2017-09-01kbuild: use $(abspath ...) instead of $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)Masahiro Yamada
Kbuild conventionally uses $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd) idiom to get the absolute path of the directory because GNU Make 3.80, the minimal supported version at that time, did not support $(abspath ...) or $(realpath ...). Commit 37d69ee30808 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81") dropped the GNU Make 3.80 support, so we are now allowed to use those make-builtin helpers. This conversion will provide better portability without relying on the pwd command or its location /bin/pwd. I am intentionally using $(realpath ...) instead $(abspath ...) in some places. The difference between the two is $(realpath ...) returns an empty string if the given path does not exist. It is convenient in places where we need to error-out if the makefile fails to create an output directory.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: use explicit encoding=utf8 errors=replaceLeonard Crestez
Use errors=replace because it is never desirable for lx-dmesg to fail on string decoding errors, not even if the log buffer is corrupt and we show incorrect info. The kernel will sometimes print utf8, for example the copyright symbol from jffs2. In order to make this work specify 'utf8' everywhere because python2 otherwise defaults to 'ascii'. In theory the second errors='replace' is not be required because everything that can be decoded as utf8 should also be encodable back to utf8. But it's better to be extra safe here. It's worth noting that this is definitely not true for encoding='ascii', unknown characters are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER and they fail to encode back to ascii.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: cast log_buf to void* for addr fetchLeonard Crestez
In some cases it is possible for the str() conversion here to throw encoding errors because log_buf might not point to valid ascii. For example: (gdb) python print str(gdb.parse_and_eval("log_buf")) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0303' in position 24: ordinal not in range(128) Avoid this by explicitly casting to (void *) inside the gdb expression.

2017-07-12scripts/gdb: add lx-fdtdump commandPeter Griffin
lx-fdtdump dumps the flattened device tree passed to the kernel from the bootloader to the filename specified as the command argument. If no argument is provided it defaults to fdtdump.dtb. This then allows further post processing on the machine running GDB. The fdt header is also also printed in the GDB console. For example: (gdb) lx-fdtdump fdt_magic: 0xD00DFEED fdt_totalsize: 0xC108 off_dt_struct: 0x38 off_dt_strings: 0x3804 off_mem_rsvmap: 0x28 version: 17 last_comp_version: 16 Dumped fdt to fdtdump.dtb >fdtdump fdtdump.dtb | less This command is useful as the bootloader can often re-write parts of the device tree, and this can sometimes cause the kernel to not boot.

2017-06-02scripts/gdb: make lx-dmesg command work (reliably)André Draszik
lx-dmesg needs access to the log_buf symbol from printk.c. Unfortunately, the symbol log_buf also exists in BPF's verifier.c and hence gdb can pick one or the other. If it happens to pick BPF's log_buf, lx-dmesg doesn't work: (gdb) lx-dmesg Python Exception <class 'gdb.MemoryError'> Cannot access memory at address 0x0: Error occurred in Python command: Cannot access memory at address 0x0 (gdb) p log_buf $15 = 0x0 Luckily, GDB has a way to deal with this, see https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Symbols.html (gdb) info variables ^log_buf$ All variables matching regular expression "^log_buf$": File <linux.git>/kernel/bpf/verifier.c: static char *log_buf; File <linux.git>/kernel/printk/printk.c: static char *log_buf; (gdb) p 'verifier.c'::log_buf $1 = 0x0 (gdb) p 'printk.c'::log_buf $2 = 0x811a6aa0 <__log_buf> "" (gdb) p &log_buf $3 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf> (gdb) p &'verifier.c'::log_buf $4 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf> (gdb) p &'printk.c'::log_buf $5 = (char **) 0x8048b7d0 <log_buf> By being explicit about the location of the symbol, we can make lx-dmesg work again.

2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree ParserKieran Bingham
Linux makes use of the Radix Tree data structure to store pointers indexed by integer values. This structure is utilised across many structures in the kernel including the IRQ descriptor tables, and several filesystems. This module provides a method to lookup values from a structure given its head node. Usage: The function lx_radix_tree_lookup, must be given a symbol of type struct radix_tree_root, and an index into that tree. The object returned is a generic integer value, and must be cast correctly to the type based on the storage in the data structure. For example, to print the irq descriptor in the sparse irq_desc_tree at index 18, try the following: (gdb) print (struct irq_desc)$lx_radix_tree_lookup(irq_desc_tree, 18) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/d2028c55e50cf95a9b7f8ca0d11885174b0cc709.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit 2f35c41f58a9 ("module: Replace module_ref with atomic_t refcnt") changes the way refcnt is handled but did not update the gdb script to use the new variable. Since refcnt is not per-cpu anymore, we can directly read its value.

2015-02-17scripts/gdb: disable pagination while printing from breakpoint handlerJan Kiszka
While reporting the (refreshed) list of modules on automatic updates we may hit the page boundary of the output console and cause a stop if pagination is enabled. However, gdb does not accept user input while running over the breakpoint handler. So we get stuck, and the user is forced to interrupt gdb. Resolve this by disabling pagination during automatic symbol updates. We restore the user's configuration once done.

2015-02-17scripts/gdb: use a generator instead of iterator for task listDaniel Wagner
The iterator does not return any task_struct from the thread_group list because the first condition in the 'if not t or ...' will only be the first time None. Instead of keeping track of the state ourself in the next() function, we fall back using Python's generator.

2015-02-17scripts/gdb: port to python3 / gdb7.7Pantelis Koukousoulas
I tried to use these scripts in an ubuntu 14.04 host (gdb 7.7 compiled against python 3.3) but there were several errors. I believe this patch fixes these issues so that the commands now work (I tested lx-symbols, lx-dmesg, lx-lsmod). Main issues that needed to be resolved: * In python 2 iterators have a "next()" method. In python 3 it is __next__() instead (so let's just add both). * In older python versions there was an implicit conversion in object.__format__() (used when an object is in string.format()) where it was converting the object to str first and then calling str's __format__(). This has now been removed so we must explicitly convert to str the objects for which we need to keep this behavior. * In dmesg.py: in python 3 log_buf is now a "memoryview" object which needs to be converted to a string in order to use string methods like "splitlines()". Luckily memoryview exists in python 2.7.6 as well, so we can convert log_buf to memoryview and use the same code in both python 2 and python 3. This version of the patch has now been tested with gdb 7.7 and both python 3.4 and python 2.7.6 (I think asking for at least python 2.7.6 is a reasonable requirement instead of complicating the code with version checks etc).
