2019-09-25scripts/gdb: handle split debugDouglas Anderson
Some systems (like Chrome OS) may use "split debug" for kernel modules. That means that the debug symbols are in a different file than the main elf file. Let's handle that by also searching for debug symbols that end in ".ko.debug". This is a packaging topic. You can take a normal elf file and split the debug out of it using objcopy. Try "man objcopy" and then take a look at the "--only-keep-debug" option. It'll give you a whole recipe for doing splitdebug. The suffix used for the debug symbols is arbitrary. If people have other another suffix besides ".ko.debug" then we could presumably support that too... For portage (which is the packaging system used by Chrome OS) split debug is supported by default (and the suffix is .ko.debug). ...and so in Chrome OS we always get the installed elf files stripped and then the symbols stashed away. At the moment we don't actually use the normal portage magic to do this for the kernel though since it affects our ability to get good stack dumps in the kernel. We instead pass a script as "strip" [1].

2019-07-16scripts/gdb: add helpers to find and list devicesLeonard Crestez
Add helper commands and functions for finding pointers to struct device by enumerating linux device bus/class infrastructure. This can be used to fetch subsystem and driver-specific structs: (gdb) p *$container_of($lx_device_find_by_class_name("net", "eth0"), "struct net_device", "dev") (gdb) p *$container_of($lx_device_find_by_bus_name("i2c", "0-004b"), "struct i2c_client", "dev") (gdb) p *(struct imx_port*)$lx_device_find_by_class_name("tty", "ttymxc1")->parent->driver_data Several generic "lx-device-list" functions are included to enumerate devices by bus and class: (gdb) lx-device-list-bus usb (gdb) lx-device-list-class (gdb) lx-device-list-tree &platform_bus Similar information is available in /sys but pointer values are deliberately hidden.

2019-07-11kbuild: replace KBUILD_SRCTREE with boolean building_out_of_srctreeMasahiro Yamada
Commit 25b146c5b8ce ("kbuild: allow Kbuild to start from any directory") deprecated KBUILD_SRCTREE. It is only used in tools/testing/selftest/ to distinguish out-of-tree build. Replace it with a new boolean flag, building_out_of_srctree. I also replaced the conditional ($(srctree),.) because the next commit will allow an absolute path to be used for $(srctree) even when building in the source tree.

2019-05-14scripts/gdb: add kernel config dumping commandStephen Boyd
lx-configdump <file> dumps the contents of the gzipped .config to a text file when the config is included in the kernel with CONFIG_IKCONFIG. By default, the file written is called config.txt, but it can be any user supplied filename as well. If the kernel config is in a module (configs.ko), then it can be loaded along with symbols for the module loaded with 'lx-symbols' and then this command will still work. Obviously if you have the whole vmlinux then this can also be achieved with scripts/extract-ikconfig, but this gdb script can be useful to confirm that the memory contents of the config in memory and the vmlinux contents on disk match what is expected.

2019-05-14scripts/gdb: find vmlinux where it was beforeStephen Boyd
Patch series "gdb script for kconfig and timer list". This is a handful of changes to the kernel's gdb scripts to do some more debugging with kgdb. The first patch allows the vmlinux to be reloaded from where it was specified on the command line so that this set of scripts can be used from anywhere. The second patch adds a script to dump the config.gz to a file on the host debugging machine. The third patch adds some rb tree utilities and the last patch uses those rb tree walking utilities to dump out the contents of /proc/timer_list from a system under debug. This patch (of 5): If I run 'gdb <path/to/vmlinux>' and there's the vmlinux-gdb.py file there I can properly see symbols and use the lx commands provided by the GDB scripts. But once I run 'lx-symbols' at the command prompt, gdb reloads the vmlinux symbols assuming that this script was run from the directory that has vmlinux at the root. That isn't always true, but we could just look and see what symbols were already loaded and use that instead. Let's do that so this can work by being invoked anywhere.

