2008-01-30x86, ptrace: add bts_struct size to status commandMarkus Metzger
Return the size of bts_struct in the PTRACE_BTS_STATUS command. Change types to u32. Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-01-30x86, ptrace: add buffer size checksMarkus Metzger
Pass the buffer size for (most) ptrace commands that pass user-allocated buffers and check that size before accessing the buffer. Unfortunately, PTRACE_BTS_GET already uses all 4 parameters. Commands that access user buffers return the number of bytes or records read or written.

2008-01-30x86, ptrace: support 32bit-cross-64bit BTS recordingMarkus Metzger
Support BTS recording of 32bit and 64bit tasks from 32bit or 64bit tasks. Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86, ptrace: rlimit BTS buffer allocationMarkus Metzger
Check the rlimit of the tracing task for total and locked memory when allocating the BTS buffer. Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace generic requestsRoland McGrath
This removes duplicated code by calling the generic ptrace_request and compat_ptrace_request functions for the things they already handle. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 core dump TLSRoland McGrath
This makes ELF core dumps of 32-bit processes include a new note type NT_386_TLS (0x200) giving the contents of the TLS slots in struct user_desc format. This lets post mortem examination figure out what the segment registers mean like the debugger does with get_thread_area on a live process.

2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace user_regsetRoland McGrath
This cleans up the PTRACE_*REGS* request code so each one is just a simple call to copy_regset_to_user or copy_regset_from_user. The ptrace layouts already match the user_regset formats (core dump formats). Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 user_regset_viewRoland McGrath
This defines task_user_regset_view and the tables describing the x86 user_regset layouts for 32 and 64. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 user_regset general regsRoland McGrath
This adds accessor functions in the user_regset style for the general registers (struct user_regs_struct). Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 i387 user_regsetRoland McGrath
This revamps the i387 code to be shared across 32-bit, 64-bit, and 32-on-64. It does so by consolidating the code in one place based on the user_regset accessor interfaces. This switches 32-bit to using the i387_64.h header and 64-bit to using the i387.c that was previously i387_32.c, but that's what took the least cleanup in each file. Here i387.h is stubbed to always include i387_64.h rather than renaming the file, to keep this diff smaller and easier to read.

2008-01-30x86, ptrace: new ptrace BTS APIMarkus Metzger
Here's the new ptrace BTS API that supports two different overflow handling mechanisms (wrap-around and buffer-full-signal) to support two different use cases (debugging and profiling). It further combines buffer allocation and configuration. Opens: - memory rlimit - overflow signal What would be the right signal to use?

2008-01-30x86, ptrace: change BTS GET ptrace interfaceMarkus Metzger
Change the ptrace interface to mimick an array from newst to oldest. Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86, ptrace: use jiffies for BTS timestampsMarkus Metzger
Replace sched_clock() with jiffies for BTS timestamps. Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86, ptrace: support for branch trace store(BTS)Markus Metzger
Resend using different mail client Changes to the last version: - split implementation into two layers: ds/bts and ptrace - renamed TIF's - save/restore ds save area msr in __switch_to_xtra() - make block-stepping only look at BTF bit Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 ia32 ptrace arch mergeRoland McGrath
This moves the sys32_ptrace code into arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c, verbatim except for a few hard-coded sizes replaced with sizeof. Here this code can use the shared local functions in this file. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 ia32 ptrace getreg/putreg mergeRoland McGrath
This reimplements the 64-bit IA32-emulation register access functions in arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c, where they can share some guts with the native access functions directly. These functions are not used yet, but this paves the way to move IA32 ptrace support into this file to share its local functions.

2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace merge syscall traceRoland McGrath
This moves the 64-bit syscall tracing functions into ptrace.c, so that ptrace_64.c becomes entirely obsolete. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace arch mergeRoland McGrath
This adds 64-bit support to arch_ptrace in arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c, so this function can be used for native ptrace on both 32 and 64. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace getreg/putreg mergeRoland McGrath
This merges 64-bit support into the low-level register access functions in arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c, paving the way to share this file between 32-bit and 64-bit builds.

2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace getreg/putreg cleanupRoland McGrath
This cleans up the getreg/putreg functions to move the special cases (segment registers and eflags) out into their own subroutines. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: ptrace FLAG_MASK cleanupRoland McGrath

2008-01-30x86: ptrace_32 renamedRoland McGrath
