can be made use of by one of:
ANNOTATED_BUG(const char *fmt, ...);
ANNOTATED_BUG_ON(bool condition, const char *fmt, ...);
This prints a report that looks like:
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at fs/dcache.c:863!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
...
if fmt is NULL and:
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at fs/dcache.c:863!
Dentry 0xffff880032675ed8{i=242,n=Documents} still in use (1) [unmount of nfs 12:01]
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
...
otherwise.
For this to work the arch code must provide two things:
#define arch_annotated_bug(struct annotated_bug *desc)
to perform the oops and:
#define is_arch_annotated_bug(struct pt_regs *regs)
for report_bug() to find whether or not an annotated bug occurred and, if so,
return a pointer to its description as passed to arch_annotated_bug().
If arch_annotated_bug() is not defined, then the code will fall back to doing
a printk() and a BUG().
