dynamic-debug classmaps in master is BROKEN for DRM, due to a design
error in DECLARE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_ClASSMAP; its use in both drm-core and
drivers made multiple/redundant definitions of the classmap.  This led
to a regression enabling drm.debug at boot, on builtin drivers.

This patchset retires the macro, and replaces it with
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_ClASSMAP_DEFINE and DYNAMIC_DEBUG_ClASSMAP_USE.  1st is
invoked in drm-core, and defines the classmap, 2nd refers to that
exported definition, and is used in drivers and drm-helpers.

-v13 is a basically a -v12-resend, but:

1. Drops DRM's use of the new API; it can adopt them on its schedule.
   IOW it omits the 1-liner calls to DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE().
   and a few other patches.
   
2. rewords 2 macro-invokes to verify validations on bad API uses.
   changed to better explain what is being tested and prevented.
   these are inactive unless compiled with -DDD_MACRO_ARGCHECK

3. includes patch from Philip Hahn to fix pr_fmt with 2+ terms
   this was also in v12.

-v12 
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260326185413.1205870-1-jim.cromie@gmail.com/
had:

vmlinux.lds.h is refactored:
- BOUNDED_SECTION* macros are pulled into bounded_section.lds.h
- dynamic-debug sections are factored into dyndbg.lds.h,
  which reuses bounded_section.lds.h
- scripts/module.lds.S gets proper output sections for dyndbg
  this fixes lost sections seen in some setups
- based upon codetag.lds.h

DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE*() is refined:
- previous had static class-map decl and unique names
- now have extern'd <classname>-<usermod> names, matching 1-per-module model
- now with compile-time offset check
- _USE/_USE_ together allows more squashing

better modprobe-time classmap definition error detection:
- test descriptors for unknown class-names
- more complete class-map/user conflict detection

rebased onto -rc5
- applies cleanly to drm-misc-fixes
- passes a few more tests on DRM-CI

include patch from Philipp Hahn <phahn-oss@avm.de>

clean subsystem chunks
- dyndbg 1st
- drm - fixes for DRM-CI, adapt,use new API, un-BROKEN
- drm/accel - least mature, I have no HW

-v11 is here

When dyndbg classmaps get used (later in this series), the
__dyndbg_classes section (which has 28 byte structs on i386), causes
mis-alignment of the following __dyndbg section, resulting in a NULL
pointer deref in dynamic_debug_init().

Fix this by:

Adding ALIGN(8) to the BOUNDED_SECTION* macros.  This aligns all
sections using those macros, including the problem section above.
Almost all the other macro uses are already ALIGN(8), either
directly or by being below one.

Removing BOUNDED_SECTION* uses in ORC_UNWINDER sections.  These
explicitly have smaller alignments, and using the modified macros here
would override that aligment, which scripts/sorttable.c does not
tolerate.

Move __dyndbg section back above __dyndbg_classes, restoring its
orignal position.  This is cosmetic, given the alignment added to the
macros.

Move BOUNDED_SECTION_* macros to a new helper file:
include/asm-generic/bounded_sections.lds.h
and include it back into vmlinux.lds.h

This allows its reuse later to fix a future problem with modules
failing to keep dyndbg sections in some circumstances.

In an (unused) experimental variation of this series, I had trouble
with __dyndbg* sections getting lost in drm drivers.  While it didn't
happen in this series, it exposed a non-obvious weakness.  So fix it,
by following the model demonstrated in codetag.lds.h.

Introduce include/asm-generic/dyndbg.lds.h, with 2 macros:

DYNDBG_SECTIONS moves the 2 BOUNDED_SECTION_BY calls from DATA_DATA in
vmlinux.lds.h, which now includes the file and calls the new macro.

MOD_DYNDBG_SECTIONS also has the 2 BOUNDED_SECTION_BY calls, but wraps
them with output section syntax to keep them as known and separate ELF
sections in the module.ko.

dyndbg.lds.h includes (reuses) bounded-section.lds.h

scripts/module.lds.S: now calls MOD_DYNDBG_SECTIONS right before the
CODETAG macro (consistent with their placements in vmlinux.lds.h), and
also includes dyndbg.lds.h

This isolates vmlinux.lds.h from further __dyndbg section additions.

These macros are unused, no point in carrying them any more.

NB: these macros were just moved to bounded_sections.lds.h, from
vmlinux.lds.h, which is the known entity, and therefore more
meaningful in the 1-line summary, so thats what I used as the topic.

ddebug_change() is a big (~100 lines) function with a nested for loop.

The outer loop walks the per-module ddebug_tables list, and does
module stuff: it filters on a query's "module FOO*" and "class BAR",
failures here skip the entire inner loop.

The inner loop (60 lines) scans a module's descriptors.  It starts
with a long block of filters on function, line, format, and the
validated "BAR" class (or the legacy/_DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT).

These filters "continue" past pr_debugs that don't match the query
criteria, before it falls through the code below that counts matches,
then adjusts the flags and static-keys.  This is unnecessarily hard to
think about.

So move the per-descriptor filter-block into a boolean function:
ddebug_match_desc(desc), and change each "continue" to "return false".
This puts a clear interface in place, so any future changes are either
inside, outside, or across this interface.

also fix checkpatch complaints about spaces and braces.

Add the stub macro for !DYNAMIC_DEBUG builds, after moving the
original macro-defn down under the big ifdef.  Do it now so future
changes have a cleaner starting point.

