[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 0/6] arm64: improve debuggability

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

My recent experience in debugging ARM64 tests on EFI was not as fun as I
expected it to be.

There were several reasons for that besides the questionable definition
of "fun":

1. ARM64 is not compiled with frame pointers and there is no stack
   unwinder when the stack is dumped.

2. Building an EFI drops the debug information.

3. The addresses that are printed on dump_stack() and the use of GDB
   are hard because taking code relocation into account is non trivial.

The patches help both ARM64 and EFI for this matter. The image address
is printed when EFI is used to allow the use of GDB. Symbols are emitted
into a separate debug file. The frame pointer is included and special
entry is added upon an exception to allow backtracing across
exceptions.

Merged. arm64 backtraces will be really nice to have!

[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 1/6] efi: keep efi debug information in a separate file

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Debugging tests that run on EFI is hard because the debug information is
not included in the EFI file. Dump it into a separeate .debug file to
allow the use of gdb or pretty_print_stacks script.

[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 2/6] lib/stack: print base addresses on relocation setups

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Making sense from dumped stacks when running EFI tests is very hard due
to the relocation. Fix it by adjusting the address back to the original
address.

Introduce CONFIG_RELOC, which would be set on arm64 and on EFI configs.

I dropped this change. powerpc doesn't define _text and _etext.
I'll leave it to the ppc people to decide if they want this and
want to add _text and _etext to get it.

Thanks for taking care of it. Sorry for not noticing. I am always
not inclined to change arch’s that I don’t use.

[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 4/6] arm64: stack: update trace stack on exception

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Using gdb for backtracing or dumping the stack following an exception is
not very helpful as the exact location of the exception is not saved.

Add an additional frame to save the location of the exception.

One delicate point is dealing with the pretty_print_stacks script. When
the stack is dumped, the script would not print the right address for
the exception address: for every return address it deducts "1" before
looking for the instruction location in the code (using addr2line). As a
somewhat hacky solution add "1" for the exception address when dumping
the stack.

[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 5/6] efi: print address of image

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Using gdb to debug tests that are run from efi is very hard without
knowing the base address in which the image was loaded. Print the
address so it can be used while debugging.

[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 6/6] arm64: dump stack on bad exception

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Upon a bad exception, the stack is rather useful for debugging, splat it
out.

The patch threading is busted. Everything in the thread, including the
cover letter, is in reply to this patch.

OK, I see the .gitignore hunk in patch 1, which is good, since it
certainly doesn't need its own patch. I'll just ignore this "patch".

My double mistake. So I see this patch was not supposed to be sent, but other
than that - you should have the series. Let me know if anything is wrong
(as otherwise I won’t send v4).

The series looks good. I plan to queue it, but was hoping to see some acks
from x86 and maybe ppc people first.

(I had to switch to this email address because I can't authenticate to
the mail service used for my @linux.dev address right now... Hopefully
that'll get resolved soon.)
