[PATCH v9 00/53] fix CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This fixes dynamic-debug support for DRM.debug, added via classmaps.
commit bb2ff6c27bc9 (drm: Disable dynamic debug as broken)

CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y was marked broken because drm.debug=val
was applied when drm.ko was modprobed; too early for the yet-to-load
drivers, which thus missed the enablement.  My testing with
/etc/modprobe.d/ entries and modprobes with dyndbg=$querycmd options
obscured this omission.

The fix is to replace invocations of DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP with
DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE for core, and DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE for drivers.
The distinction allows dyndbg to also handle the users properly.

DRM is the only current classmaps user, and is not really using it,
so if you think DRM could benefit from zero-off-cost debugs based on
static-keys, please test.

CLASSMAPS FROM THE TOP

dynamic-debug classmap's primary goal was to bring zero-off-cost
debugs, via static-keys, to DRM.

drm.debug: is ~5000 debugs across core, drivers, helpers; each in 1 of
10 exclusive categories, all controlled by bits in a sysfs knob.

  drm.debug=0x1ff  # bootarg
  echo 0x4 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug  # run-time setting

Below the sysfs interface, classmaps are exposed in the >control
grammar with a new "class" keyword.  This is mostly like the other
keywords, differing by:

a- classnames are client/subsystem/domain defined, not code-name-structural.
   the classnames are global, across system
   IOW: "class DRM_UT_CORE" selects on any module which knows the class

b- classes are protected from unqualified modification.

   # cannot disable any DRM (or other) classes
   echo -p > /proc/dynamic_debug/control

c- classes don't have wildcards - add if needed.
   DRM uses "${SUBSYS}_${CATNAME}"
   probably more useful with "${TOP}_${MID}_${LOW}" classnames

API in use:

DRM defines its categories with an enum-type, the obvious thing to do
was to copy/emulate that for classmaps; this also preserves the
__pr_dbg_class(DRM_UT_CORE, "core stuff") style already used in drm's
~5000 drm_dbg_* macro calls.

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE(drm_debug_classes, ...);
DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE(drm_debug_classes);

Classmaps get DEFINEd once (in drm.ko for core) and USEd (in drivers
and helpers), these 2 declarations respectively define and export a
classmap (in core), and refer to the exported class-struct from the
modules.

They both tell dynamic-debug that the module has some of these class'd
pr_debugs, so dyndbg uses the classmap's names to validate >control inputs.

The distinction allows USErs to act differently than the DEFINEr; they
have to follow the ref back to the DEFINEing module, find the kparam
connected to the classmap, and lookup and apply its modprobed value.
(this is the bug-fix).

Dyndbg uses the classnames to validate "class FOO" >control inputs,
and apply the changes to each module that has DEFINEd or USEd the
classmap.

This makes classmaps opt-in: modules must _DEFINE or _USE a classmap
for their class'd pr_debug()s to be >control'd.

NOTE: __pr_dbg_class(1, "const-int unreachable class 1"); is legal,
but not controllable unless the const 1 has been mapped to a _DEFINE'd
classname.

NB: and __pr_dbg_class(i++, "undeclared class") is illegal.

In drm_print.c we have:

/* classnames must match value-symbols of enum drm_debug_category */
DRM_CLASSMAP_DEFINE(drm_debug_classes, DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_BITS,
                    DRM_UT_CORE,
                    "DRM_UT_CORE",
                    "DRM_UT_DRIVER",
                    "DRM_UT_KMS",
                    "DRM_UT_PRIME",
                    "DRM_UT_ATOMIC",
                    "DRM_UT_VBL",
                    "DRM_UT_STATE",
                    "DRM_UT_LEASE",
                    "DRM_UT_DP",
                    "DRM_UT_DRMRES");

This maps the sequence of "classnames" to ints starting with DRM_UT_CORE.
other offsets allow sharing the per-module 0..63 class-id space
  
Only complete, linear maps are recommended.

An APPLY_FN(__stringify, __VA_ARGS__) would fix the "string-indirection"
I have one written, but didnt want to overload this submission.

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_PARAM_REF() creates the sysfs-kparam classbits knob,
binding the extern'd long-int/bitvec to the classmap.

DRM's categories are independent of each other.  The other possible
classmap-type/behavior is "related", ie somehow "ordered": V3>V2.  The
relatedness of classes in a classmap is enforced at the kparam, where
they are all set together, not at the >control interface.

THE PATCHSET has 2 halves:

1- dynamic-debug fix - API change

The root cause was DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP tried to do too much, and
its use in both core and drivers, helpers couldnt sort the difference.

The fix is to replace it with DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE in core, and
DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE in drivers,helpers. The 1st differs from -v1 by
exporting the classmap, allowing 2nd to ref it.  They respectively add
records to 2 ELF sections in the module.

Now, dyndbg's on-modprobe handler follows the _USE/refs to the owning
module, finds the controlling kparam: drm.debug, and applies its value
thru the classmap, to the module's pr_debugs.

Recent revs of this patchset added a selftest for dyndbg, which
recapitulates the DRM regression scenario using the 2 test modules.
The test verifies that the dependent module is initialized properly
from the parent's classmap kparam.

So it gives a basic turnkey selftest:

 [root@v6 b0-dd-drm]# V=0 ../../tools/testing/selftests/dynamic_debug/dyndbg_selftest.sh 
 # consulting KCONFIG_CONFIG: .config
 # BASIC_TESTS 
 : 0 matches on =p
 : 14 matches on =p
 : 0 matches on =p
 : 21 matches on =mf
 : 0 matches on =ml
 : 6 matches on =mfl
 ...
 # Done on: Sun Jun 30 10:34:24 PM MDT 2024
	 
This latest rev fixes the test for the various CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG*
build combos, by skipping some subtests where the expected counts are
wrong. Lukasz Bartosik caught this - thanks.

2- DRM fixes - use new api.

These are largely unchanged since -v1 above:

a. update core to invoke DRM_CLASSMAP_DEFINE
b. wrap DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_* with DRM_CLASSMAP_* - hide ifdef

c. now with separate +DRM_CLASSMAP_USE patches for each driver/helper: 
d. and defer dropping DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP til later

Maybe theres a single place to invoke DRM_CLASSMAP_USE just once,
perhaps from a client library c-file. I poked a little, didn't find it.

Patches are against v6.9
theyre also at:
tree/branch: https://github.com/jimc/linux.git dd-classmap-fix-8i
branch HEAD: dd31011435409a5bd70cc92bfd846407f6f1a2d8  drm: restore CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG un-BROKEN


Finally, classmaps are in a meta-stable state right now; some governor
might walk it over to the gravel pit out back.

Tested-bys would help greatly, get it off the fence it straddles.
Please specify method: selftest or drm.debug=0x1ff boot.

Also entertaining Reviewed-bys :-}
