tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/ It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

kgdboc: Use a platform device to handle tty drivers showing up late If you build CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE into the kernel then you should be able to have KGDB init itself at bootup by specifying the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter. This has worked OK for me for many years, but on a new device I switched to it stopped working. The problem is that on this new device the serial driver gets its probe deferred. Now when kgdb initializes it can't find the tty driver and when it gives up it never tries again. We could try to find ways to move up the initialization of the serial driver and such a thing might be worthwhile, but it's nice to be robust against serial drivers that load late. We could move kgdb to init itself later but that penalizes our ability to debug early boot code on systems where the driver inits early. We could roll our own system of detecting when new tty drivers get loaded and then use that to figure out when kgdb can init, but that's ugly. Instead, let's jump on the -EPROBE_DEFER bandwagon. We'll create a singleton instance of a "kgdboc" platform device. If we can't find our tty device when the singleton "kgdboc" probes we'll return -EPROBE_DEFER which means that the system will call us back later to try again when the tty device might be there. We won't fully transition all of the kgdboc to a platform device because early kgdb initialization (via the "ekgdboc" kernel command line parameter) still runs before the platform device has been created. The kgdb platform device is merely used as a convenient way to hook into the system's normal probe deferral mechanisms. As part of this, we'll ever-so-slightly change how the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter works. Previously if you booted up and kgdb couldn't find the tty driver then later reading '/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc' would return a blank string. Now kgdb will keep track of the string that came as part of the command line and give it back to you. It's expected that this should be an OK change.

kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel. Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late in the boot process. Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console. Let's enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early debugging. This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part of "struct console". It's assumed that if a boot console (with the flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write() function are polling functions. That means they work without interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if there's nothing to read. This should be a safe assumption since it appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support "kgdboc_earlycon". The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together. You should point them both to the same physical serial connection. At boot time, as the system transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers a tty), kgdb will switch over. One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the boot console) quite early in the system. Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone. You'd only be able to do this, of course, if the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console. - If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch over gdb in-flight if you're using it). When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty layer are not the same for the same port. For example when debugging on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly. Since digging up the boot console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter without specifying the name of the boot console. In this case we'll just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find. This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the existing "ekgdboc" parameter. While both provide a way to debug very early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different. Specifically "kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and there is a transition from one to the other. The "ekgdboc" parameter, on the other hand, replaces the "kgdboc" parameter. It runs the same logic as the "kgdboc" parameter but just relies on your TTY driver being present super early. The only known usage of the old "ekgdboc" parameter is documented as "ekgdboc=kbd earlyprintk=vga". It should be noted that "kbd" has special treatment allowing it to init early as a tty device.

workqueue: deprecate flush[_delayed]_work_sync() flush[_delayed]_work_sync() are now spurious. Mark them deprecated and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work(). If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to use the sync flushes at all and they're going away. This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Although, using oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses more locks (VT/TTY is good example).

For several common cases (e.g. an embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being used. In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops console in order to avoid duplicate messages.

kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel. Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late in the boot process. Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console. Let's enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early debugging. This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part of "struct console". It's assumed that if a boot console (with the flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write() function are polling functions. That means they work without interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if there's nothing to read. This should be a safe assumption since it appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support "kgdboc_earlycon". The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together. You should point them both to the same physical serial connection. At boot time, as the system transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers a tty), kgdb will switch over. One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the boot console) quite early in the system. Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone. You'd only be able to do this, of course, if the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console. - If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch over gdb in-flight if you're using it). When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty layer are not the same for the same port. For example when debugging on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly. Since digging up the boot console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter without specifying the name of the boot console. In this case we'll just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find. This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the existing "ekgdboc" parameter. While both provide a way to debug very early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different. Specifically "kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and there is a transition from one to the other. The "ekgdboc" parameter, on the other hand, replaces the "kgdboc" parameter. It runs the same logic as the "kgdboc" parameter but just relies on your TTY driver being present super early. The only known usage of the old "ekgdboc" parameter is documented as "ekgdboc=kbd earlyprintk=vga". It should be noted that "kbd" has special treatment allowing it to init early as a tty device.

kgdboc: Use a platform device to handle tty drivers showing up late If you build CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE into the kernel then you should be able to have KGDB init itself at bootup by specifying the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter. This has worked OK for me for many years, but on a new device I switched to it stopped working. The problem is that on this new device the serial driver gets its probe deferred. Now when kgdb initializes it can't find the tty driver and when it gives up it never tries again. We could try to find ways to move up the initialization of the serial driver and such a thing might be worthwhile, but it's nice to be robust against serial drivers that load late. We could move kgdb to init itself later but that penalizes our ability to debug early boot code on systems where the driver inits early. We could roll our own system of detecting when new tty drivers get loaded and then use that to figure out when kgdb can init, but that's ugly. Instead, let's jump on the -EPROBE_DEFER bandwagon. We'll create a singleton instance of a "kgdboc" platform device. If we can't find our tty device when the singleton "kgdboc" probes we'll return -EPROBE_DEFER which means that the system will call us back later to try again when the tty device might be there. We won't fully transition all of the kgdboc to a platform device because early kgdb initialization (via the "ekgdboc" kernel command line parameter) still runs before the platform device has been created. The kgdb platform device is merely used as a convenient way to hook into the system's normal probe deferral mechanisms. As part of this, we'll ever-so-slightly change how the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter works. Previously if you booted up and kgdb couldn't find the tty driver then later reading '/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc' would return a blank string. Now kgdb will keep track of the string that came as part of the command line and give it back to you. It's expected that this should be an OK change.

