[PATCH v6 43/57] dyndbg: add _index,_map to struct _ddebug

We now have 2 vectors of data: (__dyndbg, __dyndbg_sites), known to be
equal-length, with _ddebug.site connecting them, like rungs on a
ladder. In order to drop _ddebug.site, we need to replace the
absolute ptr with a cheap relative-address computation:
struct _ddebug_site *site = _ddebug_map_site(desc);
1st step: (done here)
add ._index, ._map fields, and initialize them in __debug_add_module()
to N (and = each other), where N is each element's position in the
builtins (or loaded-module). Then _ddebug_map_site(desc) can compute
&descs[0], and then use container_of() to go up 1 struct.
RFC: Next steps: (outlined here, not done):
1. UPLINK:
Define 2 new header structs, with _uplink fields, pointing at _ddebug_info:
struct _ddebug_site_hdr {
union {
struct _ddebug_info _uplink*;
struct _ddebug_site __; // sizeof this
};
};
struct _ddebug_hdr {
union {
struct _ddebug_info _uplink*;
struct _ddebug __; // sizeof this
};
};
the union forces the allocation to be the bigger of the 2, with the
expectation that the pointer will always fit.
2. Reserve a record in front of the __dyndbg* sections.
can be done in {module,vmlinux}.lds.h, something like:
SECTIONS {
__dyndbg_sites : ALIGN(8) { *(.gnu.linkonce.dyndbg_site) *(__dyndbg_sites) }
__dyndbg : ALIGN(8) { *(.gnu.linkonce.dyndbg) *(__dyndbg) }
}
KEEP( *(.gnu.linkonce.__dyndbg_site) *(__dyndbg_sites))
3. specialize DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA_CLS as DYNAMIC_DEBUG_TABLE.
This special macro version creates header records, and puts them into
.gnu.linkonce section. Unusually (uniquely?), it is tacitly invoked
by dynamic_debug.h on behalf of all printk.h includers. This can
result in multiple "declarations" in the same scope, so macro uses
__weak and/or __unused to suppress linkage & errors.
This created mumble-RELATIVE linkage errors in a few parts of the
kernel, I worked around this by just suppressing the declaration if
cflags includes -DDYNDBG_NO_TABLE.
The up-link is init'd in 2 cases:
The file static struct _ddebug_info builtins is initialized by
dynamic_debug_init(), with the 3 ELF sections addresses+lengths
composing the builtin dyndbg-state. It will be able to also
initialize the header.UPLINK fields, as long as the storage space is
available. Then rel_map() can rely upon it to provide the &site ref
for a callsite's desc*, if it is enabled.
Then at runtime (assuming initialization is correct):
- use _index to get &descs[0]
- container-of gets .UPLINK to &dyndbg_info
- info->sites[_index] - replaces .sites
- info->sites[_map] - allows de-duplicated vector position. M<N
But thats all talk; this patch just adds and initializes the index and
map fields.
._index:14 allows ~16k entries, more than enough for ~3k built-in
callsites, or ~4k in amdgpu (with dyn-drm-trc commitset). It is
initialized in __ddebug_add_module(), a new refactorization.
ddebug_add_module() is called from kernel/module.c, that interface is
preserved. It just passes 0 to inner fn when loading modules.
