* powerpc/hw_brk: Fix off by one error when validating DAWR region endMichael Neuling2013-07-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit e2a800beaca1f580945773e57d1a0e7cd37b1056 upstream. The Data Address Watchpoint Register (DAWR) on POWER8 can take a 512 byte range but this range must not cross a 512 byte boundary. Unfortunately we were off by one when calculating the end of the region, hence we were not allowing some breakpoint regions which were actually valid. This fixes this error.

* powerpc/hw_brk: Fix clearing of extraneous IRQMichael Neuling2013-07-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 540e07c67efe42ef6b6be4f1956931e676d58a15 upstream. In 9422de3 "powerpc: Hardware breakpoints rewrite to handle non DABR breakpoint registers" we changed the way we mark extraneous irqs with this: - info->extraneous_interrupt = !((bp->attr.bp_addr <= dar) && - (dar - bp->attr.bp_addr < bp->attr.bp_len)); + if (!((bp->attr.bp_addr <= dar) && + (dar - bp->attr.bp_addr < bp->attr.bp_len))) + info->type |= HW_BRK_TYPE_EXTRANEOUS_IRQ; Unfortunately this is bogus as it never clears extraneous IRQ if it's already set. This correctly clears extraneous IRQ before possibly setting it.

* powerpc: Change hardware breakpoint to allow longer rangesMichael Neuling2013-01-291-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | Change the hardware breakpoint code so that we can support wider ranged breakpoints. This means both ptrace and perf hardware breakpoints can use upto 512 byte long breakpoints when using the DAWR and only 8 byte when using the DABR.

* powerpc: Hardware breakpoints rewrite to handle non DABR breakpoint registersMichael Neuling2013-01-101-42/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a rewrite so that we don't assume we are using the DABR throughout the code. We now use the arch_hw_breakpoint to store the breakpoint in a generic manner in the thread_struct, rather than storing the raw DABR value. The ptrace GET/SET_DEBUGREG interface currently passes the raw DABR in from userspace. We keep this functionality, so that future changes (like the POWER8 DAWR), will still fake the DABR to userspace.

* powerpc: Dynamically calculate the dabrx based on kernel/user/hypervisorMichael Neuling2012-09-101-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | Currently we mark the DABRX to interrupt on all matches (hypervisor/kernel/user and then filter in software. We can be a lot smarter now that we can set the DABRX dynamically. This sets the DABRX based on the flags passed by the user. Signed-off-by: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc: Rework set_dabr so it can take a DABRX value as wellMichael Neuling2012-09-101-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Rework set_dabr to take a DABRX value as well. Both the pseries and PS3 hypervisors do some checks on the DABRX values that are passed in the hcall. This patch stops bogus values from being passed to hypervisor. Also, in the case where we are clearing the breakpoint, where DABR and DABRX are zero, we modify the DABRX value to make it valid so that the hcall won't fail.

| | | | | | | | | | | None of the files touched here are modules, and they are not exporting any symbols either -- so there is no need to be including the module.h. Builds of all the files remains successful. Even kernel/module.c does not need to include it, since it includes linux/moduleloader.h instead.

* powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Tell generic code we have no instruction breakpointsPaul Mackerras2010-06-301-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At present, hw_breakpoint_slots() returns 1 regardless of what type of breakpoint is specified in the type argument. Since we don't define CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS, there are separate values for TYPE_INST and TYPE_DATA, and hw_breakpoint_slots() returns 1 for both, effectively advertising instruction breakpoint support which doesn't exist. This fixes it by making hw_breakpoint_slots return 1 for TYPE_DATA and 0 for TYPE_INST. This moves hw_breakpoint_slots() from the powerpc hw_breakpoint.h to hw_breakpoint.c because the definitions of TYPE_INST and TYPE_DATA aren't available in <asm/hw_breakpoint.h>. They are defined in <linux/hw_breakpoint.h> but we can't include that header in <asm/hw_breakpoint.h>, and nor can we rely on <linux/hw_breakpoint.h> being included before <asm/hw_breakpoint.h>. Since hw_breakpoint_slots() is only called at boot time, there is no performance impact from making it a real function rather than a static inline. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Cooperate better with other single-steppersPaul Mackerras2010-06-231-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | The code we had to clear the MSR_SE bit was not doing anything because the caller (ultimately single_step_exception() in traps.c) had already cleared. Instead of trying to leave MSR_SE set if the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag is set (which indicates that the process is being single-stepped by ptrace), we instead return NOTIFY_DONE in that case, which means the caller will generate a SIGTRAP for the process.

* powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Fix off-by-one in checking access addressPaul Mackerras2010-06-231-16/+7
| | | | | | | | The code would accept an access to an address one byte past the end of the requested range as legitimate, due to having a "<=" rather than a "<". This fixes that and cleans up the code a bit. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Discard extraneous interrupt due to accesses outside ↵K.Prasad2010-06-221-2/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | symbol length Many a times, the requested breakpoint length can be less than the fixed breakpoint length i.e. 8 bytes supported by PowerPC 64-bit server (Book III S) processors. This could lead to extraneous interrupts resulting in false breakpoint notifications. This detects and discards such interrupts for non-ptrace requests. We don't change ptrace behaviour to avoid breaking compatability.

* powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Enable hw-breakpoints while handling intervening signalsK.Prasad2010-06-221-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A signal delivered between a hw_breakpoint_handler() and the single_step_dabr_instruction() will not have the breakpoint active while the signal handler is running -- the signal delivery will set up a new MSR value which will not have MSR_SE set, so we won't get the signal step interrupt until and unless the signal handler returns (which it may never do). To fix this, we restore the breakpoint when delivering a signal -- we clear the MSR_SE bit and set the DABR again. If the signal handler returns, the DABR interrupt will occur again when the instruction that we were originally trying to single-step gets re-executed.

* powerpc, hw_breakpoints: Implement hw_breakpoints for 64-bit server processorsK.Prasad2010-06-221-0/+325
Implement perf-events based hw-breakpoint interfaces for PowerPC 64-bit server (Book III S) processors. This allows access to a given location to be used as an event that can be counted or profiled by the perf_events subsystem. This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can also be used for process debugging via ptrace. When perf_event hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.
