[PATCH v2 00/20] DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG regression

Hi everyone,

DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y has a regression enabling drm.debug in drivers

It is due to a chicken-egg problem loading modules; on `modprobe
i915`, drm is loaded 1st, and drm/parameters/debug is set.  When
drm_debug_enabled() tested it at runtime, things just worked.

But with DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, the runtime test is replaced with a
post-insmod enablement of drm_dbg/dyndbg callsites, via dyndbg's
callback on __drm_debug.  So with drm.ko loaded before the dependent
modules, their debug callsites arent present to be enabled.

OVERVIEW

As Jani Nikula noted rather more gently, DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP is
error-prone enough to call broken: it relied upon identical classmap
definitions in all modules using DRM_UT_*.  IOW, it muddled the K&R
distinction between a (single) definition, and multiple references.

So 4 patches here split it into:

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE	used once per subsystem to define each classmap.
DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE	declare dependence on a DEFINEd classmap.

This makes the weird coordinated-changes-by-identical-classmaps
"feature" unnecessary.

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE initializes the classmap, stores it into the
(existing) __dyndbg_classes section, and exports the struct var
(unlike DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP).

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE initializes a class-ref struct, containing the
user-module-name, and a ref to the exported classmap var.

The distinction allows separate treatment of classmaps and
classmap-refs, the latter getting additional behavior to propagate
class'd prdbg settings to modules being loaded.

Consider i915.ko, a DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USEr: due to dependencies,
`modprobe drm debug=$val` is done 1st.  For DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y,
drm.debug=$val invokes dyndbg's kparam callback, which applies "class
DRM_UT_*" >controls as given by the bits.  But i915.ko isn't modprobed
yet, so misses those >controls.  These must be 're-delivered' when
i915 is modprobed.

Recapitulating ddebug_attach_module_classes(1) for (existing) classes;
ddebug_attach_client_module_classes(2) does this for (new) class-refs,
as they are found when modprobing drm-drivers.

2 calls ddebug_apply_parents_params(3) on each referred classmap defn.

3 scans kernel-params owned by the module DEFINEing the classmap,
either builtin or loadable, calls ddebug_match_apply_kparam(4) on each.

4 finds those kparams wired to dyndbg's param-ops, which are therefore
castable to struct ddebug_class_param, and have a ref to the classmap
that they "control".  So 4 finds classmap definitions whose owner
matches the user-module being loaded, and applies the kparam's state
(__drm_debug in this case) by calling ddebug_apply_class_bitmap().

test_dynamic_debug is extended to recreate DRM's multi-module
regression, it builds both test_dynamic_debug.ko and _submod.ko, with
an ifdef to _DEFINE in the main module, and _USE in the submod.  This
gives both modules identical set of prdbgs, which is helpful for
humans comparing results.

It is still WIP, but Daniel Vetter inquired, so I figured Id send what I got.

The series ends in an RFC patch; __jump_label_patch can "crash the
box" when the jump-entry is in the wrong state.  The code makes no
distinction between a well-formed "toggled" state and "insane".  This
patch gets me past some mis-initialization problem Im still probing.

Things seem to be mostly working.
