2008-10-13x86, traps: converge do_debug handlersAlexander van Heukelum1-4/+0
Make the x86_64-version and the i386-version of do_debug more similar. - introduce preempt_conditional_sti/cli to i386. The preempt-count is now elevated during the trap handler, like on x86_64. It does not run on a separate stack, however. - replace an open-coded "send_sigtrap" - copy some comments Signed-off-by: Alexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-09-23signals: demultiplexing SIGTRAP signalSrinivasa Ds1-1/+1
Currently a SIGTRAP can denote any one of below reasons. - Breakpoint hit - H/W debug register hit - Single step - Signal sent through kill() or rasie() Architectures like powerpc/parisc provides infrastructure to demultiplex SIGTRAP signal by passing down the information for receiving SIGTRAP through si_code of siginfot_t structure. Here is an attempt is generalise this infrastructure by extending it to x86 and x86_64 archs.

2008-07-22x86: consolidate header guardsVegard Nossum1-3/+3
This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/. The format: 1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved. 2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h. 3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single underscores. Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

2008-06-02x86: break mutual header inclusionVegard Nossum1-3/+5
This breaks up the mutual inclusion between headers ptrace.h and vm86.h by moving some small part of vm86.h which is needed by ptrace.h into processor-flags.h. We also try to move #include lines to the top. This has been compile tested on x86_32 and x86_64 defconfig, and run through 'make headers_check'.

2008-05-12x86, ptrace: PEBS supportMarkus Metzger1-2/+36
Polish the ds.h interface and add support for PEBS. Ds.c is meant to be the resource allocator for per-thread and per-cpu BTS and PEBS recording. It is used by ptrace/utrace to provide execution tracing of debugged tasks. It will be used by profilers (e.g. perfmon2). It may be used by kernel debuggers to provide a kernel execution trace. Changes in detail: - guard DS and ptrace by CONFIG macros - separate DS and BTS more clearly - simplify field accesses - add functions to manage PEBS buffers - add simple protection/allocation mechanism - added support for Atom Opens: - buffer overflow handling Currently, only circular buffers are supported. This is all we need for debugging. Profilers would want an overflow notification. This is planned to be added when perfmon2 is made to use the ds.h interface. - utrace intermediate layer Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-04-26x86_64 ia32 ptrace: convert to compat_arch_ptraceRoland McGrath1-0/+2
Now that there are no more special cases in sys32_ptrace, we can convert to using the generic compat_sys_ptrace entry point. The sys32_ptrace function gets simpler and becomes compat_arch_ptrace. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-04-17x86: cleanup - rename VM_MASK to X86_VM_MASKgorcunov@gmail.com1-2/+2
This patch renames VM_MASK to X86_VM_MASK (which in turn defined as alias to X86_EFLAGS_VM) to better distinguish from virtual memory flags.

2008-01-30x86: remove last user of get_segment_eipHarvey Harrison1-2/+4
is_prefetch was the last user of get_segment_eip and only on X86_32. This function returned the faulting instruction's address and set the upper segment limit. Instead, use the convert_ip_to_linear helper and rely on probe_kernel_address to do the segment checks which was already done everywhere the segment limit was being checked on X86_32.

2008-01-30x86: rename the struct pt_regs members for 32/64-bit consistencyH. Peter Anvin1-13/+67
We have a lot of code which differs only by the naming of specific members of structures that contain registers. In order to enable additional unifications, this patch drops the e- or r- size prefix from the register names in struct pt_regs, and drops the x- prefixes for segment registers on the 32-bit side. This patch also performs the equivalent renames in some additional places that might be candidates for unification in the future. Signed-off-by: H.
