Subject: [Crash-utility] [PATCH v4 08/16] ppc64: correct gdb
passthroughs by implementing machdep->get_cpu_reg

From: Aditya Gupta <adityag@linux.ibm.com>
Currently, gdb passthroughs of 'bt', 'frame', 'up', 'down', 'info
locals' don't work. This is due to gdb not knowing the register values to
unwind the stack frames
Every gdb passthrough goes through `gdb_interface`. And then, gdb expects
`crash_target::fetch_registers` to give it the register values, which is
dependent on `machdep->get_cpu_reg` to read the register values for
specific architecture.
----------------------------
gdb passthrough (eg. "bt") | |
crash -------------------------> | |
| gdb_interface |
| |
| |
| ---------------------- |
fetch_registers | | | |
crash_target<-------------------------+--| gdb | |
--------------------------+->| | |
Registers (SP,NIP, etc.)| | | |
| | | |
| ---------------------- |
----------------------------
Implement `machdep->get_cpu_reg` on PPC64, so that crash provides the
register values to gdb to unwind stack frames properly
With these changes, on powerpc, 'bt' command output in gdb mode, will look
like this:
gdb> bt
#0 0xc0000000002a53e8 in crash_setup_regs (oldregs=<optimized out>, newregs=0xc00000000486f8d8) at ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/kexec.h:69

#6 0xc00000000069a7bc in pde_write (ppos=<optimized out>, count=<optimized out>, buf=<optimized out>, file=<optimized out>, pde=0xc000000009ed3a80) at fs/proc/inode.c:340

#8 0xc0000000005b3bbc in vfs_write (file=file@entry=0xc00000009dda7d00, buf=buf@entry=0xebcfc7c6040 <error: Cannot access memory at address 0xebcfc7c6040>, count=count@entry=2, pos=pos@entry=0xc00000000486fda0) at fs/read_write.c:582
instead of earlier output without this patch:
gdb> bt
#0 <unavailable> in ?? ()
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
Also, 'get_dumpfile_regs' has been introduced to get registers from
multiple supported vmcore formats. Correspondingly a flag 'BT_NO_PRINT_REGS'
has been introduced to tell helper functions to get registers, to not
print registers with every call to backtrace in gdb.
Note: This feature to support GDB unwinding doesn't support live debugging

Is it possible to move the regnum definitions to ppc64.c? I did not see them used in other modules. But, not sure if there are any compilation issues, I haven't tried it.

The above switch-case code block can be defined as a new static function to check the validity of regnum, for example:
static int sanity_check_regs(int regno)
And then it can be invoked in the current function. Just an idea, maybe this looks more concise and readable. Any thoughts?

Could you please explain why the need_free is used to determine if it should jump into the get_all code block? The flag looks very strange, or is there any another solution?
