From: LiuHailong <liu.hailo...@zte.com.cn> Debug interrupts can be taken during regular program or a standard interrupt, the EA of the instruction causing the interrupt will be kept in DSRR0. Kernel will check if this value is between [interrupt_base_book3e, __end_interrupts]. However, when the kernel build with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE, it can't get EA of those lables by LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r14,interrupt_base_book3e) and LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r15,__end_interrupts),then it cases problems later. At the same time, r2(toc) are not usable here, so LOAD_REG_ADDR() dosen't work neither. So we use the *name@got* to get the EV of two lables directly. This patch can fix the problem and remove the oops when we gdb a program with single-step.
Test programs test.c shows as follows: #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { if (access("/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid", F_OK) == -1) printf("Kernel doesn't have perf_event support\n"); } Steps to reproduce the bug, for example: 1) ./gdb ./test 2) (gdb) b access 3) (gdb) r 4) (gdb) s Then will trigger the oops, it looks like: (gdb) s Single stepping Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#2] PREEMPT CoreNet Generic Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1135 Comm: test Tainted: G D Linux (none) 4.9.5 #79 task: c000000079199580 ti: c00000007ffc4000 task.ti: c000000074064000 NIP: c00000000001a1e4 LR: 000000001000103c CTR: 000000001000100c REGS: c00000007ffc7cf0 TRAP: 0d08 Tainted: G D (Linux (none) 4.9.5) MSR: 0000000080021000 <CE,ME> CR: 24000442 XER: 00000000 SOFTE: 1 GPR00: 0000000010001274 00000000ffffeba0 00000000100ab4b0 00000000100764a4 GPR04: 0000000000000000 00000000ffffee2c 00000000ffffee54 00000000100a44c8 GPR08: 0000000000000001 0000000010070000 00000000100a0000 0000000000000001 GPR12: 000000004347432f 00000000100aa648 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR16: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR20: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR24: 0000000000000000 0000000010001950 0000000010001850 0000000000000000 GPR28: 0000000000000000 00000000100000f4 0000000000000000 00000000ffffeba0 NIP [c00000000001a1e4] interrupt_base_book3e+0x1e4/0x348 LR [000000001000103c] 0x1000103c Call Trace: Instruction dump: 00000000 00000000 00000000 60000000 4800e600 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 60000000 <4800e588> 00000000 00000000 00000000 Signed-off-by: Liu Hailong <liu.hailo...@zte.com.cn> Signed-off-by: Jiang Xuexin <jiang.xue...@zte.com.cn> Reviewed-by: Jiang Biao <jiang.bi...@zte.com.cn> Reviewed-by: Liu Song <liu.son...@zte.com.cn> Reviewed-by: Huang Jian <huang.j...@zte.com.cn> --- arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) mode change 100644 => 100755 arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S b/arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S old mode 100644 new mode 100755 index 38a1f96..ca03eb2 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S @@ -735,8 +735,14 @@ END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(CPU_FTR_ALTIVEC) andis. r15,r14,(DBSR_IC|DBSR_BT)@h beq+ 1f +#ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE + ld r15,PACATOC(r13) + ld r14,interrupt_base_book3e@got(r15) + ld r15,__end_interrupts@got(r15) +#else LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r14,interrupt_base_book3e) LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r15,__end_interrupts) +#endif cmpld cr0,r10,r14 cmpld cr1,r10,r15 blt+ cr0,1f @@ -799,8 +805,14 @@ kernel_dbg_exc: andis. r15,r14,(DBSR_IC|DBSR_BT)@h beq+ 1f +#ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE + ld r15,PACATOC(r13) + ld r14,interrupt_base_book3e@got(r15) + ld r15,__end_interrupts@got(r15) +#else LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r14,interrupt_base_book3e) LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r15,__end_interrupts) +#endif cmpld cr0,r10,r14 cmpld cr1,r10,r15 blt+ cr0,1f -- 1.7.1