When writing queries to >control, flags are parsed 1st, since they are
the only required field, and they require specific compositions.  So
if the flags draw an error (on those specifics), then keyword errors
aren't reported.  This can be mildly confusing/annoying, so explain it
instead.

commit 6ea3bf466ac6 ("dyndbg: test DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP, sysfs nodes")

A closer look at test_dynamic_debug.ko logging output reveals a macro
usage error:

lib/test_dynamic_debug.c:105 [test_dynamic_debug]do_cats =p "LOW msg\n" class:MID
lib/test_dynamic_debug.c:106 [test_dynamic_debug]do_cats =p "MID msg\n" class:HI
lib/test_dynamic_debug.c:107 [test_dynamic_debug]do_cats =_ "HI msg\n" class unknown, _id:13

107 says: HI is unknown, and 105,106 have a LOW/MID and MID/HI skew.

DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP() _base arg must equal the enum's 1st value,
in this case it was _base + 1.  This leaves HI class un-selectable.

NB: the macro could better validate its arguments.

When a dyndbg classname is unknown to a kernel module (as before
previous patch), the callsite is un-addressable via >control queries.

The control-file displays this condition as "class unknown,"
currently.  That spelling is sub-optimal/too-generic, so change it to
"class:_UNKNOWN_" to loudly announce the erroneous situation, and to
make it uniquely greppable.

struct ddebug_class_param keeps a ref to the state-storage of the
param; make both class-types use the same unsigned long storage type.

ISTM this is simpler and safer; it avoids an irrelevant difference,
and if 2 users somehow get class-type mixed up (or refer to the wrong
union member), at least they will both see the same value.

ARRAY_SIZE works here, since array decl is complete.

Disambiguate pr_fmt(fmt) arg, by changing it to _FMT_, to avoid naming
confusion with many later macros also using that argname.

currently, for verbose=3, these are logged (blank lines for clarity):

 dyndbg: query 0: "class DRM_UT_CORE +p" mod:*
 dyndbg: split into words: "class" "DRM_UT_CORE" "+p"

 dyndbg: op='+'
 dyndbg: flags=0x1
 dyndbg: *flagsp=0x1 *maskp=0xffffffff

 dyndbg: parsed: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
 dyndbg: no matches for query
 dyndbg: no-match: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
 dyndbg: processed 1 queries, with 0 matches, 0 errs

That is excessive, so this patch:
 - shrinks 3 lines of 2nd stanza to single line
 - drops 1st 2 lines of 3rd stanza
   3rd line is like 1st, with result, not procedure.
   2nd line is just status, retold in 4th, with more info.

New output:

 dyndbg: query 0: "class DRM_UT_CORE +p" mod:*
 dyndbg: split into words: "class" "DRM_UT_CORE" "+p"
 dyndbg: op='+' flags=0x1 *flagsp=0x1 *maskp=0xffffffff
 dyndbg: no-match: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
 dyndbg: processed 1 queries, with 0 matches, 0 errs

Also reduce verbose=3 messages in ddebug_add_module

When modprobing a module, dyndbg currently logs/says "add-module", and
then "skipping" if the module has no prdbgs.  Instead just check 1st
and return quietly.

Refactor callchain below param_set_dyndbg_classes(1) to allow mod-name
specific settings.  Split (1) into upper/lower fns, adding modname
param to lower, and passing NULL in from upper.  Below that, add the
same param to ddebug_apply_class_bitmap(), and pass it thru to
_ddebug_queries(), replacing NULL with the param.

This allows the callchain to update the classmap in just one module,
vs just all as currently done.  While the sysfs param is unlikely to
ever update just one module, the callchain will be used for modprobe
handling, which should update only that just-probed module.

In ddebug_apply_class_bitmap(), also check for actual changes to the
bits before announcing them, to declutter logs.

No functional change.

old_bits arg is currently a pointer to the input bits, but this could
allow inadvertent changes to the input by the fn.  Disallow this.
And constify new_bits while here.

Classmaps are stored in an elf section/array, but currently are
individually list-linked onto dyndbg's per-module ddebug_table for
operation. This is unnecessary.

Just like dyndbg's descriptors, classes are packed in compile order;
so even with many builtin modules employing multiple classmaps, each
modules' maps are packed contiguously, and can be treated as a
array-start-address & array-length.

So this drops the whole list building operation done in
ddebug_attach_module_classes(), and removes the list-head members.
The "select-by-modname" condition is reused to find the start,end of
the subrange.

NOTE: This "filter-by-modname" on classmaps should really be done in
ddebug_add_module(1); ie at least one step closer to ddebug_init(2),
which already splits up pr-debug descriptors into subranges by
modname, then calls (1) on each.  (2) knows nothing of classmaps
currently, and doesn't need to.  For now, just add comment.

dynamic-debug currently has 2 __sections (__dyndbg, __dyndb_classes),
struct _ddebug_info keeps track of them both, with 2 members each:
_vec and _vec#_len.

We need to loop over these sections, with index and record pointer,
making ref to both _vec and _vec_len.  This is already fiddly and
error-prone, and will get worse as we add a 3rd section.

Lets instead embed/abstract the fiddly-ness in the `for_subvec()`
macro, and avoid repeating it going forward.

This is a for-loop macro expander, so it syntactically expects to
precede either a single statement or a { block } of them, and the
usual typeof or do-while-0 tricks are unavailable to fix the
multiple-expansion warning.

The macro needs a lot from its caller: it needs 2 local vars, 1 of
which is a ref to a contained struct with named members.  To support
these requirements, add:

1. __ASSERT_IS_LVALUE(_X):
   ie: ((void)sizeof((void)0, &(x)))

2. __ASSERT_HAS_VEC_MEMBERS(_X, _Y):
   compile-time check that the _Y "vector" exists
   ie: _X->_Y and _X->num_##_Y are lvalues.

The for_subvec() macro then invokes these in the initialization of the
for-loop; they disappear at runtime.

recompose struct _ddebug_info, inserting proper sub-structs.