KBUILD_SRC was conventionally used for some different purposes: [1] To remember the source tree path [2] As a flag to check if sub-make is already done [3] As a flag to check if Kbuild runs out of tree For [1], we do not need to remember it because the top Makefile can compute it by $(realpath $(dir $(lastword $(MAKEFILE_LIST)))) [2] has been replaced with self-commenting 'sub_make_done'. For [3], we can distinguish in-tree/out-of-tree by comparing $(srctree) and '.' This commit converts [3] to prepare for the KBUILD_SRC removal.

2019-03-07scripts/gdb: replace flags (MS_xyz -> SB_xyz)Jackie Liu
Since commit 1751e8a6cb93 ("Rename superblock flags (MS_xyz -> SB_xyz)"), scripts/gdb should be updated to replace MS_xyz with SB_xyz. This change didn't directly affect the running operation of scripts/gdb until commit e262e32d6bde "vfs: Suppress MS_* flag defs within the kernel unless explicitly enabled" removed the definitions used by constants.py. Update constants.py.in to utilise the new internal flags, matching the implementation at fs/proc_namespace.c::show_sb_opts. Note to stable, e262e32d6bde landed in v5.0-rc1 (which was just released), so we'll want this picked back to 5.0 stable once this patch hits mainline (akpm just picked it up). Without this, debugging a kernel a kernel via GDB+QEMU is broken in the 5.0 release.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-09-01kbuild: use $(abspath ...) instead of $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)Masahiro Yamada
Kbuild conventionally uses $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd) idiom to get the absolute path of the directory because GNU Make 3.80, the minimal supported version at that time, did not support $(abspath ...) or $(realpath ...). Commit 37d69ee30808 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81") dropped the GNU Make 3.80 support, so we are now allowed to use those make-builtin helpers. This conversion will provide better portability without relying on the pwd command or its location /bin/pwd. I am intentionally using $(realpath ...) instead $(abspath ...) in some places. The difference between the two is $(realpath ...) returns an empty string if the given path does not exist. It is convenient in places where we need to error-out if the makefile fails to create an output directory.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: use explicit encoding=utf8 errors=replaceLeonard Crestez
Use errors=replace because it is never desirable for lx-dmesg to fail on string decoding errors, not even if the log buffer is corrupt and we show incorrect info. The kernel will sometimes print utf8, for example the copyright symbol from jffs2. In order to make this work specify 'utf8' everywhere because python2 otherwise defaults to 'ascii'. In theory the second errors='replace' is not be required because everything that can be decoded as utf8 should also be encodable back to utf8. But it's better to be extra safe here. It's worth noting that this is definitely not true for encoding='ascii', unknown characters are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER and they fail to encode back to ascii.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: add lx-fdtdump commandPeter Griffin
lx-fdtdump dumps the flattened device tree passed to the kernel from the bootloader to the filename specified as the command argument. If no argument is provided it defaults to fdtdump.dtb. This then allows further post processing on the machine running GDB. The fdt header is also also printed in the GDB console. For example: (gdb) lx-fdtdump fdt_magic: 0xD00DFEED fdt_totalsize: 0xC108 off_dt_struct: 0x38 off_dt_strings: 0x3804 off_mem_rsvmap: 0x28 version: 17 last_comp_version: 16 Dumped fdt to fdtdump.dtb >fdtdump fdtdump.dtb | less This command is useful as the bootloader can often re-write parts of the device tree, and this can sometimes cause the kernel to not boot.

2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree ParserKieran Bingham
Linux makes use of the Radix Tree data structure to store pointers indexed by integer values. This structure is utilised across many structures in the kernel including the IRQ descriptor tables, and several filesystems. This module provides a method to lookup values from a structure given its head node. Usage: The function lx_radix_tree_lookup, must be given a symbol of type struct radix_tree_root, and an index into that tree. The object returned is a generic integer value, and must be cast correctly to the type based on the storage in the data structure. For example, to print the irq descriptor in the sparse irq_desc_tree at index 18, try the following: (gdb) print (struct irq_desc)$lx_radix_tree_lookup(irq_desc_tree, 18) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/d2028c55e50cf95a9b7f8ca0d11885174b0cc709.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
