Don Zickus 9c48f1c629 x86, nmi: Wire up NMI handlers to new routines
Just convert all the files that have an nmi handler to the new routines.
Most of it is straight forward conversion.  A couple of places needed some
tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler
and mce removes a call to notify_die.

[Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call

https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114

And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163]

The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines
and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal
to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb
which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).

Avi Kivity 4dc0da8696 perf: Add context field to perf_event
The perf_event overflow handler does not receive any caller-derived
argument, so many callers need to resort to looking up the perf_event
in their local data structure.  This is ugly and doesn't scale if a
single callback services many perf_events.

Fix by adding a context parameter to perf_event_create_kernel_counter()
(and derived hardware breakpoints APIs) and storing it in the perf_event.
The field can be accessed from the callback as event->overflow_handler_context.
All callers are updated.

Peter Zijlstra a8b0ca17b8 perf: Remove the nmi parameter from the swevent and overflow interface
The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.

For the various event classes:

  - hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
    the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
  - tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
  - software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
    perform wakeups, and hence need 0.

As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).

The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

With priorities in place and no one really understanding the difference between

This also simplifies default_do_nmi() a little bit.  Instead of calling the
die_notifier in both the if and else part, just pull it out and call it before
the if-statement.  This has the side benefit of avoiding a call to the ioport
to see if there is an external NMI sitting around until after the (more frequent)

The kgdb_remove_all_hw_break() function also needs to call the

after the debugger has detached.

The kgdb test suite exposes the behavior in the form of either a hang
or repetitive failure.  The kernel config that exposes the problem
contains all of the following:

CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS=y
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS_ON_BOOT=y

Jason Wessel fad99fac26 x86,kgdb: fix debugger hw breakpoint test regression in 2.6.35
HW breakpoints events stopped working correctly with kgdb as a result
of commit: 018cbffe68 (Merge commit
'v2.6.33' into perf/core), later commit:
ba773f7c51 (x86,kgdb: Fix hw breakpoint
regression) allowed breakpoints to propagate to the debugger core but
did not completely address the original regression in functionality
found in 2.6.35.

When the DR_STEP flag is set in dr6 along with any of the DR_TRAP
bits, the kgdb exception handler will enter once from the
hw_breakpoint API call back and again from the die notifier for
do_debug(), which causes the debugger to stop twice and also for the
kgdb regression tests to fail running under kvm with:

echo V2I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts

To address the problem, the kgdb overflow handler needs to implement
the same logic as the ptrace overflow handler call back with respect
to updating the virtual copy of dr6.  This will allow the kgdb
do_debug() die notifier to properly handle the exception and the
attached debugger, or kgdb test suite, will only receive a single
notification.

HW breakpoints events stopped working correctly with kgdb
as a result of commit: 018cbffe68
(Merge commit 'v2.6.33' into perf/core).

The regression occurred because the behavior changed for setting
NOTIFY_STOP as the return value to the die notifier if the breakpoint
was known to the HW breakpoint API.  Because kgdb is using the HW
breakpoint API to register HW breakpoints slots, it must also now
implement the overflow_handler call back else kgdb does not get to see
the events from the die notifier.

The kgdb_ll_trap function will be changed to be general purpose code
which can allow an easy way to implement the hw_breakpoint API
overflow call back.

Prior to smp_init() it is possible to simply write to the dr registers

Jason Wessel 0b4b3827db x86, kgdb, init: Add early and late debug states
The kernel debugger can operate well before mm_init(), but the x86
hardware breakpoint code which uses the perf api requires that the
kernel allocators are initialized.

This means the kernel debug core needs to provide an optional arch
specific call back to allow the initialization functions to run after
the kernel has been further initialized.

The kdb shell already had a similar restriction with an early
initialization and late initialization.  The kdb_init() was moved into
the debug core's version of the late init which is called
dbg_late_init();

Jason Wessel dcc7871128 kgdb: core changes to support kdb
These are the minimum changes to the kgdb core in order to enable an
API to connect a new front end (kdb) to the debug core.

This patch introduces the dbg_kdb_mode variable controls where the
user level I/O is routed.  It will be routed to the gdbstub (kgdb) or
to the kdb front end which is a simple shell available over the kgdboc
connection.

You can switch back and forth between kdb or the gdb stub mode of
operation dynamically.  From gdb stub mode you can blindly type
"$3#33", or from the kdb mode you can enter "kgdb" to switch to the
gdb stub.

The logic in the debug core depends on kdb to look for the typical gdb
connection sequences and return immediately with KGDB_PASS_EVENT if a
gdb serial command sequence is detected.  That should allow a
reasonably seamless transition between kdb -> gdb without leaving the
kernel exception state.  The two gdb serial queries that kdb is
responsible for detecting are the "?" and "qSupported" packets.

Jason Wessel 5352ae638e perf, hw_breakpoint, kgdb: Do not take mutex for kernel debugger
This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the
kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw
breakpoint reservations.

The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it
can start the kernel running from an invalid context.

A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get
created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint
reservations.

The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently
processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is
improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the
hardware breakpoint reservations.

Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it
will be a system wide reservation.

Jason Wessel cc0967490c x86, hw_breakpoints, kgdb: Fix 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.

Jason Wessel 8097551d9a kgdb,x86: do not set kgdb_single_step on x86
On an SMP system the kgdb_single_step flag has the possibility to
indefinitely hang the system in the case.  Consider the case where,
CPU 1 has the schedule lock and CPU 0 is set to single step, there is
no way for CPU 0 to run another task.

The easy way to observe the problem is to make 2 cpus busy, and run
the kgdb test suite.  You will see that it hangs the system very
quickly.

while [ 1 ] ; do find /proc > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done &
while [ 1 ] ; do find /proc > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done &
echo V1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts

The side effect of this patch is that there is the possibility
to miss a breakpoint in the case that a single step operation
was executed to step over a breakpoint in common code.

The trade off of the missed breakpoint is preferred to
hanging the kernel.  This can be fixed in the future by
using kprobes or another strategy to step over planted
breakpoints with out of line execution.

H. Peter Anvin 5ca6c0ca5d x86: use kernel_stack_pointer() in kgdb.c
The way to obtain a kernel-mode stack pointer from a struct
pt_regs in 32-bit mode is "subtle": the stack doesn't actually
contain the stack pointer, but rather the location where it would
have been marks the actual previous stack frame.  For clarity, use
kernel_stack_pointer() instead of coding this weirdness
explicitly.

Jason Wessel 33ab1979bc kgdb,i386: use address that SP register points to in the exception frame
The treatment of the SP register is different on x86_64 and i386.
This is a regression fix that lived outside the mainline kernel from
2.6.27 to now.  The regression was a result of the original merge
consolidation of the i386 and x86_64 archs to x86.

The incorrectly reported SP on i386 prevented stack tracebacks from
working correctly in gdb.

Jan Kiszka e85ceae910 kgdb, x86: Avoid invoking kgdb_nmicallback twice per NMI
Stress-testing KVM's latest NMI support with kgdbts inside an SMP guest,
I came across spurious unhandled NMIs while running the singlestep test.
Looking closer at the code path each NMI takes when KGDB is enabled, I
noticed that kgdb_nmicallback is called twice per event: One time via
DIE_NMI_IPI notification, the second time on DIE_NMI. Removing the first
invocation cures the unhandled NMIs here.

Jason Wessel 703a1edcd1 kgdb, x86_64: fix PS CS SS registers in gdb serial
On x86_64 the gdb serial register structure defines the PS (also known
as eflags), CS and SS registers as 4 bytes entities.

This patch splits the x86_64 regnames enum into a 32 and 64 version to
account for the 32 bit entities in the gdb serial packets.

Also the program counter is properly filled in for the sleeping
threads.

Jason Wessel d7161a6534 kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping
On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored
if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a
system call.

First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure
it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb,
any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the
exception.

On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was
inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb
core.  The arch specific stub should always set the
kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping.  This
allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace
happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call.

Jason Wessel 737a460f21 kgdb: fix several kgdb regressions
kgdb core fixes:
- Check to see that mm->mmap_cache is not null before calling
  flush_cache_range(), else on arch=ARM it will cause a fatal
  fault.

- Breakpoints should only be restored if they are in the BP_ACTIVE
  state.

- Fix a typo in comments to "kgdb_register_io_module"

x86 kgdb fixes:
- Fix the x86 arch handler such that on a kill or detach that the
  appropriate cleanup on the single stepping flags gets run.

- Add in the DIE_NMIWATCHDOG call for x86_64

- Touch the nmi watchdog before returning the system to normal
  operation after performing any kind of kgdb operation, else
  the possibility exists to trigger the watchdog.

Jason Wessel 64e9ee3095 kgdb: add x86 HW breakpoints
Add HW breakpoints into the arch specific portion of x86 kgdb.  In the
current x86 kernel.org kernels HW breakpoints are changed out in lazy
fashion because there is no infrastructure around changing them when
changing to a kernel task or entering the kernel mode via a system
call.  This lazy approach means that if a user process uses HW
breakpoints the kgdb will loose out.  This is an acceptable trade off
because the developer debugging the kernel is assumed to know what is
going on system wide and would be aware of this trade off.

There is a minor bug fix to the kgdb core so as to correctly call the
hw breakpoint functions with a valid value from the enum.

There is also a minor change to the x86_64 startup code when using
early HW breakpoints.  When the debugger is connected, the cpu startup
code must not zero out the HW breakpoint registers or you cannot hit
the breakpoints you are interested in, in the first place.

Jason Wessel d359752407 kgdb: fix NMI hangs
This patch fixes the hang regression with kgdb when the NMI interrupt
comes in while the master core is returning from an exception.

Adjust the NMI logic such that KGDB will not stop NMI exceptions from
occurring by in general returning NOTIFY_DONE.  It is not possible to
distinguish the debug NMI sync vs the normal NMI apic interrupt so
kgdb needs to catch the unknown NMI if it the debugger was previously
active on one of the cpus.