The struct _ddebug_info has 2 pairs of _vec, num_##_vec fields, for
descs and classes respectively.  for_subvec() makes walking these
vectors less cumbersome, now lets move those field pairs into their
own "vec" structs: _ddebug_descs & _ddebug_class_maps, and re-compose
struct _ddebug_info to contain them cleanly.  This also lets us get
rid of for_subvec()'s num_##_vec paste-up.

Also recompose struct ddebug_table to contain a _ddebug_info.  This
reinforces its use as a cursor into relevant data for a builtin
module, and access to the full _ddebug state for modules.

NOTES:

Fixup names:

Normalize all struct names to "struct _ddebug_*" eliminating the
minor/stupid variations created in classmaps-v1.

Modify __section names: __dyndbg to __dyndbg_descriptors, and
__dyndbg_classes to __dyndbg_class_maps.  This better matches the new
struct names, and makes room for forthcoming _ddebug_class_user(s)
structs and section.

Invariant: These vectors ref a contiguous subrange of __section memory
in builtin/DATA or in loadable modules via mod->dyndbg_info; with
guaranteed life-time for us.

struct module contains a _ddebug_info field and module/main.c sets it
up, so that gets adjusted rather obviously.

From: Jim Cromie @ 2026-04-08 20:01 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-kernel; +Cc: gregkh, jbaron, louis.chauvet, Jim Cromie

struct _ddebug_info already has most of dyndbg's info for a module;
push debug_table.mod_name down into it, finishing the encapsulation.

This allows refactoring several callchains, passing &_ddebug_info
instead of &ddebug_table, and hoisting the "&dt->info" deref up
instead of repeating it thru the callchans

ddebug_table contains a _ddebug_info member, so its users keep access
to mod_name, just now with "->info." added in.

In static ddebug_add_module(&di), reinforce the cursor-model by
dropping the modname arg, and setting di->mod_name at each caller.

The body of ddebug_attach_module_classes() is dominated by a
code-block that finds the contiguous subrange of classmaps matching on
modname, and saves it into the ddebug_table's info record.

Implement this block in a macro to accommodate different component
vectors in the "box" (as named in the for_subvec macro).  We will
reuse this macro shortly.

And hoist its invocation out of ddebug_attach_module_classes() up into
ddebug_add_module().  This moves the filtering step up closer to
dynamic_debug_init(), which already segments the builtin pr_debug
descriptors on their mod_name boundaries.

v10?- reordered params to match kdoc

v12- refactor/rename: s/dd_mark_vector_subrange/dd_set_module_subrange/

1. Renamed the macro from dd_mark_vector_subrange to
   dd_set_module_subrange to better reflect its purpose of narrowing a
   vector to a module-specific subrange.

2. Simplified the arguments by removing the redundant _dst, as the _di
   pointer already provides access to the target _ddebug_info struct.

3. Refactored for Clarity: Instead of overwriting the struct's start
   pointer while the for_subvec loop is using it to iterate, I
   introduced a temporary __start variable. This avoids the "subtle"
   side effect and makes the logic easier to follow.

4. Updated Documentation: Improved the comment block to explicitly
   state that the macro scans for the first match and counts
   contiguous elements.

Remove the DD_CLASS_TYPE_*_NAMES classmap types and code.

These 2 classmap types accept class names at the PARAM interface, for
example:

  echo +DRM_UT_CORE,-DRM_UT_KMS > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug_names

The code works, but its only used by test-dynamic-debug, and wasn't
asked for by anyone else, so reduce LOC & test-surface; simplify things.

Also rename enum class_map_type to enum ddebug_class_map_type.

Add a selftest script for dynamic-debug.  The config requires
CONFIG_TEST_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=m and CONFIG_TEST_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_SUBMOD=m,
which tacitly requires either CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE=y

ATM this has just basic_tests(), which modify pr_debug() flags in the
builtin params module.  This means they're available to manipulate and
observe the effects in "cat control".

This is backported from another feature branch; the support-fns (thx
Lukas) have unused features at the moment, they'll get used shortly.

The script enables simple virtme-ng testing:

   [jimc@gandalf b0-ftrace]$ vrun_t
   virtme-ng 1.32+115.g07b109d
   doing: vng --name v6.14-rc4-60-gd5f48427de0c \
	  --user root -v -p 4 -a dynamic_debug.verbose=3 V=1 \
	  -- ../tools/testing/selftests/dynamic_debug/dyndbg_selftest.sh
   virtme: waiting for virtiofsd to start
   ..

And add dynamic_debug to TARGETS, so `make run_tests` sees it properly
For the impatient, set TARGETS explicitly:

  [root@v6 selftests]# make TARGETS=dynamic_debug run_tests
  make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
  TAP version 13
  1..1
  # timeout set to 45
  # selftests: dynamic_debug: dyndbg_selftest.sh
  # # BASIC_TESTS    95.422122] dyndbg: query 0: 0"=_" mod:*
  ...

NOTES

check KCONFIG_CONFIG to avoid silly fails

Several tests are dependent upon config choices. Lets avoid failing
where that is noise.

The KCONFIG_CONFIG var exists to convey the config-file around.  If
the var names a file, read it and extract the relevant CONFIG items,
and use them to skip the dependent tests, thus avoiding the fails that
would follow, and the disruption to whatever CI is running these
selftests.

If the envar doesn't name a config-file, ".config" is assumed.

CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y:

basic-tests() and comma-terminator-tests() test for the presence of
the builtin pr_debugs in module/main.c, which I deemed stable and
therefore safe to count.  That said, the test fails if only
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE=y is set.  It could be rewritten to test
against test-dynamic-debug.ko, but that just trades one config
dependence for another.

