2015-02-17scripts/gdb: add automatic symbol reloading on module insertionJan Kiszka1-0/+39
This installs a silent breakpoint on the do_init_module function. The breakpoint handler will try to load symbols from the module files found during lx-symbols execution. This way, breakpoints can be set to module initialization functions, and there is no need to explicitly call lx-symbols after (re-)loading a module.

2015-02-17scripts/gdb: add lx-symbols commandJan Kiszka2-0/+128
This is probably the most useful helper when debugging kernel modules: lx-symbols first reloads vmlinux. Then it searches recursively for *.ko files in the specified paths and the current directory. Finally it walks the kernel's module list, issuing the necessary add-symbol-file command for each loaded module so that gdb knows which module symbol corresponds to which address. It also looks up variable sections (bss, data, rodata) and appends their address to the add-symbole-file command line. This allows to access global module variables just like any other variable.

2015-02-17scripts/gdb: add infrastructureJan Kiszka6-1/+51
This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb. The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when opening <objfile>. Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux. The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb commands and functions. To avoid polluting the source directory with compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory. Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we depend on gdb >= 7.2. This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.

2015-02-17eventfd: don't take the spinlock in eventfd_pollChris Mason1-6/+6
The spinlock in eventfd_poll is trying to protect the count of events so it can decide if it should return POLLIN, POLLERR, or POLLOUT. But, because of the way we drop the lock after calling poll_wait, and drop it again before returning, we have the same pile of races with the lock as we do with a single read of ctx->count(). This replaces the lock with a read barrier and single read. eventfd_write does a single bump of ctx->count, so this should not add new races with adding events. eventfd_read is similar, it will do a single decrement with the lock held, and so we're making the race with concurrent readers slightly larger. This spinlock is the top CPU user in kernel code during one of our workloads. Removing it gives us a ~2% boost.

2015-02-17vmcore: fix PT_NOTE n_namesz, n_descsz overflow issueWANG Chao1-4/+4
When updating PT_NOTE header size (ie. p_memsz), an overflow issue happens with the following bogus note entry: n_namesz = 0xFFFFFFFF n_descsz = 0x0 n_type = 0x0 This kind of note entry should be dropped during updating p_memsz. But because n_namesz is 32bit, after (n_namesz + 3) & (~3), it's overflow to 0x0, the note entry size looks sane and reserved. When userspace (eg. crash utility) is trying to access such bogus note, it could lead to an unexpected behavior (eg. crash utility segment fault because it's reading bogus address). The source of bogus note hasn't been identified yet. At least we could drop the bogus note so user space wouldn't be surprised.

2015-02-17kexec: add bit definitions for kimage entry flagsGeoff Levand1-4/+15
Define new kexec preprocessor macros IND_*_BIT that define the bit position of the kimage entry flags. Change the existing IND_* flag macros to be defined as bit shifts of the corresponding IND_*_BIT macros. Also wrap all C language code in kexec.h with #if !defined(__ASSEMBLY__) so assembly files can include kexec.h to get the IND_* and IND_*_BIT macros. Some CPU instruction sets have tests for bit position which are convenient in implementing routines that operate on the kimage entry list. The addition of these bit position macros in a common location will avoid duplicate definitions and the chance that changes to the IND_* flags will not be propagated to assembly files.

2015-02-17kexec: remove never used member destination in kimageBaoquan He2-6/+0
struct kimage has a member destination which is used to store the real destination address of each page when load segment from user space buffer to kernel. But we never retrieve the value stored in kimage->destination, so this member variable in kimage and its assignment operation are redundent code. I guess for_each_kimage_entry just does the work that kimage->destination is expected to do. So in this patch just make a cleanup to remove it. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

2015-02-17fs/ufs/super.c: fix potential race conditionFabian Frederick1-4/+0
Let locking subsystem decide on mutex management. As reported by Andrew Morton this patch fixes a bug: : lock_ufs() is assuming that on non-preempt uniprocessor, the calling : code will run atomically up to the matching unlock_ufs(). : : But that isn't true. The very first site I looked at (ufs_frag_map) : does sb_bread() under lock_ufs(). And sb_bread() will call schedule(), : very commonly. : : The ->mutex_owner stuff is a bit hacky but should work OK.
