From 7ae85dc7687c7e7119053d83d02c560ea217b772 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Doug Anderson Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2015 18:26:49 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: 8425/1: kgdb: Don't try to stop the machine when setting breakpoints In (23a4e40 arm: kgdb: Handle read-only text / modules) we moved to using patch_text() to set breakpoints so that we could handle the case when we had CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. That patch used patch_text(). Unfortunately, patch_text() assumes that we're not in atomic context when it runs since it needs to grab a mutex and also wait for other CPUs to stop (which it does with a completion). This would result in a stack crawl if you had CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP and tried to set a breakpoint in kgdb. The crawl looked something like: BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0/0x00010007 CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.2.0-rc7-00133-geb63b34 #1073 Hardware name: Rockchip (Device Tree) (unwind_backtrace) from [] (show_stack+0x20/0x24) (show_stack) from [] (dump_stack+0x84/0xb8) (dump_stack) from [] (__schedule_bug+0x54/0x6c) (__schedule_bug) from [] (__schedule+0x80/0x668) (__schedule) from [] (schedule+0xb8/0xd4) (schedule) from [] (schedule_timeout+0x2c/0x234) (schedule_timeout) from [] (wait_for_common+0xf4/0x188) (wait_for_common) from [] (wait_for_completion+0x20/0x24) (wait_for_completion) from [] (__stop_cpus+0x58/0x70) (__stop_cpus) from [] (stop_cpus+0x3c/0x54) (stop_cpus) from [] (__stop_machine+0xcc/0xe8) (__stop_machine) from [] (stop_machine+0x34/0x44) (stop_machine) from [] (patch_text+0x28/0x34) (patch_text) from [] (kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint+0x40/0x4c) (kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint) from [] (kgdb_validate_break_address+0x2c/0x60) (kgdb_validate_break_address) from [] (dbg_set_sw_break+0x1c/0xdc) (dbg_set_sw_break) from [] (gdb_serial_stub+0x9c4/0xba4) (gdb_serial_stub) from [] (kgdb_cpu_enter+0x1f8/0x60c) (kgdb_cpu_enter) from [] (kgdb_handle_exception+0x19c/0x1d0) (kgdb_handle_exception) from [] (kgdb_compiled_brk_fn+0x30/0x3c) (kgdb_compiled_brk_fn) from [] (do_undefinstr+0x1a4/0x20c) (do_undefinstr) from [] (__und_svc_finish+0x0/0x34) It turns out that when we're in kgdb all the CPUs are stopped anyway so there's no reason we should be calling patch_text(). We can instead directly call __patch_text() which assumes that CPUs have already been stopped.