CONFIG_TEST_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=m

As written, test_percent_splitting() modprobes test_dynamic_debug,
enables several classes, and counts them.  It could be re-written to
work for the builtin module also, but builtin test modules are not a
common or desirable build/config.

The Xe driver's XE_IOCTL_DBG macro calls drm_dbg() from inside an if
(expression).  This breaks when CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y because
the invoked macro has a do-while-0 wrapper, and is not an expression.

   if (cond && (drm_dbg("expr-form"),1)) {
      ... do some more stuff
   }

Fix for this usage by changing __dynamic_func_call_cls{,_no_desc}
macros into expressions, by replacing the do-while-0s with a ({ })
wrapper.  In the common usage, the trailing ';' converts the
expression into a statement.

   drm_dbg("statement form");

commit aad0214f3026 ("dyndbg: add DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP macro")

DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP() has a design error; its usage fails a
basic K&R rule: "define once, refer many times".

When CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, it is used across DRM core &
drivers; each invocation allocates/inits the classmap understood by
that module.  They *all* must match for the DRM modules to respond
consistently when drm.debug categories are enabled.  This is at least
a maintenance hassle.

Worse, its the root-cause of the CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=Y
regression; its use in both core & drivers obfuscates the 2 roles,
muddling the design, yielding an incomplete initialization when
modprobing drivers:

1st drm.ko loads, and dyndbg initializes its drm.debug callsites, then
a drm-driver loads, but too late for the drm.debug enablement.

And that led to:
commit bb2ff6c27bc9 ("drm: Disable dynamic debug as broken")

So retire it, replace with 2 macros:
  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE - invoked once from core - drm.ko
  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE*   - from all drm drivers and helpers.
  NB: name-space de-noise

DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE: this reworks DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP,
basically by dropping the static qualifier on the classmap, and
exporting it instead.

DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE: then refers to the exported var by name:
  used from drivers, helper-mods
  lets us drop the repetitive "classname" declarations
  fixes 2nd-defn problem
  creates a ddebug_class_user record in new __dyndbg_class_users section
  new section is scanned "differently"

DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP is preserved temporarily, to decouple DRM
adaptation work and avoid compile-errs before its done.

The DEFINE,USE distinction, and the separate classmap-use record,
allows dyndbg to initialize the driver's & helper's drm.debug
callsites separately after each is modprobed.

Basically, the classmap initial scan is repeated for classmap-users.

dyndbg's existing __dyndbg_classes[] section does:

. catalogs the module's classmaps
. tells dyndbg about them, allowing >control
. DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE creates section records.
. we rename it to: __dyndbg_class_maps[]

this patch adds __dyndbg_class_users[] section:

. catalogs users of classmap definitions from elsewhere
. authorizes dyndbg to >control user's class'd prdbgs
. DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE() creates section records.

Now ddebug_add_module(etal) can handle classmap-uses similar to (and
after) classmaps; when a dependent module is loaded, if it has
classmap-uses (to a classmap-def in another module), that module's
kernel params are scanned to find if it has a kparam that is wired to
dyndbg's param-ops, and whose classmap is the one being ref'd.

To support this, theres a few data/header changes:

new struct ddebug_class_user
  contains: user-module-name, &classmap-defn
  it records drm-driver's use of a classmap in the section, allowing lookup

struct ddebug_info gets 2 new fields for the new sections:
  class_users, num_class_users.
  set by dynamic_debug_init() for builtins.
  or by kernel/module/main:load_info() for loadable modules.

vmlinux.lds.h: Add a new BOUNDED_SECTION for __dyndbg_class_users.
this creates start,stop C symbol-names for the section.

TLDR ?

dynamic_debug.c: 2 changes from ddebug_add_module() & ddebug_change():

ddebug_add_module():

ddebug_attach_module_classes() is reworked/renamed/split into
debug_apply_class_maps(), ddebug_apply_class_users(), which both call
ddebug_apply_params().

ddebug_apply_params(new fn):

It scans module's/builtin kernel-params, calls ddebug_match_apply_kparam
for each to find any params/sysfs-nodes which may be wired to a classmap.

ddebug_match_apply_kparam(new fn):

1st, it tests the kernel-param.ops is dyndbg's; this guarantees that
the attached arg is a struct ddebug_class_param, which has a ref to
the param's state, and to the classmap defining the param's handling.

2nd, it requires that the classmap ref'd by the kparam is the one
we've been called for; modules can use many separate classmaps (as
test_dynamic_debug does).

Then apply the "parent" kparam's setting to the dependent module,
using ddebug_apply_class_bitmap().

ddebug_change(and callees) also gets adjustments:

ddebug_find_valid_class(): This does a search over the module's
classmaps, looking for the class FOO echo'd to >control.  So now it
searches over __dyndbg_class_users[] after __dyndbg_classes[].

ddebug_class_name(): return class-names for defined OR used classes.

test_dynamic_debug.c, test_dynamic_debug_submod.c:

This demonstrates the 2 types of classmaps & sysfs-params, following
the 4-part recipe:

0. define an enum for the classmap's class_ids
   drm.debug gives us DRM_UT_<*> (aka <T>)
   multiple classmaps in a module(s) must share 0-62 classid space.

1. DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE(classmap_name, .. "<T>")
   names the classes, maps them to consecutive class-ids.
   convention here is stringified ENUM_SYMBOLS
   these become API/ABI if 2 is done.

2. DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM* (classmap_name)
   adds a controlling kparam to the class

3. DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE(classmap_name)
   for subsystem/group/drivers to use extern created by 1.

