      [AVR32] Enable debugging only when needed · 13b54a50
      Haavard Skinnemoen 提交于
      Keep track of processes being debugged (including the kernel itself)
      and turn the OCD system on and off as appropriate. Since enabling
      debugging turns off some optimizations in the CPU core, this fixes the
      issue that enabling KProbes support or simply running a program under
      gdbserver will reduce system performance significantly until the next
      reboot.
      
      The CPU performance will still be reduced for all processes while a
      process is being debugged, but this is a lot better than reducing the
      performance forever.

      [AVR32] Follow the rules when dealing with the OCD system · 2507bc13
      Haavard Skinnemoen 提交于
      The current debug trap handling code does a number of things that are
      illegal according to the AVR32 Architecture manual. Most importantly,
      it may try to schedule from Debug Mode, thus clearing the D bit, which
      can lead to "undefined behaviour".
      
      It seems like this works in most cases, but several people have
      observed somewhat unstable behaviour when debugging programs,
      including soft lockups. So there's definitely something which is not
      right with the existing code.
      
      The new code will never schedule from Debug mode, it will always exit
      Debug mode with a "retd" instruction, and if something not running in
      Debug mode needs to do something debug-related (like doing a single
      step), it will enter debug mode through a "breakpoint" instruction.
      The monitor code will then return directly to user space, bypassing
      its own saved registers if necessary (since we don't actually care
      about the trapped context, only the one that came before.)
      
      This adds three instructions to the common exception handling code,
      including one branch. It does not touch super-hot paths like the TLB
      miss handler.

      [AVR32] Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK to the work masks · 702f22b3
      Haavard Skinnemoen 提交于
      We really need to check TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK before returning to
      userspace. The existing code does not necessarily do this.
      
      Define the work masks as a bitwise OR of the respective flags instead
      of a hardcoded hex value to make it easier to spot errors like this in
      the future.
