powerpc/xmon: Drop the valid variable completely in dump_segments()

2015-08-12T05:05:47Z

The value of 'valid' is always zero when 'esid' is zero, and if 'esid' is non-zero then the value of 'valid' is irrelevant because we are using logical or in the if expression. In fact 'valid' can be dropped completely from dump_segments() by simply doing the check with SLB_ESID_V directly in the if.

powerpc/xmon: Fix another endiannes issue in RTAS call from xmon

2015-01-18T22:58:16Z

The commit 3b8a3c010969 ("powerpc/pseries: Fix endiannes issue in RTAS call from xmon") was fixing an endianness issue in the call made from xmon to RTAS. However, as Michael Ellerman noticed, this fix was not complete, the token value was not byte swapped. This lead to call an unexpected and most of the time unexisting RTAS function, which is silently ignored by RTAS. This fix addresses this hole.

powerpc/xmon: use isspace/isxdigit/isalnum from linux/ctype.h

2014-12-29T04:45:43Z

isxdigit() macro definition is the same. isalnum() from linux/ctype.h will accept additional latin non-ASCII characters. This is harmless since this macro is used in scanhex() which parses user input. isspace() from linux/ctype.h will accept vertical tab and form feed but not NULL. The use of this macro is modified to accept NULL as well. Additional characters are harmless since this macro is also only used in scanhex().

powerpc/xmon: Enable HW instruction breakpoint on POWER8

2014-12-02T03:23:04Z

This patch enables support for hardware instruction breakpoint in xmon on POWER8 platform with the help of a new register called the CIABR (Completed Instruction Address Breakpoint Register). With this patch, a single hardware instruction breakpoint can be added and cleared during any active xmon debug session. The hardware based instruction breakpoint mechanism works correctly with the existing TRAP based instruction breakpoint available on xmon. There are no powerpc CPU with CPU_FTR_IABR feature any more. This patch has re-purposed all the existing IABR related code to work with CIABR register based HW instruction breakpoint. This has one odd feature, which is that when we hit a breakpoint xmon doesn't tell us we have hit the breakpoint. This is because xmon is expecting bp->address == regs->nip. Because CIABR fires on completition regs->nip points to the instruction after the breakpoint. We could fix that, but it would then confuse other parts of the xmon code which think we need to emulate the instruction. [mpe] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual
