From 62a038d34db26771756cf3689e36de638bedd2c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "K.Prasad" Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2009 23:43:33 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] hw-breakpoints: introducing generic hardware breakpoint handler interfaces This patch introduces the generic Hardware Breakpoint interfaces for both user and kernel space requests. This core Api handles the hardware breakpoints through new helpers. It handles the user-space breakpoints and kernel breakpoints in front of arch implementation. One can choose kernel wide breakpoints using the following helpers and passing them a generic struct hw_breakpoint: - register_kernel_hw_breakpoint() - unregister_kernel_hw_breakpoint() - modify_kernel_hw_breakpoint() On the other side, you can choose per task breakpoints. - register_user_hw_breakpoint() - unregister_user_hw_breakpoint() - modify_user_hw_breakpoint() [ fweisbec@gmail.com: fix conflict against perfcounter ] Original-patch-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: K.Prasad Reviewed-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker --- arch/Kconfig | 4 + kernel/Makefile | 1 + kernel/hw_breakpoint.c | 378 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 383 insertions(+) create mode 100644 kernel/hw_breakpoint.c diff --git a/arch/Kconfig b/arch/Kconfig index 78a35e9dc104..1adf2d0e6356 100644 --- a/arch/Kconfig +++ b/arch/Kconfig @@ -112,3 +112,7 @@ config HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG config HAVE_DEFAULT_NO_SPIN_MUTEXES bool + +config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT + bool + diff --git a/kernel/Makefile b/kernel/Makefile index a35eee3436de..18ad1110b226 100644 --- a/kernel/Makefile +++ b/kernel/Makefile @@ -96,6 +96,7 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_TRACING) += trace/ obj-$(CONFIG_X86_DS) += trace/ obj-$(CONFIG_SMP) += sched_cpupri.o obj-$(CONFIG_SLOW_WORK) += slow-work.o +obj-$(CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT) += hw_breakpoint.o ifneq ($(CONFIG_SCHED_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER),y) # According to Alan Modra , the -fno-omit-frame-pointer is diff --git a/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c b/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..c1f64e65a9f3 --- /dev/null +++ b/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c @@ -0,0 +1,378 @@ +/* + * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify + * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or + * (at your option) any later version. + * + * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
