sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:29+00:00

We are going to split  out of , which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder  file that just
maps to  to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Merge tag 'for_linux-3.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/kgdb

2013-03-02T16:31:39+00:00

Pull KGDB/KDB fixes and cleanups from Jason Wessel:
 "For a change we removed more code than we added.  If people aren't
  using it we shouldn't be carrying it.  :-)

  Cleanups:
   - Remove kdb ssb command - there is no in kernel disassembler to
     support it

   - Remove kdb ll command - Always caused a kernel oops and there were
     no bug reports so no one was using this command

   - Use kernel ARRAY_SIZE macro instead of array computations

  Fixes:
   - Stop oops in kdb if user executes kdb_defcmd with args

   - kdb help command truncated text

   - ppc64 support for kgdbts

   - Add missing kconfig option from original kdb port for dealing with
     catastrophic kernel crashes such that you can reboot automatically
     on continue from kdb"

kdb: Setup basic kdb state before invoking commands via kgdb

2013-03-02T14:52:17+00:00

Although invasive kdb commands are not supported via kgdb, some useful
non-invasive commands like bt* require basic kdb state to be setup before
calling into the kdb code. Factor out some of this code and call it before
and after executing kdb commands via kgdb.

kgdb: remove #include from kgdb.h

2013-02-04T23:35:26+00:00

There's no reason kgdb.h itself needs to include the 8250 serial port
header file.  So push it down to the _very_ limited number of individual
drivers that need the values in that file, and fix up the places where
people really wanted serial_core.h and platform_device.h.

kgdb,debug-core,gdbstub: Hook the reboot notifier for debugger detach

2012-03-22T20:07:15+00:00

The gdbstub and kdb should get detached if the system is rebooting.
Calling gdbstub_exit() will set the proper debug core state and send a
message to any debugger that is connected to correctly detach.

An attached debugger will receive the exit code from
include/linux/reboot.h based on SYS_HALT, SYS_REBOOT, etc...

kgdb: Respect that flush op is optional

2012-03-22T20:07:15+00:00

Not all kgdb I/O drivers implement a flush operation. Adjust
gdbstub_exit accordingly.

kdb,kgdb: Implement switch and pass buffer from kdb -> gdb

2011-08-01T18:23:59+00:00

When switching from kdb mode to kgdb mode packets were getting lost
depending on the size of the fifo queue of the serial chip.  When gdb
initially connects if it is in kdb mode it should entirely send any
character buffer over to the gdbstub when switching connections.

Previously kdb was zero'ing out the character buffer and this could
lead to gdb failing to connect at all, or a lengthy pause could occur
on the initial connect.

KGDB: Notify GDB of machine halt, reboot or power off

2011-03-18T16:54:31+00:00

Notify GDB of the machine halting, rebooting or powering off by sending it an
exited command (remote protocol command 'W').  This is done by calling:

	void gdbstub_exit(int status)

from the arch's machine_{halt,restart,power_off}() functions with an
appropriate exit status to be reported to GDB.