Move all the enum declarations together, to better explain how they
share the 0..62 class-id space available to a module (non-overlapping
subranges).

reorg macros 2,3 by name.  This gives a tabular format, making it easy
to see the pattern of repetition, and the points of change.

And extend the test to replicate the 2-module (parent & dependent)
scenario which caused the CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y regression
seen in drm & drivers.

The _submod.c is a 2-line file: #define _SUBMOD, #include parent.

This gives identical complements of prdbgs in parent & _submod, and
thus identical print behavior when all of: >control, >params, and
parent->_submod propagation are working correctly.

It also puts all the parent/_submod declarations together in the same
source; the new ifdef _SUBMOD block invokes DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE
for the 2 test-interfaces.  I think this is clearer.

These 2 modules are both tristate, allowing 3 super/sub combos: Y/Y,
Y/M, M/M (not N/Y, since this is disallowed by dependence).

Y/Y, Y/M testing once exposed a missing __align(8) in the _METADATA
macro, which M/M didn't see, probably because the module-loader memory
placement constrained it from misalignment.

-v?
replace di with &dt->info, since di becomes stale
fix dd_mark_vector_subrange macro param ordering to match kdoc
s/base/offset/ in _ddebug_class_user, to reduce later churn

-v12 - squash in _USE_ and refinements.

A: dyndbg: add DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_(dd_class_name, offset)

Allow a module to use 2 classmaps together that would otherwise have a
class_id range conflict.

Suppose a drm-driver does:

  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE(drm_debug_classes);
  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE(drm_accel_xfer_debug);

If (for some reason) drm-accel cannot define their constants to avoid
DRM's drm_debug_category 0..10 reservations, we would have a conflict
with reserved-ids.

In this case a driver needing to use both would _USE_ one of them with
an offset to avoid the conflict.  This will handle most forseeable
cases; perhaps a 3-X-3 of classmap-defns X classmap-users would get
too awkward and fiddly.

B: dyndbg: refine DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_ macro

The struct _ddebug_class_user _varname construct is needlessly
permissive; it has a static qualifier, and a unique name.  Together,
these allow a module to have 2 or more _USE(foo)s, which is contrary
to its purpose, and therefore potentially confusing.

So drop the unique name, and the static qualifier, and replace it with
an extern pre-declaration.  Construct the name by pasting together the
_var (which is the name of the exported ddebug_class_map), and
__KBUILD_MODNAME (which is the user module name).  This allows only a
single USE() reference to the exported record, which is all that is
required.

+ * dyndbg classmaps is modelled closely upon drm.debug:

+ *  1. run-time control via sysfs node (api/abi)
+ *  2. each bit 0..N controls a single "category"
+ *  3. a pr_debug can have only 1 category, not several.
+ *  4. "kind" is a compile-time constant: 0..N or BIT() thereof
+ *  5. macro impls - give compile-time resolution or fail.
+ *
+ * dyndbg classmaps design axioms/constraints:
+ *
+ *  . optimizing compilers use 1-5 above, so preserve them.
+ *  . classmaps.class_id *is* the category.
+ *  . classmap definers/users are modules.
+ *  . every user wants 0..N
+ *  . 0..N exposes as ABI
+ *  . no 1 use-case wants N > 32, 16 is more usable
+ *  . N <= 64 in *all* cases
+ *  . modules/subsystems make category/classmap decisions
+ *  . ie an enum: DRM has DRM_UT_CORE..DRM_UT_DRMRES
+ *  . some categories are exposed to user: ABI
+ *  . making modules change their numbering is bogus, avoid if possible
+ *
+ * We can solve for all these at once:
+ *  A: map class-names to a .class_id range at compile-time
+ *  B: allow only "class NAME" changes to class'd callsites at run-time
+ *  C: users/modules must manage 0..62 hardcoded .class_id range limit.
+ *  D: existing pr_debugs get CLASS_DFLT=63
+ *
+ * By mapping class-names at >control to class-ids underneath, and
+ * responding only to class-names DEFINEd or USEd by the module, we
+ * can private-ize the class-id, and adjust class'd pr_debugs only by
+ * their names.
+ *
+ * This give us:
+ *  E: class_ids without classnames are unreachable
+ *  F: user modules opt-in by DEFINEing a classmap and/or USEing another
+ *
+ * Multi-classmap modules/groups are supported, if the classmaps share
+ * the class_id space [0..62] without overlap/conflict.
+ *
+ * NOTE: Due to the integer class_id, this api cannot disallow these:
+ * __pr_debug_cls(0, "fake CORE msg");  works only if a classmap maps 0.

From: Jim Cromie @ 2026-04-08 20:02 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: linux-kernel; +Cc: gregkh, jbaron, louis.chauvet, Jim Cromie

If a module _DEFINEs 2 or more classmaps, it must devise them to share
the per-module 0..62 class-id space; ie their respective base,+length
reservations cannot overlap.

To detect conflicts at modprobe, add ddebug_class_range_overlap(),
call it from ddebug_add_module(), and WARN and return -EINVAL when
they're detected.

This insures that class_id -> classname lookup has just 1 answer, so
the 1st-found search in find-class-name works properly.

test_dynamic_debug.c:

If built with -DFORCE_CLASSID_CONFLICT, the test-modules invoke 2
conflicting DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE() declarations, into parent
and the _submod.  These conflict with one of the good ones in the
parent (D2_CORE..etc), causing the modprobe(s) to WARN and fail.

Reviewed-by: Louis Chauvet <louis.chauvet@bootlin.com>

v9 - fix WARN() by adding new 1st arg 1.

Add __DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_CHECK to implement the following
arg-checks at compile-time:

	0 <= _base < 63
	class_names is not empty
	class_names[0] is a string
	(class_names.length + _base) < 63
	dd-map-type is known value

These compile-time checks will prevent several simple misuses, and
will issue obvious errors if violated.

