2009-12-11kgdb: Always process the whole breakpoint list on activate or deactivateJason Wessel
This patch fixes 2 edge cases in using kgdb in conjunction with gdb. 1) kgdb_deactivate_sw_breakpoints() should process the entire array of breakpoints. The failure to do so results in breakpoints that you cannot remove, because a break point can only be removed if its state flag is set to BP_SET. The easy way to duplicate this problem is to plant a break point in a kernel module and then unload the kernel module. 2) kgdb_activate_sw_breakpoints() should process the entire array of breakpoints. The failure to do so results in missed breakpoints when a breakpoint cannot be activated. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
2009-12-11kgdb: continue and warn on signal passing from gdbJason Wessel
On some architectures for the segv trap, gdb wants to pass the signal back on continue. For kgdb this is not the default behavior, because it can cause the kernel to crash if you arbitrarily pass back a exception outside of kgdb. Instead of causing instability, pass a message back to gdb about the supported kgdb signal passing and execute a standard kgdb continue operation.

2009-12-11kgdb,x86: do not set kgdb_single_step on x86Jason Wessel
On an SMP system the kgdb_single_step flag has the possibility to indefinitely hang the system in the case. Consider the case where, CPU 1 has the schedule lock and CPU 0 is set to single step, there is no way for CPU 0 to run another task. The easy way to observe the problem is to make 2 cpus busy, and run the kgdb test suite. You will see that it hangs the system very quickly. while [ 1 ] ; do find /proc > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done & while [ 1 ] ; do find /proc > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done & echo V1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts The side effect of this patch is that there is the possibility to miss a breakpoint in the case that a single step operation was executed to step over a breakpoint in common code. The trade off of the missed breakpoint is preferred to hanging the kernel. This can be fixed in the future by using kprobes or another strategy to step over planted breakpoints with out of line execution.

2009-12-11kgdb: allow for cpu switch when single steppingJason Wessel
The kgdb core should not assume that a single step operation of a kernel thread will complete on the same CPU. The single step flag is set at the "thread" level and it is possible in a multi cpu system that a kernel thread can get scheduled on another cpu the next time it is run. As a further safety net in case a slave cpu is hung, the debug master cpu will try 100 times before giving up and assuming control of the slave cpus is no longer possible. It is more useful to be able to get some information out of kgdb instead of spinning forever. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
2009-12-11kgdb,i386: Fix corner case access to ss with NMI watch dog exceptionJason Wessel
It is possible for the user_mode_vm(regs) check to return true on the i368 arch for a non master kgdb cpu or when the master kgdb cpu handles the NMI watch dog exception. The solution is simply to select the correct gdb_ss location based on the check to user_mode_vm(regs). CC: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: H.

2009-12-11kgdb: Replace strstr() by strchr() for single-character needlesGeert Uytterhoeven
Some versions of gcc replace calls to strstr() with single-character "needle" string parameters by calls to strchr() behind our back. This causes linking errors if strchr() is defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k, which BTW doesn't have kgdb support). Prevent this by explicitly calling strchr() instead.

2009-12-11Get rid of open-coding in ia64_brk()Al Viro
The comment in there used to be true, but these days do_brk() does the arch-specific check that covers what we open-coded here. So we can use sys_brk() just fine, only need to do force_successful_syscall_return() after it. See commit 3a459756810912d2c2bf188cef566af255936b4d - that's when the checks in do_brk() had been originally added.

We've had TASK_SIZE set to 1<<31 for 31bit tasks since May 2004. Before that old32_mmap() had to deal with do_mmap_pgoff() giving it an address out of range. It had tried to do that by checking return value and doing do_munmap() (at wrong address, BTW). IOW, that code had been dead for 5.5 years (and bogus - for 8). Kill.

2009-12-11drm/nouveau: Add DRM driver for NVIDIA GPUsBen Skeggs
This adds a drm/kms staging non-API stable driver for GPUs from NVIDIA. This driver is a KMS-based driver and requires a compatible nouveau userspace libdrm and nouveau X.org driver. This driver requires firmware files not available in this kernel tree, interested parties can find them via the nouveau project git archive. This driver is reverse engineered, and is in no way supported by nVidia. Support for nearly the complete range of nvidia hw from nv04->g80 (nv50) is available, and the kms driver should support driving nearly all output types (displayport is under development still) along with supporting suspend/resume. This work is all from the upstream nouveau project found at nouveau.freedesktop.org.

2009-12-10compat_ioctl: pass compat pointer directly to handlersArnd Bergmann

2009-12-10compat_ioctl: simplify lookup tableArnd Bergmann
The compat_ioctl table now only contains entries for COMPATIBLE_IOCTL, so we only need to know if a number is listed in it or now. As an optimization, we hash the table entries with a reversible transformation to get a more uniform distribution over it, sort the table at startup and then guess the position in the table when an ioctl number gets called to do a linear search from there. With the current set of ioctl numbers and the chosen transformation function, we need an average of four steps to find if a number is in the set, all of the accesses within one or two cache lines. This at least as good as the previous hash table approach but saves 8.5 kb of kernel memory. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
