[PATCH v5 14/33] dyndbg: add DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP macro

With DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP modules can declare up to 31 classnames.
By doing so, they authorize dyndbg to manipulate class'd prdbgs (ie:
__pr_debug_cls, and soon drm_*dbg)
:#> echo class DRM_UT_KMS +p > /proc/dynamic_debug/control
The macro declares and initializes a static struct ddebug_class_map:
- maps approved class-names to class_ids used in module,
by array order. forex: DRM_UT_*
- class-name vals allow validation of "class FOO" queries
using macro is opt-in
- enum class_map_type - determines interface, behavior
Each module has its own .class_id space, and only known class-names
will be authorized for a manipulation. Only DRM stuff should know this:
:#> echo class DRM_UT_CORE +p > control # across all modules
pr_debugs (with default class_id) are still controllable as before.
DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP(_var, _maptype, _base, classes...) is::
_var: name of the static struct var. user passes to module_param_cb()
if they want a sysfs node.
_maptype: this is hard-coded to DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_BITS for now.
_base: usually 0, it allows splitting 31 classes into subranges, so
that multiple classes / sysfs-nodes can share the module's
class-id space.
classes: list of class_name strings, these are mapped to class-ids
starting at _base. This class-names list must have a
corresponding ENUM, with SYMBOLS that match the literals,
and 1st enum val = _base.
enum class_map_type has 4 values, on 2 factors::
- classes are disjoint/independent vs relative/x<y/verbosity.
disjoint is basis, verbosity by overlay.
- input NUMBERS vs [+-]CLASS_NAMES
uints, ideally hex. vs +DRM_UT_CORE,-DRM_UT_KMS
DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_BITS: classes are separate, one per bit.
expecting hex input. built for drm.debug, basis for other types.
DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_NAMES: input is a CSV of [+-]CLASS_NAMES,
classes are independent, like DISJOINT
DD_CLASS_TYPE_LEVEL_NUM: input is numeric level, 0-N.
0 implies silence. use printk to break that.
relative levels applied on bitmaps.
DD_CLASS_TYPE_LEVEL_NAMES: input is a CSV of [+-]CLASS_NAMES,
names like: ERR,WARNING,NOTICE,INFO,DEBUG
avoiding EMERG,ALERT,CRIT,ERR - no point.
NOTES:
The macro places the initialized struct ddebug_class_map into the
__dyndbg_classes section. That draws a 'orphan' warning which we
handle in next commit. The struct attributes are necessary:
__aligned(8) stopped null-ptr derefs (why?), __used is needed by drm
drivers, which declare class-maps, but don't also declare a
sysfs-param, and thus dont ref the classmap; __used insures that the
linkage is made, then the class-map is found at load-time.
While its possible to handle both NAMES and NUMBERS in the same
sys-interface, there is ambiguity to avoid, by disallowing them
together. Later, if ambiguities are resolved, 2 new enums can permit
both inputs, on verbose & independent types separately, and authors
can select the interface they like.
The plan is to implement LEVELS in the callbacks, outside of
ddebug_exec_query(), which for simplicity will treat the CLASSES in
the map as disjoint. The callbacks can see map-type, and apply ++/--
loops (or bitops) to force the relative meanings across the
class-bitmap.
RFC: That leaves 2 issues:
1. doing LEVELs in callbacks means that the native >control interface
doesn't enforce the LEVELS relationship, so you could confusingly have
V3 enabled, but V1 disabled. OTOH, the control iface already allows
infinite tweaking of the underlying callsites; sysfs node readback can
only tell the user what they previously wrote.
2. All dyndbg >control reduces to a query/command, includes +/-, which
is at-root a kernel patching operation with +/- semantics. And the
_NAMES handling exposes it to the user, making it API-adjacent.
And its not just >control where +/- gets used (which is settled), the
new place is with sysfs-nodes exposing _*_NAMES classes, and here its
subtly different.
_DISJOINT_NAMES: is simple, independent
_LEVEL_NAMES: masks-on bits 0 .. N-1, N..max off
# turn on L3,L2,L1 others off
echo +L3 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names
# turn on L2,L1 others off
echo -L3 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names
IOW, the - changes the threshold-on bitpos by 1.
Alternatively, we could treat the +/- as half-duplex, where -L3 turns
off L>2 (and ignores L1), and +L2 would turn on L<=2 (and ignore others).

. revised DD_CLASS_TYPE_{DISJOINT,LEVEL}_* names
. reorder-enum by necessity - _NAMES feature is extra.