4 such examples are added to test_dynamic_debug_submod.ko, and will
fail compilation if -DDD_MACRO_ARGCHECK is added to cflags.  This
wouldn't be a useful CONFIG_ item, since it breaks the build.

-v13

reword 2 failing tests (active only when -DDD_MACRO_ARGCHECK is
passed to cc) to better identify what error is being tested against

-v12

check map-type at compile-time

make base+len(classnames) check more explicit

dyndbg-test: add more tests of compile-time CHECKs

add 3 tests of static-asserts added to 2 macros:
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_{DEFINE,USE_}

_DEFINE():
1- validates maptype,
2- validate classmap.length + base-offset < 63
_USE_():
3- validate user-offset < 63

As before, these tests fail when activated:

make KCPPFLAGS="-DDD_MACRO_ARGCHECK" lib/test_dynamic_debug_submod.o

NOTE: _USE_() cannot test classmap.length, since its a property of
the referent, not the macro itself.

dyndbg-test: verify DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_() compile-time CHECK

Add another failing use-case, this time to verify that _USE properly
rejects an offset > 62.  This is an incomplete test; the proper test
is: classes.length + base + offset < 63, but the macro cannot test
classes.length at compile-time.

echo 1000 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/do_prints

This allows its use as a scriptable load generator, to generate
dynamic-prefix-emits for flag combinations vs undecorated messages.
This will make it easy to assess the cost of the prefixing.

Reading the ./do_prints node also prints messages (once).

move the DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM macro from test-dynamic-debug.c into
the header, and refine it, by distinguishing the 2 use cases:

1.DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM_REF
    for DRM, to pass in extern __drm_debug by name.
    dyndbg keeps bits in it, so drm can still use it as before

2.DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM
    new user (test_dynamic_debug) doesn't need to share state,
    decls a static long unsigned int to store the bitvec.

__DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM
   bottom layer - allocate,init a ddebug-class-param, module-param-cb.

Modify ddebug_sync_classbits() argtype deref inside the fn, to give
access to all kp members.

Also add stub macros, clean up and improve comments in test-code, and
add MODULE_DESCRIPTIONs.

Treat comma as a token terminator, just like a space.  This allows a
user to avoid quoting hassles when spaces are otherwise needed:

 :#> modprobe drm dyndbg=class,DRM_UT_CORE,+p\;class,DRM_UT_KMS,+p

or as a boot arg:

 drm.dyndbg=class,DRM_UT_CORE,+p  # todo: support multi-query here

Given the many ways a boot-line +args can be assembled and then passed
in/down/around shell based tools, this may allow side-stepping all
sorts of quoting hassles thru those layers.

existing query format:

 modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg="class D2_CORE +p"

new format:

 modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=class,D2_CORE,+p

ALSO

selftests-dyndbg: add comma_terminator_tests

New fn validates parsing and effect of queries using combinations of
commas and spaces to delimit the tokens.

It manipulates pr-debugs in builtin module/params, so might have deps
I havent foreseen on odd configurations.

  To: linux-kernel; +Cc: gregkh, jbaron, louis.chauvet, Jim Cromie

Since commit
85f7f6c0edb8 ("dynamic_debug: process multiple debug-queries on a line")

Multi-query commands have been allowed:

  modprobe drm dyndbg="class DRM_UT_CORE +p; class DRM_UT_KMS +p"
  modprobe drm dyndbg=<<EOX
     class DRM_UT_CORE +p
     class DRM_UT_KMS +p
  EOX

More recently, the need for quoting was avoided by treating a comma
like a space/token-terminator:

  modprobe drm dyndbg=class,DRM_UT_CORE,+p\;class,DRM_UT_KMS,+p

That works, but it needs the escaped semicolon, which is a shell
special-char (one of the bash control operators), so it is brittle
when passed in/down/around scripts.  In particular, it fails when
passed to vng (virtme-ng).

So this patch adds '%' to the existing ';' and '\n' multi-command
separators, which is more shell-friendly, so you can more fully avoid
quoting and escaping hassles.

NOTE: it does break format matching on '%' patterns:

bash-5.2# ddcmd 'format "find-me: %foo" +p'
[  203.900581] dyndbg: read 26 bytes from userspace
[  203.900883] dyndbg: query 0: "format "find-me: " mod:*
[  203.901118] dyndbg: unclosed quote: find-me:
[  203.901355] dyndbg: tokenize failed
[  203.901529] dyndbg: query 1: "foo" +p" mod:*
[  203.901957] dyndbg: split into words: "foo"" "+p"
[  203.902243] dyndbg: op='+' flags=0x1 maskp=0xffffffff
[  203.902458] dyndbg: expecting pairs of match-spec <value>
[  203.902703] dyndbg: query parse failed
[  203.902871] dyndbg: processed 2 queries, with 0 matches, 2 errs
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

The '%' splits the input into 2 queries, and both fail.  Given the
limited utility of matching against the working parts of a format
string "foo: %d bar %s", nothing is actually lost here.

selftests-dyndbg: test_percent_splitting

This does basic testing of classmaps using '%' separated
multi-queries.  It modprobes test_dynamic_debug with several classes
enabled, and counts to verify that the expected sites show the
enablement in the control file.

This new test-fn runs 3 module/submodule modprobe scenarios, variously
using both the generic dyndbg=<queries> modprobe arg, and the
test-module's classmap-params to manipulate the test-mod*'s pr_debugs.
In all cases, the current flag-settings are counted and tested vs
expectations.

The 3rd scenario recapitulates the DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y failure.

1. 2 modprobes (super then sub), with separate dyndbg=class-settings
   check module specific flag settings

2. modprobe submod, supermod is auto-loaded
   set supermod class-params
   check expected enablements in super & submod

3. modprobe super, with param=setting (like drm.debug=0x1ef)
   modprobe submod
   validate submod's class'd pr_debugs get properly enabled

The test uses multi-queries, with both commas and percents (to avoid
spaces and quoting).  This is the main reason the test wasn't earlier
in the patchset, closer to the classmap patches its validating.

With some tedium, the tests could be refactored to split out early
tests which avoid multi-cmds, and test only the class-params.

classmap-v1 code protected class'd pr_debugs from unintended
changes by unclassed/_DFLT queries:

  # - to declutter examples:
  alias ddcmd='echo $* > /proc/dynamic_debug/control'

  # IOW, this should NOT alter drm.debug settings
  ddcmd -p

  # Instead, you must name the class to change it.
  # Protective but tedious
  ddcmd class DRM_UT_CORE +p

  # Or do it the (old school) subsystem way
  # This is ABI !!
  echo 1 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug

Since the debug sysfs-node is ABI, if dyndbg is going to implement it,
it must also honor its settings; it must at least protect against
accidental changes to its classes from legacy queries.

The protection allows all previously conceived queries to work the way
they always have; ie select the same set of pr_debugs, despite the
inclusion of whole new classes of pr_debugs.

But that choice has 2 downsides:

1. "name the class to change it" makes a tedious long-winded
interface, needing many commands to set DRM_UT_* one at a time.

2. It makes the class keyword special in some sense; the other
keywords skip only on query mismatch, otherwise the code falls thru to
adjust the pr-debug site.

 Jason Baron	didn't like v1 on point 2.
 Louis Chauvet	didn't like recent rev on point 1 tedium.

But that said: /sys/ is ABI, so this must be reliable:

  #> echo 0x1f > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug

It 'just works' without dyndbg underneath; we must deliver that same
stability.  Convenience is secondary.

The new resolution:

If ABI is the blocking issue, then no ABI means no blocking issue.
IOW, if the classmap has no presence under /sys/*, ie no PARAM, there
is no ABI to guard, and no reason to enforce a tedious interface.

In the future, if DRM wants to alter this protection, that is
practical, but I think default-on is the correct mode.

So atm classes without a PARAM are unprotected at >control, allowing
admins their shortcuts.  I think this could satisfy all viewpoints.

That said, theres also a possibility of wildcard classes:

   #> ddcmd class '*' +p

Currently, the query-class is exact-matched against each module's
classmaps.names.  This gives precise behavior, a good basis.

But class wildcards are possible, they just did'nt appear useful for
DRM, whose classmap names are a flat DRM_UT_* namespace.

IOW, theres no useful selectivity there:

   #> ddcmd class "DRM_*" +p		# these enable every DRM_* class
   #> ddcmd class "DRM_UT_*" +p

   #> ddcmd class "DRM_UT_V*" +p	# finally select just 1: DRM_UT_VBL
   #> ddcmd class "DRM_UT_D*" +p	# but this gets 3

   #> ddcmd class "D*V*" +p		# here be dragons

But there is debatable utility in the feature.

   #> ddcmd class __DEFAULT__ -p	# what about this ?
   #> ddcmd -p				# thats what this does. automatically

Anyway, this patch does:

1. adds link field from _ddebug_class_map to the .controlling_param

2. sets it in ddebug_match_apply_kparam(), during modprobe/init,
   when options like drm.debug=VAL are handled.

3. ddebug_class_has_param() now checks .controlling_param

4. ddebug_class_wants_protection() macro renames 3.
   this frames it as a separable policy decision

5. ddebug_match_desc() gets the most attention:

a. move classmap consideration to the bottom
   this insures all other constraints act 1st.
   allows simpler 'final' decisions.

b. split class choices cleanly on query:
   class FOO vs none, and class'd vs _DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT site.

c. calls 4 when applying a class-less query to a class'd pr_debug
   here we need a new fn to find the classmap with this .class_id

d. calls new ddebug_find_classmap_by_class_id().
   when class-less query looks at a class'd pr_debug.
   finds classmap, which can then decide, currently by PARAM existence.

NOTES:

protection is only against class-less queries, explicit "class FOO"
adjustments are allowed (that is the mechanism).

The drm.debug sysfs-node heavily under-specifies the class'd pr_debugs
it controls; none of the +mfls prefixing flags have any effect, and
each callsite remains individually controllable. drm.debug just
toggles the +p flag for all the modules' class'd pr_debugs.

Dynamic debug classmaps allow modules to _DEFINE and/or _USE multiple
classmaps, but this requires coordination amongst the classmaps.

Previously, class validation done by DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE at
compile-time, and ddebug_class_range_overlap() at modprobe-time, was
incomplete, and DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_ had no validation.  This
could allow broken classmaps, making them harder to use well.

This commit improves classmap and descriptor validation:

- Mirror the compile-time limits of _DEFINE by adding a static_assert
  to validate the _offset value passed to DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_.

- Add run-time overlap checks for _USEd classmaps in ddebug_add_module()
  to prevent collisions between private maps and imported APIs.

- Scan module descriptors at load time to print a single warning per
  missing class_id, rather than waiting for a user query to trip over it.

- Downgrade the global WARN_ONCE in ddebug_match_desc() to a
  pr_warn_ratelimited, since orphaned class IDs are now tracked and
  warned about early at module load.

-v12 - squash several enhancments together

drop run-time USE check, now done at compile-time

s/WARN_ONCE/pr_err/, dont need stack trace for this, and do want
multiple error reports, so dont quit on 1st err.

Now that DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_() has an offset parameter, it is
possible for a user to specify an illegal value - one that shifts the
bit-range past the 64 bit max.  The macro detects an offset > 63, but
this isn't enough; the legal max is:

  map.length - 1 + map.base + user.offset < 64

Testing class-map vs class-user overlap is nonsense if the class-user
range extends past the implemented limit.  So check that 1st, before
looking for map/user overlap.

To validate this, add ifdef DD_RUNTIME_CLASS_CHECK code to
test_dynamic_debug_submod.ko.  When its enabled, it creates a bad
class-user record via:

  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE_(map_level_num, 55);

bash-5.3# modprobe test_dynamic_debug_submod
[   19.359818] dyndbg:  23 debug prints in module test_dynamic_debug
[   19.366239] dyndbg: module test_dynamic_debug_submod: base:16 + classes.len:8 + cli.offset:55 must be < 63
[   19.366612] dyndbg: dyndbg multi-classmap conflict in test_dynamic_debug_submod
[   19.366945] dyndbg: dyndbg: failed to add module test_dynamic_debug_submod: -22

Finally, replace the misleading "Failed to allocate memory" WARN in
the module notifier with a pr_err that reports the specific failure
code without the stack-trace.

Describe the 3 API macros providing dynamic_debug's classmaps

DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE - create & export a classmap
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE    - refer to exported map
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM  - bind control param to the classmap
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM_REF + use module's storage - __drm_debug

NB: The _DEFINE & _USE model makes the user dependent on the definer,
just like EXPORT_SYMBOL(__drm_debug) already does.

+.. _dyndbg-classmaps:
+
+Dynamic Debug Classmaps
+=======================
+
+The "class" keyword selects prdbgs based on author supplied,
+domain-oriented names.  This complements the nested-scope keywords:
+module, file, function, line.
+
+The main difference from the others: classes must be named to be
+changed.  This protects them from unintended overwrite::
+
+  # IOW this cannot undo any drm.debug settings
+  :#> ddcmd -p
+
+This protection is needed; /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug is ABI.
+drm.debug is authoritative when dyndbg is not used, dyndbg-under-DRM
+is an implementation detail, and must not behave erratically, just
+because another admin fed >control something unrelated.
+
+So each class must be enabled individually (no wildcards)::
+
+  :#> ddcmd class DRM_UT_CORE +p
+  :#> ddcmd class DRM_UT_KMS +p
+  # or more selectively
+  :#> ddcmd class DRM_UT_CORE module drm +p
+
+That makes direct >control wordy and annoying, but it is a secondary
+interface; it is not intended to replace the ABI, just slide in
+underneath and reimplement the guaranteed behavior.  So DRM would keep
+using the convenient way, and be able to trust it::
+
+  :#> echo 0x1ff > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
+
+That said, since the sysfs/kparam is the ABI, if the author omits the
+CLASSMAP_PARAM, theres no ABI to guard, and he probably wants a less
+pedantic >control interface.  In this case, protection is dropped.
+
+Dynamic Debug Classmap API
+==========================
+
+DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE(clname,type,_base,classnames) - this maps
+classnames (a list of strings) onto class-ids consecutively, starting
+at _base.
+
+DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE(clname) & _USE_(clname,_base) - modules
+call this to refer to the var _DEFINEd elsewhere (and exported).
+
+DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM(clname) - creates the sysfs/kparam,
+maps/exposes bits 0..N as class-names.
+
+Classmaps are opt-in: modules invoke _DEFINE or _USE to authorize
+dyndbg to update those named classes.  "class FOO" queries are
+validated against the classes defined or used by the module, this
+finds the classid to alter; classes are not directly selectable by
+their classid.
+
+Classnames are global in scope, so subsystems (module-groups) should
+prepend a subsystem name; unqualified names like "CORE" are discouraged.
+
+NB: It is an inherent API limitation (due to class_id's int type) that
+the following are possible:
+
+  // these errors should be caught in review
+  __pr_debug_cls(0, "fake DRM_UT_CORE msg");  // this works
+  __pr_debug_cls(62, "un-known classid msg"); // this compiles, does nothing
+
+There are 2 types of classmaps:
+
+* DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_BITS: classes are independent, like drm.debug
+* DD_CLASS_TYPE_LEVEL_NUM: classes are relative, ordered (V3 > V2)
+
+DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_PARAM - modelled after module_param_cb, it
+refers to a DEFINEd classmap, and associates it to the param's
+data-store.  This state is then applied to DEFINEr and USEr modules
+when they're modprobed.
+
+The PARAM interface also enforces the DD_CLASS_TYPE_LEVEL_NUM relation
+amongst the contained classnames; all classes are independent in the
+control parser itself.  There is no implied meaning in names like "V4"
+or "PL_ERROR" vs "PL_WARNING".
+
+Modules or subsystems (drm & drivers) can define multiple classmaps,
+as long as they (all the classmaps) share the limited 0..62
+per-module-group _class_id range, without overlap.
+
+If a module encounters a conflict between 2 classmaps it is _USEing or
+_DEFINEing, it can invoke the extended _USE_(name,_base) macro to
+de-conflict the respective ranges.
+
+``#define DEBUG`` will enable all pr_debugs in scope, including any
+class'd ones.  This won't be reflected in the PARAM readback value,
+but the class'd pr_debug callsites can be forced off by toggling the
+classmap-kparam all-on then all-off.

From: Philipp Hahn <phahn-oss@avm.de>

pr_fmt can be used to add a common prefix to any output from a module:
	#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ".%s " fmt, __func__

But adding additional arguments breaks dynamic debug:

Add an additional ', ...' to DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA_CLS to slurp
any additional argument, which `pr_fmt` might add.
