Ok that has my ack. Some of it is not pretty but debugger hooks that
have to run behind the OS while debugging it never are.

* [PATCH 07/11] tty/serial: Add kgdb_nmi driver
From: Anton Vorontsov @ 2012-09-13 15:03 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port
as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the
port is attached to KGDB).

Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able
to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33).  This is
because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus
is able to intercept the magic sequence.

Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling
communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully
detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw
console.

Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so
initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger
console:

	Type $3#33 to enter the debugger>

For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option,
when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key
press, so the kernel will be printing this:

	Hit <return> to enter the debugger>

This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes
nmi_console feature somewhat useless.

And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking
can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

* [PATCH 06/11] tty/serial/amba-pl011: Quiesce interrupts in poll_get_char
From: Anton Vorontsov @ 2012-09-13 15:03 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

We need to quiesce interrupts in the poll_get_char routine, otherwise,
if used with KGDB NMI debugger, we'll keep reentering the NMI.

Quiescing interrupts is pretty straightforward, except for TXIM
interrupt. The interrupt has "ready to transmit" meaning, so it's
almost always raised, and the only way to silence it is to mask it. But
that's OK, ops->start_tx will unmask it.

* [PATCH v7 0/11] KGDB/KDB FIQ (NMI) debugger
From: Anton Vorontsov @ 2012-09-13 15:01 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Andrew Morton, Russell King, Jason Wessel, Greg Kroah-Hartman,
	Alan Cox
  Cc: Arve Hjønnevåg, Colin Cross, Brian Swetland,
	John Stultz, Thomas Gleixner, linux-kernel, linux-arm-kernel,
	linaro-kernel, patches, kernel-team, kgdb-bugreport, linux-serial

Hi all,

Here comes the lucky v7:

- Per Alan Cox's suggestion added hangup method and removed a small
  leftover;
- Per Colin Cross' suggestion moved IRQ quiescing logic into
  poll_get_char routine. IIUC, Alan is less unhappy about it.  As a
  result, clear_irq() callback dropped.

These patches can be found in the following repo (based on tty-next):

	git://git.infradead.org/users/cbou/linux-nmi-kdb.git master

Old changelogs and rationale for these patches can be found here:

	v1-v5, rationale: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/10/2
	v6: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/10/2

Thanks,

* [PATCH 11/11] ARM: versatile: Make able to use UART ports for KGDB FIQ debugger

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

If enabled, kernel will able to enter KGDB upon serial line activity on
UART ports.

Note that even with this patch and CONFIG_KGDB_FIQ is enabled, you still
need to pass kgdb_fiq.enable=1 kernel command line option, otherwise UART
will behave in a normal way.

By default UART0 is used, but this can be changed via kgdb_fiq.uart_num
kernel command line option.

* [PATCH 09/11] ARM: Add KGDB/KDB FIQ debugger generic code

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

The FIQ debugger may be used to debug situations when the kernel stuck
in uninterruptable sections, e.g. the kernel infinitely loops or
deadlocked in an interrupt or with interrupts disabled.

By default KGDB FIQ is disabled in runtime, but can be enabled with
kgdb_fiq.enable=1 kernel command line option.

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

Just move the macros into header file as we would want to use them for
KGDB FIQ entry code.

The following macros were moved:

 - svc_entry
 - usr_entry
 - kuser_cmpxchg_check
 - vector_stub

To make kuser_cmpxchg_check actually work across different files, we
also have to make kuser_cmpxchg64_fixup global.

* [PATCH 05/11] tty/serial/amba-pl011: Implement poll_init callback
From: Anton Vorontsov @ 2012-09-13 15:03 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Andrew Morton, Russell King, Jason Wessel, Greg Kroah-Hartman,
	Alan Cox
  Cc: Arve Hjønnevåg, Colin Cross, Brian Swetland,
	John Stultz, Thomas Gleixner, linux-kernel, linux-arm-kernel,
	linaro-kernel, patches, kernel-team, kgdb-bugreport, linux-serial
In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

The callback is used to initialize the hardware, nothing else should be
done, i.e. we should not request interrupts (but we can and do unmask
some of them, as they might be useful for NMI entry).

As a side-effect, the patch also fixes a division by zero[1] when booting
with kgdboc options specified (e.g. kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200n8). The issue
happens because serial core calls set_termios callback, but the driver
doesn't know clock frequency, and thus cannot calculate proper baud rate
values.

* [PATCH 04/11] tty/serial/core: Introduce poll_init callback

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

It was noticed that polling drivers (like KGDB) are not able to use
serial ports if the ports were not previously initialized via console.
I.e.  when booting with console=ttyAMA0 kgdboc=ttyAMA0, everything works
fine, but with console=ttyFOO kgdboc=ttyAMA0, the kgdboc doesn't work.

This is because we don't initialize the hardware. Calling ->startup() is
not an option, because drivers request interrupts there, and drivers
fail to handle situations when tty isn't opened with interrupts enabled.

So, we have to implement a new callback (actually, tty_ops already have
a similar callback), which does everything needed to initialize just the
hardware.

