it's in the way even more. Basicly: remove all alpha specific console
support from gfb(4), sio(4) and syscons(4). Rewrite the alpha console
initialization to be identical to all other platforms. In a nutshell:
call cninit().
The platform specific code now only sets or clears RB_SERIAL and thus
automaticly causes the right console to be selected.
sio.c:
o Replace the remote GDB hacks and use the GDB debug port interface
instead.
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Call kdb_alt_break() instead of db_alt_break().
o Call kdb_enter() instead of breakpoint().
o Remove the ugly compatibility of using the console as the debug
port.
debugger is not active. The fixes breakages of DELAY() when
running in the debugger, because not calling getit() when the
debugger is active yields a DELAY that doesn't.
o s/ddb_on_nmi/kdb_on_nmi/g
o Rename sysctl machdep.ddb_on_nmi to machdep.kdb_on_nmi
o Make debugging support conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Call kdb_reenter() when kdb_active is non-zero.
o Call kdb_trap() to enter the debugger when not already active.
o Update comments accordingly.
o Remove misplaced prototype of kdb_trap().
associated with a PR_ADDR protocol, make sure to update the m_nextpkt
pointer of the new head mbuf on the chain to point to the next record.
Otherwise, when we release the socket buffer mutex, the socket buffer
mbuf chain may be in an inconsistent state.
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o s/WITNESS_DDB/WITNESS_KDB/g
o s/witness_ddb/witness_kdb/g
o Rename the debug.witness_ddb sysctl to debug.witness_kdb.
o Call kdb_backtrace() instead of backtrace().
o Call kdb_enter() instead Debugger().
o Assert kdb_active instead of db_active.
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Call kdb_enter() instead of Debugger().
o Call kdb_backtrace() instead of db_print_backtrace() or backtrace().
kern_mutex.c:
o Replace checks for db_active with checks for kdb_active and make
them unconditional.
kern_shutdown.c:
o s/DDB_UNATTENDED/KDB_UNATTENDED/g
o s/DDB_TRACE/KDB_TRACE/g
o Save the TID of the thread doing the kernel dump so the debugger
knows which thread to select as the current when debugging the
kernel core file.
o Clear kdb_active instead of db_active and do so unconditionally.
o Remove backtrace() implementation.
kern_synch.c:
o Call kdb_reenter() instead of db_error().
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Call kdb_enter() instead of Debugger().
o Remove local (static) variable in_debugger. Use kdb_active instead.
o Call kdb_enter() instead of breakpoint().
o Call kdb_alt_break() instead of db_alt_break().
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Call kdb_alt_break() instead of db_alt_break().
o Call kdb_enter() instead of breakpoint().
o Call kdb_enter() instead of Debugger().
o Don't make such calls conditional upon KDB instead of DDB because
they're already conditional upon EN_DEBUG.
o Use kdb_alt_break() to handle the alternate break sequence instead
of handcoding it here.
o Remove GDB kluges to make this driver work with the pre-KDB remote
GDB code.
o Call kdb_enter() instead of Debugger().
Note that with this commit the dcons(4) driver cannot be used for
remote debugging anymore. This driver has to use the new GDB debug
port interface instead. Such has not been done yet.
a PCB from a trapframe for purposes of unwinding the stack. The PCB
is used as the thread context and all but the thread that entered the
debugger has a valid PCB.
This function can also be used to create a context for the threads
running on the CPUs that have been stopped when the debugger got
entered. This however is not done at the time of this commit.
in particular not without removing the options they replace or in the
proper location in this file. The purpose of this commit is to make it
possible to commit changes in parts without causing massive build
breakages. At least, that's the intend. I have no idea if it actually
works out as I hope...
in which multiple (presumably different) debugger backends can be
configured and which provides basic services to those backends.
Besides providing services to backends, it also serves as the single
point of contact for any and all code that wants to make use of the
debugger functions, such as entering the debugger or handling of the
alternate break sequence. For this purpose, the frontend has been
made non-optional.
All debugger requests are forwarded or handed over to the current
backend, if applicable. Selection of the current backend is done by
the debug.kdb.current sysctl. A list of configured backends can be
obtained with the debug.kdb.available sysctl. One can enter the
debugger by writing to the debug.kdb.enter sysctl.
backend improves over the old GDB support in the following ways:
o Unified implementation with minimal MD code.
o A simple interface for devices to register themselves as debug
ports, ala consoles.
o Compression by using run-length encoding.
o Implements GDB threading support.
consequently the exponent is only 11 bits. Testing whether the
exponent equals 32767 in that case only effects to compiler warnings
and thus build breakage.
Add copyiniov() which copies a struct iovec array in from userland into
a malloc'ed struct iovec. Caller frees.
Change uiofromiov() to malloc the uio (caller frees) and name it
copyinuio() which is more appropriate.
Add cloneuio() which returns a malloc'ed copy. Caller frees.
Use them throughout.
