Subject: [Crash-utility] [PATCH v6 00/14] gdb stack unwinding support
for crash utility
To: devel(a)lists.crash-utility.osci.io
Cc: Tao Liu <ltao(a)redhat.com>
Message-ID: <20240826035240.14781-1-ltao(a)redhat.com>

This patchset is a rebase/merged version of the following 3 patchsets:
1): [PATCH v10 0/5] Improve stack unwind on ppc64 [1]
2): [PATCH 0/5] x86_64 gdb stack unwinding support [2]
3): Clean up on top of one-thread-v2 [3]
A complete description of gdb stack unwinding support for crash can be
found in [1].
This patchset can be divided into the following 2 parts:
1) part1: arch independent, mainly modify on the
crash_target.c/gdb_interface.c files, in preparation of the
gdb side.
2) part2: arch specific part, for implementing ppc64/x86_64/arm64/vmware
gdb stack unwinding support.
=== part 2
- arm64:
arm64: Add gdb stack unwinding support
- vmware:
vmware_guestdump: Various format versions support
set_context(): check if context is already current
- x86_64:
x86_64: Fix invalid input "=>" for bt command
Fix cpumask_t recursive dependence issue
x86_64: Add gdb stack unwinding support
- ppc64:
ppc64: correct gdb passthroughs by implementing machdep->get_cpu_reg
=== part 1
Stop stack unwinding at non-kernel address
Fix gdb_interface: restore gdb's output streams at end of gdb_interface
Print task pid/command instead of CPU index
Rename get_cpu_reg to get_current_task_reg
Let crash change gdb context
Leave only one gdb thread for crash
Remove 'frame' from prohibited commands list
===
v6 -> v5:
1) Refactor patch 4 & 9, which changed the function signature of struct
get_cpu_reg/get_current_task_reg, and let each patch compile with no
error when added on.
2) Rebased the patchset on top of latest upstream:
("79b93ecb2e72ec Fix a "Bus error" issue caused by 'crash
--osrelease'
or
crash loading")
Thank you for the update, Tao.
I have a few more comments here:
[1] [PATCH v6 04/14]:
+ * Task is active, grab CPU's registers
+ */
+ if (is_task_active(tc->task) && VMSS_DUMPFILE())
+ return vmware_vmss_get_cpu_reg(tc->processor, regno, name,
size, value);
Can you help confirm that it only works for the active task? Is this
expected behavior?
[2] [PATCH v6 07/14]
#ifdef CRASH_MERGE
CORE_ADDR pc = 0;
get_frame_pc_if_available (fi, &pc);
if (!is_kvaddr(pc)) {
printf_filtered (_("Backtrace stopped due to non-kernel addr:
%lx\n"),pc);
fi = NULL;
break;
}
#endif
I would suggest removing the above printf_filtered(...), otherwise it will
be always displayed.

Thanks.
Lianbo
v5 -> v4:
1) Plenty of code refactoring based on Lianbo's comments on v4.
2) Removed the magic number when dealing with regs bitmap, see [6].
3) Rebased the patchset on top of latest upstream:
("1c6da3eaff8207 arm64: Fix bt command show wrong stacktrace on ramdump
source")
v4 -> v3:
Fixed the author issue in [PATCH v3 06/16] Fix gdb_interface: restore gdb's
output streams at end of gdb_interface.
v3 -> v2:
1) Updated CC list as pointed out in [4]
2) Compiling issues as in [5]
v2 -> v1:
1) Added the patch: x86_64: Fix invalid input "=>" for bt command,
thanks for Kazu's testing.
2) Modify the patch: x86_64: Add gdb stack unwinding support, added the
pcp_save, spp_save and sp, for restoring the value in match of the
original
code logic.

Thank you for the update, Tao.
I have a few more comments here:
[1] [PATCH v6 04/14]:
+ * Task is active, grab CPU's registers
+ */
+ if (is_task_active(tc->task) && VMSS_DUMPFILE())
+ return vmware_vmss_get_cpu_reg(tc->processor, regno, name, size,
value);
Can you help confirm that it only works for the active task? Is this expected behavior?
Yes, by reading through the code context, it looks to me the vmss
contains register status for each CPU, which are valid for active
tasks. For those inactive tasks, there is no code to get the registers
from stack frame like the one we deal for normal kernel. So I think it
is safe to code like this.
[2] [PATCH v6 07/14]
#ifdef CRASH_MERGE
CORE_ADDR pc = 0;
get_frame_pc_if_available (fi, &pc);
if (!is_kvaddr(pc)) {
printf_filtered (_("Backtrace stopped due to non-kernel addr:
%lx\n"),pc);
fi = NULL;
break;
}
#endif
I would suggest removing the above printf_filtered(...), otherwise it will be always
displayed.
Hmm... I would suggest to keep the printf_filtered() function. I
encountered cases which nothing get outputted after "crash> gdb bt"
without the printf_filtered(), it is quite misleading because user
have no idea what's going on. With the printf_filtered(), there would
be hints indicating the failure for gdb stack unwinding. To
illustrate:

crash> gdb bt
Backtrace stopped due to non-kernel addr: 0
There are cases whose RIP value is invalid, e.g. NULL or non-kernel
address. Currently the patchset cannot unwind the stack frames based
on the faulty RIP value, and will fail silently without the
printf_filtered(). A "Backtrace stopped due to non-kernel addr: 0"
would be a good hint for user to know the fail reason with the info
combinated with cmd "bt".

I didn't get your point of "different results", which part is different?

Could you please explain why the above changes are needed?
Yes it is needed. For normal kernel, the cpumask_t is initialized in
kernel_init(), for xen_hyper it will not call kernel_init(), so it
should be initialized in xen_hyper_init() before use.

[6] The 'info threads' command only displays the current task, not all known
tasks. And this looks different behavior from the gdb

[7] the 'thread' command can not switch to another task.

Finally I have to do it with 'set' command as below:
crash> set 6297
PID: 6297
COMMAND: "sshd-session"
TASK: c000000057517e80 [THREAD_INFO: c000000057517e80]

STATE: TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
crash> set gdb on
gdb: on
gdb> bt
#0 0xc00000009cd57650 in ?? ()
gdb: gdb request failed: bt
gdb>
Yes, the behaviour is expected to me. Previously crash will
initialized the number of threads same as the cpu number. In fact
there is no need to do that, only one thread for gdb is enough for
crash-use, see the discussion in [1]. The one-thread will act like a
container, when set <pid>, the thread will be filled with task <pid>
context. So there is no need for "thread <id>" to swith thread. Just
"set <pid>" is enough.

In addition, the code is changed, but its patch log is not updated accordingly. Could you
please double check? I won't list them here.
OK will do
Thanks,
Tao Liu
Thanks.
