hi Greg, Jason, DRM-folk, This patchset fixes the CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y regression, Fixes: bb2ff6c27bc9 ("drm: Disable dynamic debug as broken") this is v8. Its also here: https://github.com/jimc/linux/tree/dd-classmap-fix-8a v7 had at least 2 problems: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231101002609.3533731-1-jim.cromie@xxxxxxxxx/ https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/125066/ 1. missing __align(8) in METATDATA macro, giving too much placement freedom to linker, caused weird segvs following non-ptr vals, but for builtin modules only. found by lkp-test. 2. the main patch changed both the dyndbg API, and the drm/drivers. This was a flag-day annoyance, and not practical. Fix by preserving old API macro until "later", and splitting the patch and set into 2 sequential subsets. removal can wait. What was broken ? Booting a modular kernel with drm.debug=0x1ff, this enabled pr_debugs only in drm itself, not the yet-to-be loaded driver + helpers. I had tested with scripts doing lots of modprobes with dyndbg=<> options permuting. I didn't notice that I didn't really test without them. The deeper cause was my design error, a violation of the K&R rule: "define once, refer many times". DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP defined the classmap, and was used everywhere, re-declaring the same static classmap repeatedly. Jani Nikula actually picked up on this at the time, but didn't scream loudly enough for anyone to notice, I know I didn't get it then. One patchset across 2 trees didn't help either. The revised classmap API "splits" it to def & ref. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE fixes & updates the busted macro, EXPORTing the classmap instead. It gets invoked once per subsystem, by the parent/builtin, drm.ko for DRM. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE in drivers and helpers refer to the classmap by name, which links the 2 modules (like __drm_debug already does). These 2 tell dyndbg to map "class FOO" to the defined FOO_ID, which allows it to make those changes via >control. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_PARAM*, defines the controlling kparam, and binds it to both the _var, and the _DEFINEd classmap. So drm uses this to bind the classmap to __drm_debug. It provides the common control-point for the sub-system; it is applied to the classmaps during modprobe of both _DEFINEr and USErs. It also enforces the relative nature of LEVEL classmaps, ie V3>V2. DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP is preserved to decouple the DRM patches. A new struct and elf section contain the _USEs; on modprobe, these are scanned similarly to the _DEFINEs, but follow the references to their defining modules, find the kparam wired to the classmap, and apply its classmap settings to the USEr. This action is what V1 missed, which is why drivers failed to enable debug during modprobe. In order to recapitulate the regression scenario without involving DRM, the patchset (v6 I think) adds test_dynamic_debug_submod, which is a duplicate of its parent; _submod.c #defines _SUBMOD, and then includes parent. This puts _DEFINE and _USE close together in the same file, for obviousness. It also guarantees that the submod always has the same complement of debug()s, giving consistent output from both when classmaps are working properly, as tested when changing callsites via both param and >control. To provide a turn-key selftest, the patchset also adds ./tools/testing/selftests/dynamic_debug/dyndbg_selftest.sh, pilfered from a debug-to-trace patchset I and Lukasz Bartozik have been working out. It starts with basic_tests, then to test 2 new parsing delimiters, which simplify testing of the classmap functionality. It works nicely from virtme-ng: [jimc@frodo vx]$ vrun_ -- ./tools/testing/selftests/dynamic_debug/dyndbg_selftest.sh doing: vng --verbose --name v6.9-rc5-34-g2f1ace6e1c68 \ --user root --cwd ../.. \ -a dynamic_debug.verbose=2 -p 4 \ -- ./tools/testing/selftests/dynamic_debug/dyndbg_selftest.sh virtme: waiting for virtiofsd to start ...
