[PATCH 01/16] dyndbg-docs: eschew file /full/path query in docs

[PATCH 01/16] dyndbg-docs: eschew file /full/path query in docs

[Jim Cromie]

Regarding:
commit 2b6783191da7 ("dynamic_debug: add trim_prefix() to provide source-root relative paths")
commit a73619a845d5 ("kbuild: use -fmacro-prefix-map to make __FILE__ a relative path")

2nd commit broke dynamic-debug's "file $fullpath" query form, but
nobody noticed because 1st commit had trimmed prefixes from
control-file output, so the click-copy-pasting of fullpaths into new
queries had ceased; that query form became unused.

Removing the function is cleanest, but it could be useful in
old-compiler corner cases, where __FILE__ still has /full/path,
and it safely does nothing otherwize.

So instead, quietly deprecate "file /full/path" query form, by
removing all /full/paths examples in the docs.  I skipped adding a
back-compat note.

[PATCH 09/16] dyndbg: accept 'file foo.c:func1' and 'file foo.c:10-100'

[Jim Cromie]

Accept these additional query forms:

   echo "file $filestr +_" > control

       path/to/file.c:100	# as from control, column 1
       path/to/file.c:1-100	# or any legal line-range
       path/to/file.c:func_A	# as from an editor/browser
       path/to/file.c:drm_\*	# wildcards still work
       path/to/file.c:*_foo	# lead wildcard too

1st 2 examples are treated as line-ranges, 3,4 are treated as func's

Doc these changes, and sprinkle in a few extra wild-card examples and
trailing # explanation texts.

coding style here is to use braces for both branches.

[PATCH 15/16] dyndbg: add user-flag, negating-flags, and filtering on flags

[Jim Cromie]

1. Add a user-flag [u] which works like the [pfmlt] flags, but has no
effect on callsite behavior; it allows incremental marking of
arbitrary sets of callsites.

2. Add [PFMLTU] flags, which negate their counterparts; P===!p etc.
And in ddebug_read_flags():
   current code does:	[pfmltu_] -> flags
   copy it to:		[PFMLTU_] -> mask

also disallow both of a pair: ie no 'pP', no true & false.

3. Add filtering ops into ddebug_change(), right after all the
callsite-property selections are complete.  These filter on the
callsite's current flagstate before applying modflags.

Why ?

The new user flag facilitates batching of changes.  By marking
individual callsites with 'u', a user can compose an arbitrary set of
changes, then activate them together by filtering on 'u':

  #> echo 'file foo.c +u; file bar.c +u' > control
  #> echo 'u+p' > control

The user flag isn't strictly needed, but with it you can avoid using
[fmlt] flags for marking, which would alter logging when enabled.

The negating flags allow filtering on either 0/1 for each flag.

+
+Filters can also contain the negating flags, like ``UF``, which select
+only callsites with ``u`` and ``f`` cleared.
+
+Flagsets cannot contain ``pP`` etc, a flag cannot be true and false.
+
+modflags containing upper-case flags is reserved/undefined for now.
+inverted-flags are currently ignored, usage gets trickier if given

+
+Notes::
+
+For ``print_hex_dump_debug()`` and ``print_hex_dump_bytes()``, only

 For display, the flags are preceded by ``=``
 (mnemonic: what the flags are currently equal to).

[PATCH 16/16] dyndbg: allow negating flag-chars in modflags

[Jim Cromie]

Extend flags modifications to allow [PFMLTU] negating flags.
This allows control-queries like:

  #> Q () { echo file inode.c $* > control } # to type less
  #> Q -P	# same as +p
  #> Q +U	# same as -u
  #> Q u-P	# same as u+p

This allows flags in a callsite to be simultaneously set and cleared,
while still starting with the current flagstate (with +- ops).
Generally, you chose -p or +p 1st, then set or clear flags
accordingly.

[PATCH 01/16] dyndbg-docs: eschew file /full/path query in docs

[Jim Cromie]

Regarding:
commit 2b6783191da7 ("dynamic_debug: add trim_prefix() to provide source-root relative paths")
commit a73619a845d5 ("kbuild: use -fmacro-prefix-map to make __FILE__ a relative path")

2nd commit broke dynamic-debug's "file $fullpath" query form, but
nobody noticed because 1st commit trimmed prefixes from control-file
output, so the click-copy-pasting of fullpaths into new queries had
ceased; that query form became unused.

Removing the function is cleanest, but it could be useful in
old-compiler corner cases, where __FILE__ still has /full/path,
and it safely does nothing otherwize.

So instead, quietly deprecate "file /full/path" query form, by
removing all /full/paths examples in the docs.  I skipped adding a
back-compat note.