tty/serial: Add kgdb_nmi driver This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the port is attached to KGDB). Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33). This is because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus is able to intercept the magic sequence. Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw console. Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger console: Type $3#33 to enter the debugger> For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option, when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key press, so the kernel will be printing this: Hit <return> to enter the debugger> This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes nmi_console feature somewhat useless. And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

This is because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus is able to intercept the magic sequence. Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw console. Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger console: Type $3#33 to enter the debugger> For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option, when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key press, so the kernel will be printing this: Hit <return> to enter the debugger> This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes nmi_console feature somewhat useless. And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

kgdboc: Use a platform device to handle tty drivers showing up late If you build CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE into the kernel then you should be able to have KGDB init itself at bootup by specifying the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter. This has worked OK for me for many years, but on a new device I switched to it stopped working. The problem is that on this new device the serial driver gets its probe deferred. Now when kgdb initializes it can't find the tty driver and when it gives up it never tries again. We could try to find ways to move up the initialization of the serial driver and such a thing might be worthwhile, but it's nice to be robust against serial drivers that load late. We could move kgdb to init itself later but that penalizes our ability to debug early boot code on systems where the driver inits early. We could roll our own system of detecting when new tty drivers get loaded and then use that to figure out when kgdb can init, but that's ugly. Instead, let's jump on the -EPROBE_DEFER bandwagon. We'll create a singleton instance of a "kgdboc" platform device. If we can't find our tty device when the singleton "kgdboc" probes we'll return -EPROBE_DEFER which means that the system will call us back later to try again when the tty device might be there. We won't fully transition all of the kgdboc to a platform device because early kgdb initialization (via the "ekgdboc" kernel command line parameter) still runs before the platform device has been created. The kgdb platform device is merely used as a convenient way to hook into the system's normal probe deferral mechanisms. As part of this, we'll ever-so-slightly change how the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter works. Previously if you booted up and kgdb couldn't find the tty driver then later reading '/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc' would return a blank string. Now kgdb will keep track of the string that came as part of the command line and give it back to you. It's expected that this should be an OK change.

kgdboc: Use a platform device to handle tty drivers showing up late If you build CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE into the kernel then you should be able to have KGDB init itself at bootup by specifying the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter. This has worked OK for me for many years, but on a new device I switched to it stopped working. The problem is that on this new device the serial driver gets its probe deferred. Now when kgdb initializes it can't find the tty driver and when it gives up it never tries again. We could try to find ways to move up the initialization of the serial driver and such a thing might be worthwhile, but it's nice to be robust against serial drivers that load late. We could move kgdb to init itself later but that penalizes our ability to debug early boot code on systems where the driver inits early. We could roll our own system of detecting when new tty drivers get loaded and then use that to figure out when kgdb can init, but that's ugly. Instead, let's jump on the -EPROBE_DEFER bandwagon. We'll create a singleton instance of a "kgdboc" platform device. If we can't find our tty device when the singleton "kgdboc" probes we'll return -EPROBE_DEFER which means that the system will call us back later to try again when the tty device might be there. We won't fully transition all of the kgdboc to a platform device because early kgdb initialization (via the "ekgdboc" kernel command line parameter) still runs before the platform device has been created. The kgdb platform device is merely used as a convenient way to hook into the system's normal probe deferral mechanisms. As part of this, we'll ever-so-slightly change how the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter works. Previously if you booted up and kgdb couldn't find the tty driver then later reading '/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc' would return a blank string. Now kgdb will keep track of the string that came as part of the command line and give it back to you. It's expected that this should be an OK change.

kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel. Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late in the boot process. Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console. Let's enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early debugging. This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part of "struct console". It's assumed that if a boot console (with the flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write() function are polling functions. That means they work without interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if there's nothing to read. This should be a safe assumption since it appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support "kgdboc_earlycon". The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together. You should point them both to the same physical serial connection. At boot time, as the system transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers a tty), kgdb will switch over. One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the boot console) quite early in the system. Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone. You'd only be able to do this, of course, if the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console. - If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch over gdb in-flight if you're using it). When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty layer are not the same for the same port. For example when debugging on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly. Since digging up the boot console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter without specifying the name of the boot console. In this case we'll just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find. This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the existing "ekgdboc" parameter. While both provide a way to debug very early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different. Specifically "kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and there is a transition from one to the other. The "ekgdboc" parameter, on the other hand, replaces the "kgdboc" parameter. It runs the same logic as the "kgdboc" parameter but just relies on your TTY driver being present super early. The only known usage of the old "ekgdboc" parameter is documented as "ekgdboc=kbd earlyprintk=vga". It should be noted that "kbd" has special treatment allowing it to init early as a tty device.

kdb: Switch to use safer dbg_io_ops over console APIs In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock.

Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being used. In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs.

Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone. You'd only be able to do this, of course, if the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console. - If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch over gdb in-flight if you're using it). When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty layer are not the same for the same port. For example when debugging on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly. Since digging up the boot console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter without specifying the name of the boot console. In this case we'll just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find. This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the existing "ekgdboc" parameter. While both provide a way to debug very early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different. Specifically "kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and there is a transition from one to the other.

kdb: Switch to use safer dbg_io_ops over console APIs In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses more locks (VT/TTY is good example). Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being used. In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change, "is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel. Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late in the boot process. Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console. Let's enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early debugging. This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part of "struct console". It's assumed that if a boot console (with the flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write() function are polling functions. That means they work without interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if there's nothing to read. This should be a safe assumption since it appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support "kgdboc_earlycon". The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together. You should point them both to the same physical serial connection. At boot time, as the system transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers a tty), kgdb will switch over. One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2.

One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the boot console) quite early in the system. Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone. You'd only be able to do this, of course, if the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console. - If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch over gdb in-flight if you're using it). When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty layer are not the same for the same port. For example when debugging on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly. Since digging up the boot console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter without specifying the name of the boot console. In this case we'll just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find. This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the existing "ekgdboc" parameter. While both provide a way to debug very early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different. Specifically "kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and there is a transition from one to the other. The "ekgdboc" parameter, on the other hand, replaces the "kgdboc" parameter. It runs the same logic as the "kgdboc" parameter but just relies on your TTY driver being present super early. The only known usage of the old "ekgdboc" parameter is documented as "ekgdboc=kbd earlyprintk=vga". It should be noted that "kbd" has special treatment allowing it to init early as a tty device.

kdb: Switch to use safer dbg_io_ops over console APIs In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses more locks (VT/TTY is good example). Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being used. In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change, "is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

kdb: Switch to use safer dbg_io_ops over console APIs In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses more locks (VT/TTY is good example). Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being used. In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change, "is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel. Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late in the boot process. Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console. Let's enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early debugging. This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part of "struct console". It's assumed that if a boot console (with the flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write() function are polling functions. That means they work without interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if there's nothing to read. This should be a safe assumption since it appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support "kgdboc_earlycon". The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together. You should point them both to the same physical serial connection. At boot time, as the system transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers a tty), kgdb will switch over. One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer. There are two main problems: 1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it. 2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the boot console) quite early in the system. Presumably these drivers were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us problems nontheless. Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe ordering. kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets right after all other tty devices. It's not fun to rely on this, but it does work for the most part. Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers. Other serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the boot console) and tty at nearly the same time. The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to keep using the boot console. This may sound surprising, but it has been found to work well in practice. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working. Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the normal kgdb polling functions. That means continuing to use them should work just fine. To make things even more likely to work work we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the boot console. NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways. If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation. Specifically: - If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the boot console is gone.

kgdboc: Use a platform device to handle tty drivers showing up late If you build CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE into the kernel then you should be able to have KGDB init itself at bootup by specifying the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter. This has worked OK for me for many years, but on a new device I switched to it stopped working. The problem is that on this new device the serial driver gets its probe deferred. Now when kgdb initializes it can't find the tty driver and when it gives up it never tries again. We could try to find ways to move up the initialization of the serial driver and such a thing might be worthwhile, but it's nice to be robust against serial drivers that load late. We could move kgdb to init itself later but that penalizes our ability to debug early boot code on systems where the driver inits early. We could roll our own system of detecting when new tty drivers get loaded and then use that to figure out when kgdb can init, but that's ugly. Instead, let's jump on the -EPROBE_DEFER bandwagon. We'll create a singleton instance of a "kgdboc" platform device. If we can't find our tty device when the singleton "kgdboc" probes we'll return -EPROBE_DEFER which means that the system will call us back later to try again when the tty device might be there. We won't fully transition all of the kgdboc to a platform device because early kgdb initialization (via the "ekgdboc" kernel command line parameter) still runs before the platform device has been created. The kgdb platform device is merely used as a convenient way to hook into the system's normal probe deferral mechanisms. As part of this, we'll ever-so-slightly change how the "kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter works. Previously if you booted up and kgdb couldn't find the tty driver then later reading '/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc' would return a blank string. Now kgdb will keep track of the string that came as part of the command line and give it back to you. It's expected that this should be an OK change.
