Subject: [v4][PATCH 0/7] powerpc/book3e: powerpc/book3e: make kgdb to work well

This patchset is used to support kgdb/gdb on book3e.

Validated on p4080ds and p5040ds with test single step and breakpoint

v4:

* use DEFINE_PER_CPU to allocate kgdb's thread_info
* add patch 7 to make usre copy thread_info only !__check_irq_replay
* leave "andi. r14,r11,MSR_PR" out of "#ifndef CONFIG_KGDB"
since cr0 is still used lately.
* retest

v3:

* make work when enable CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
* fix one typo in patch,
"powerpc/book3e: store critical/machine/debug exception thread info":
ld r1,PACAKSAVE(r13);
-> ld r14,PACAKSAVE(r13);
* remove copying the thread_info since booke and book3e always copy
the thead_info now when we enter the debug exception, and so drop
the v2 patch, "book3e/kgdb: Fix a single stgep case of lazy IRQ"

v2:

* Make sure we cover CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E_64 safely
* Use LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() to load properly
the value of the constant expression in load debug exception stack
* Copy thread infor form the kernel stack coming from usr
* Rebase latest powerpc git tree

v1:
* Copy thread info only when we are from !user mode since we'll get kernel stack
coming from usr directly.
* remove save/restore EX_R14/EX_R15 since DBG_EXCEPTION_PROLOG already covered
this.
* use CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() conveniently to get thread.
* fix some typos
* add a patch to make sure gdb can generate a single step properly to invoke a
kgdb state.
* add a patch to if we need to replay an interrupt, we shouldn't restore that
previous backup thread info to make sure we can replay an interrupt lately
with a proper thread info.
* rebase latest powerpc git tree

v0:
This patchset is used to support kgdb for book3e.

Subject: [v4][PATCH 3/7] book3e/kgdb: update thread's dbcr0

gdb always need to generate a single step properly to invoke
a kgdb state. But with lazy interrupt, book3e can't always
trigger a debug exception with a single step since the current
is blocked for handling those pending exception, then we miss
that expected dbcr configuration at last to generate a debug
exception.

So here we also update thread's dbcr0 to make sure the current
can go back with that missed dbcr0 configuration.

Subject: [v4][PATCH 7/7] book3e/kgdb: Fix a single stgep case of lazy IRQ

When we're in kgdb_singlestep(), we have to work around to get
thread_info by copying from the kernel stack before calling
kgdb_handle_exception(), then copying it back afterwards.

But for PPC64, we have a lazy interrupt implementation. So after
copying thread info frome kernle stack, if we need to replay an
interrupt, we shouldn't restore that previous backup thread info
to make sure we can replay an interrupt lately with a proper
thread info.

This patch use __check_irq_replay() to guarantee this process.

Subject: [v4][PATCH 5/7] kgdb/kgdbts: support ppc64

We can't look up the address of the entry point of the function simply
via that function symbol for all architectures.

For PPC64 ABI, actually there is a function descriptors structure.

A function descriptor is a three doubleword data structure that contains
the following values:
* The first doubleword contains the address of the entry point of
the function.
* The second doubleword contains the TOC base address for
the function.
* The third doubleword contains the environment pointer for
languages such as Pascal and PL/1.

So we should call a wapperred dereference_function_descriptor() to get
the address of the entry point of the function.

Note this is also safe for other architecture after refer to
"include/asm-generic/sections.h" since:

dereference_function_descriptor(p) always is (p) if without arched definition.

Use DEFINE_PER_CPU to allocate thread_info statically instead of kmalloc().
This can avoid introducing more memory check codes.
