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.

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: NMichael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

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.

Currently if you are doing a global perf recording with hardware breakpoints (ie perf record -e mem:0xdeadbeef -a), you can oops with: Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000738890 cpu 0xc: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c0000003f76af8d0] pc: c000000000738890: .hw_breakpoint_handler+0xa0/0x1e0 lr: c000000000738830: .hw_breakpoint_handler+0x40/0x1e0 sp: c0000003f76afb50 msr: 8000000000001032 dar: 6f0 dsisr: 42000000 current = 0xc0000003f765ac00 paca = 0xc00000000f262a00 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 6810, comm = loop-read enter ? for help [c0000003f76afbe0] c00000000073cd04 .notifier_call_chain.isra.0+0x84/0xe0 [c0000003f76afc80] c00000000073cdbc .notify_die+0x3c/0x60 [c0000003f76afd20] c0000000000139f0 .do_dabr+0x40/0xf0 [c0000003f76afe30] c000000000005a9c handle_dabr_fault+0x14/0x48 --- Exception: 300 (Data Access) at 0000000010000480 SP (ff8679e0) is in userspace This is because we don't check to see if the break point is associated with task before we deference the task_struct pointer.

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. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

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: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

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.

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.

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.

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.