This makes the stubs actually usable, since e.g. 'foo = kdb_register();'
leads to build errors in !KGDB_KDB case. Plus, with static inlines we
do type checking.

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

This command disables NMI-entry. If NMI source has been previously shared
with a serial console ("debug port"), this effectively releases the port
from KDB exclusive use, and makes the console available for normal use.

Of course, NMI can be reenabled, enable_nmi modparam is used for that:

	echo 1 > /sys/module/kdb/parameters/enable_nmi

In-Reply-To: <20120913150133.GA16238@lizard>

The new arch callback should manage NMIs that usually cause KGDB to
enter. That is, not all NMIs should be enabled/disabled, but only
those that issue kgdb_handle_exception().

We must mask it as serial-line interrupt can be used as an NMI, so
if the original KGDB-entry cause was say a breakpoint, then every
input to KDB console will cause KGDB to reenter, which we don't want.

If there is no way to clear them, yes, we obviously would want to
mask them before using the port for NMI debugger. Then we'd need
three callbacks:

- mask_all_irqs_but_rx() -- used before we want to start using the port
  for the NMI debugger;
- clear_rx_irq() -- (optional) clears rx IRQ for controllers that need
  it;
- restore_irqs() -- unmasks interrupts that were previously masked.

If we ever encounter a case when just clearing interrupts doesn't work,
we can surely implement the above scheme... It's just so far I don't
see any need to over-design this, but again, it's your call, I told my
opinion on this, but I'll do whatever you guys like more. :-)

I really really don't see how this is platform-specific. All we ask the
serial driver is to quiesce its interrupt. Whether we can handle
NMIs/IRQs recursively or not is not serial driver's worry, since its
IRQ handler is not going to fire anyway. The polling routines already
gave us the power to steal/inject the data, so now we're stealing the
interrupt too.

How we use the callback is indeed platform-specific, but so is the
whole KGDB, and that knowledge is hidden there.

For serial driver it's all pretty much clear: lower the interrupt, but
don't turn off rx detection.

Thanks!

Anton.

For a lot of devices and platforms you'd probably mask them instead ?

Recursively or not... again you get platform specific magic in places
we don't want.

In the driver poll method for most uarts is going to be at least buried
in what is usually arch specific uarts.

Yes, but if you'd like to merge your code, some might ask you: why?

You'd answer that you need to clear the interrupts, otherwise you'll
keep reentering NMI. The next that you might get is this: "this does
not belong to the getc callback, it's better to factor it out". :-) And
here comes clear_irq() (or alike, see below).

Yup, and that's exactly what we do: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/119

Your words made me think that clear_irq() might be indeed a somewhat
inappropriate name. We have to be even stricter on its definition and
behaviour.

So, returning to your question "What does clear_irqs() mean", I'd
answer that: the function must do whatever needed to lower the IRQ
line, plus the function must leave the port in the state that it's
still able to throw RX interrupts after the call.

So, the 100% proper name for this function would be this:

	quiesce_irqs_but_rx()

It's a bit long, but does exactly what the name states.

Thanks!
Anton.

Return the value returned by the failing function instead
of -1 (which does not convey the right error information).

Fixes the following smatch warning:

why not propagate 'ret' from uart_register_driver() instead of -1?

I'd point the finger at sticking to put_autosuspend() as that would give
HW enough time to actually unload all bytes from its FIFO through the
UART lines. can you check if forcing the autosuspend_delay to -1
triggers the issue again ? If it does, it's some help from autosuspend,
which would mean we still have the problem and needs to be properly
fixed.

I'll see what I can do. BTW, is that log with DEBUG_LL enabled ?

Anything 8250-based will clear the interrupt automatically, assuming
you read the status registers as well as the character register.

For exynos5, the only non-8250 based serial port I've come across, we
clear all interrupts in the rx poll function (see
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/exynos/+/ef427aafffb7153dde59745e440fd7ec41ea969d/arch/arm/mach-exynos/exynos_fiq_debugger.c).

What does clear_irqs() mean for a status or tx interrupt?  The tx
interrupt will generally re-assert as long as the tx fifo is empty,
which would require disabling it.  On 8250 ports, status interrupts
will re-assert until the corresponding status register is read.

Probably some controllers may lower the line by themselves, but not
all, and probably most of them need an explicit clear.

> receive buffer, or the polling rx function should clear the interrupt
> for you.

Yes, that's an option. But that way we add a new semantic for the
polling routines, and effecitvely we just merge the two callbacks.

Of course, if Alan is OK with this, I'm more than OK too. :-)

(But the polling routines would need to clear all interrupts, not
just rx/tx. For example, if the controller indicated some error, and
nobody clears it, then we'll start reentering infinitely.)

> If you use a clear_irqs callback, you can drop characters if

Only if we call clear_irqs() after reading the characters, but we do
it before. So if new characters are available, we will reenter NMI,
which is OK.

But if used incorrectly, it truly can cause dropping (or staling) of
characters, so I'd better add some comments about this.

Thanks!

Anton.
