[PATCH v3 00/23] various dynamic_debug patches

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

 



This started as an experiment to see how hard it would be to change
the four pointers in struct _ddebug into relative offsets, a la
CONFIG_GENERIC_BUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS, thus saving 16 bytes per
pr_debug site (and thus exactly making up for the extra space used by
the introduction of jump labels in 9049fc74). I stumbled on a few
things that are probably worth fixing regardless of whether that goal
is deemed worthwhile.

v2: Added various acks/reviews.

v3: Rebased on top of v4.20-rc1, and (consequently) reimplemented the
x86 part using Nadav's asm macro infrastructure. I've taken the
liberty of preserving acks/reviews for the first 20, since the rebase
was completely clean. OTOH, I've removed any acks/reviews from the
last three patches, since they are essentially completely new in this
version.

Since there are some interdependencies, it's simplest if these go
through the same tree. Andrew, can I get you to pick up patches 1
through 17? They should be ready for some time in -next. If and when
the last three (new) patches get ack'ed, I'll ask you to pick up the
last 6 (Jason has ack'ed 18-20, but they don't make much sense without
at least one arch opting in to use DYNAMIC_DEBUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS).
