arm64: debug: unmask PSTATE.D earlier

2016-08-20T16:09:16+00:00

commit 2ce39ad15182604beb6c8fa8bed5e46b59fd1082 upstream.

Clearing PSTATE.D is one of the requirements for generating a debug
exception. The arm64 booting protocol requires that PSTATE.D is set,
since many of the debug registers (for example, the hw_breakpoint
registers) are UNKNOWN out of reset and could potentially generate
spurious, fatal debug exceptions in early boot code if PSTATE.D was
clear. Once the debug registers have been safely initialised, PSTATE.D
is cleared, however this is currently broken for two reasons:

(1) The boot CPU clears PSTATE.D in a postcore_initcall and secondary
    CPUs clear PSTATE.D in secondary_start_kernel. Since the initcall
    runs after SMP (and the scheduler) have been initialised, there is
    no guarantee that it is actually running on the boot CPU. In this
    case, the boot CPU is left with PSTATE.D set and is not capable of
    generating debug exceptions.

(2) In a preemptible kernel, we may explicitly schedule on the IRQ
    return path to EL1. If an IRQ occurs with PSTATE.D set in the idle
    thread, then we may schedule the kthread_init thread, run the
    postcore_initcall to clear PSTATE.D and then context switch back
    to the idle thread before returning from the IRQ. The exception
    return path will then restore PSTATE.D from the stack, and set it
    again.

This patch fixes the problem by moving the clearing of PSTATE.D earlier
to proc.S. This has the desirable effect of clearing it in one place for
all CPUs, long before we have to worry about the scheduler or any
exception handling. We ensure that the previous reset of MDSCR_EL1 has
completed before unmasking the exception, so that any spurious
exceptions resulting from UNKNOWN debug registers are not generated.

Without this patch applied, the kprobes selftests have been seen to fail
under KVM, where we end up attempting to step the OOL instruction buffer
with PSTATE.D set and therefore fail to complete the step.

This issue is similar with 62c6c61("arm64: replace read_lock to rcu lock in
call_break_hook"), but comes to single_step_handler.

This also solves kgdbts boot test silent hang issue on 4.4 -rt kernel.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
   merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
   upstreamed via the arm64 tree

 - CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
   where CPUs may not have exactly the same features.  The features
   reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
   delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)

 - Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
   space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT

 - Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64

 - New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
   with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
   feasible)

 - KASan support for arm64

 - EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
   KASan)

 - copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)

 - perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework

 - L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware

 - Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive
   entries may be able to use a single TLB entry)

 - Generic CONFIG_HZ now used on arm64

 - defconfig updates

call_break_hook is called in atomic context (hard irq disabled), so replace
the sleepable lock to rcu lock, replace relevant list operations to rcu
version and call synchronize_rcu() in unregister_break_hook().

And, replace write lock to spinlock in {un}register_break_hook.

debugfs: Pass bool pointer to debugfs_create_bool()

2015-10-04T10:36:07+00:00

Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument,
when all it needs is a boolean pointer.

It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *'
instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient.
Over that bool takes just a byte.

That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit
updating the API. regmap core was also using
debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were
updated for that to be bool as well.

This patch ensures that we mask out CPU_TASKS_FROZEN so that we don't
