Subject: [RFC PATCH v6 19/34] dyndbg: RFC - DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_TABLE
DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_TABLE is based on DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA.
Like its model, it creates/allocates a pair of structs: _ddebug &
_ddebug_site. It inits them distinctively, so is_dyndbg_header_pair()
macro can verify them.
Its purpose is to reserve a single pair of header records in the front
of the "__dyndbgs" & "__dyndbg_sites" sections. This has several parts;
- the pair of structs are defined in 2 .gnu.linkonce.dyndbg* sections
corresponding to the 2 dyndbg* sections populated by _METADATA
- vmlinux.lds.h places these 2 new sections into the dyndbg* sections,
right after the start___dyndbg*s, before existing contents.
- the pair has "__used __weak" to qualm compiler concerns.
explicit externs were problematic with initialization, static decls too.
With this, the header record is now really __dyndbg[0].
Notes:
DYNAMIC_DEBUG is a 'transparent' facility, in that pr_debug() users
get extra features without additional api. Because of this,
DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_TABLE is invoked by dynamic_debug.h on behalf of
all its (indirect) users, including printk.h.
IOW this has wide effects; it resulted in multiple redundant
definitions of header records. By hunch then trial and error, using
.gnu.linkonce. sections and "__used __weak " modifiers resolved the
problems. RFC.
In vmlinux-lds.h, I added 2 more KEEPs to place the .gnu.linkonce.*
headers at the front of their respective __dyndbg* sections. I moved
the __dyndbg lines into a new macro, which maybe should be done as a
separate commit, or in the earlier commit that touched it.
The headers are really just struct _ddebug*s, they are initialized
distinctively so that they're recogizable by code, using macro
is_dyndbg_header_pair(dbg, dbgsite).
DECLARE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_TABLE() initializes the header record pairs with
values which are "impossible" for pr_debug()s: (and therefor distinctive)
- lineno == 0
- site == iter->site
- modname == function not possible in proper linkage
- modname == format not possible in normal linkage
- filename = (void*) iter forced loopback
Next:
Get __dyndbg[0] from any *dp within __dyndbg[N]. Then with
__dyndbg[0].site, we can get __dyndbg_sites[N]. This is a little
slower than a direct pointer, but this is an unlikely debug path, so
this 'up-N-over-down-N' access is ok.
Eventually we can adapt the header (as a new struct/union) to keep its
pointer to the __dyndbg_sites[] section/block, while allowing us to
drop it from struct _ddebug, regaining memory parity with master. But
for now, we keep .site, and will soon use it to validate the
'up-N-over-down-N' computation.
For clarity, N is _ddebug._index. For both builtins & loadable
modules, it is init'd to remember the fixed offset from the beginning
of the section/block/memory-allocation (actual elf sections for *ko's,
and a __start/__stop delineated part of .data for builtins).
N/_index will be used solely to get to __debugs[0] and over to
__debug_sites[N]. It is distinct from a module's numdbgs, which is
used mainly when walking control, and is kept in struct _ddeug_table.
