The patch titled kgdb: switch master cpu after gdb thread command for SMP has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kgdb-switch-master-cpu-after-gdb-thread-command-for-smp.patch This patch was dropped because it had testing failures The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: kgdb: switch master cpu after gdb thread command for SMP From: sonic zhang <sonic.adi@xxxxxxxxx> The kgdb SMP patch, which is tested on blackfin bf561 dual core system. In blackfin SMP architecture, different core has its own L1 SRAM and MMR memory, which code running on the other core can't access. In current kgdb implementation, cpus are represented by thread with minus prefix. If user run thread command in gdb to switch to the thread of the other cpu, kgdb should: 1. send IPI signal to master cpu 2. release the specific passive cpu waiting in IPI handler 3. exit kgdb exception loop on master cpu and trap into kgdb wait in IPI handler 4. trap the released passive cpu into kgdb exception in IPI handler Signed-off-by: Sonic Zhang <sonic.adi@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Bryan Wu <cooloney@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/kgdb.h | 13 ++++++ kernel/kgdb.c | 85 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 2 files changed, 89 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff -puN include/linux/kgdb.h~kgdb-switch-master-cpu-after-gdb-thread-command-for-smp include/linux/kgdb.h --- a/include/linux/kgdb.h~kgdb-switch-master-cpu-after-gdb-thread-command-for-smp +++ a/include/linux/kgdb.h @@ -202,6 +202,19 @@ kgdb_arch_handle_exception(int vector, i */ extern void kgdb_roundup_cpus(unsigned long flags); +/** + * kgdb_roundup_cpu - Get spcific CPU into a holding pattern + * @cpu: Specific cpu id + * @flags: Current IRQ state + * + * On SMP systems, we need to switch cpu from current active one to + * the other passive one.
