Subject: [PATCH v7c 14/24] dyndbg-API: fix CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG regression
Date:   Wed, 18 Oct 2023 11:05:54 -0600

DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP() has a design error; it fails a basic K&R
rule: "define once, refer many times".

When DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP() is used across
DRM core & drivers; they all repeat the same classmap-defn args, which
must match for the modules to respond together when DRM.debug
categories are enabled.

Worse, it causes the CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=Y regression; 1st
drm.ko loads, and dyndbg initializes its DRM.debug callsites, then a
drm-driver loads, but too late - it missed the DRM.debug enablement.

So replace it with 2 macros:
  DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE - invoked once from core - drm.ko
  DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE    - from all drm drivers and helpers.

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE: based on DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP, but now it
drops the static on the constructed classmap variable, and exports it
instead.

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE: then refers to the exported var by name:
* used from drivers, helper-mods
* lets us drop the repetitive "classname" args
* fixes 2nd-defn problem
* creates a ddebug_class_user record in new __dyndbg_class_users section
  this allows ddebug_add_module(etal) to handle them per-module.

The distinction, and the usage record, allows dyndbg to initialize the
driver's DRM.debug callsites separately after it is modprobed.

Since DRM now needs updates to use the new macros, it also gets 2
wrappers: DRM_CLASSMAP_DEFINE, DRM_CLASSMAP_USE which declutter the
users by hiding the ifdef CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG.

To review, dyndbg's existing __dyndbg_classes[] section does:

. catalogs the classmaps defined by the module (or builtin modules)
. authorizes dyndbg to >control those class'd prdbgs for the module.
. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE(and old one) creates classmaps in this section.

This patch adds __dyndbg_class_users[] section:

. catalogs uses/references to the classmap definitions.
. authorizes dyndbg to >control those class'd prdbgs in ref'g module.
. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE() creates classmap-user records in this section.

Now ddebug_add_module(etal) can handle classmap-uses like (and after)
classmaps; when a dependent module is loaded, its parent's kernel
params are scanned to find the param wired to dyndbg-param-ops, whose
classmap matches the one ref'd by the client.

To support this, theres a few data/header changes:

. new struct ddebug_class_user
  contains: user-module-name, &classmap-defn
  it records drm-driver's use of a classmap in the section, allowing lookup

struct ddebug_info gets 2 new fields to encapsulate the new section:
  class_users, num_class_users.
  set by dynamic_debug_init() for builtins.
  or by kernel/module/main:load_info() for loadable modules.

vmlinux.lds.h: new BOUNDED_SECTION for __dyndbg_class_users

dynamic_debug.c has 2 changes in ddebug_add_module(), ddebug_change():

ddebug_add_module() already calls ddebug_attach_module_classes()
to handle classmaps DEFINEd by a module, now it also calls
ddebug_attach_user_module_classes() to handle USEd classmaps.  To
avoid this work when possible, 1st scan the module's descriptors and
count the number of class'd pr_debugs.

ddebug_attach_user_module_classes() scans the module's class_users
section, follows the refs to the parent's classmap, and calls
ddebug_apply_params() on each.  It also avoids work by checking the
module's class-ct.

ddebug_apply_params(new fn):

It scans module's/builtin kernel-params, calls ddebug_match_apply_kparam
for each to find the params/sysfs-nodes which may be wired to a classmap.

ddebug_match_apply_kparam(new fn):

1st, it tests the kernel-param.ops is dyndbg's; this guarantees that
the attached arg is a struct ddebug_class_param, which has a ref to
the param's state, and to the classmap defining the param's handling.

2nd, it requires that the classmap ref'd by the kparam is the one
we're called for; modules can use many separate classmaps (as
test_dynamic_debug does).

Then apply the "parent" kparam's setting to the dependent module,
using ddebug_apply_class_bitmap().

ddebug_change(and callees) also gets adjustments:

ddebug_find_valid_class(): This does a search over the module's
classmaps, looking for the class FOO echo'd to >control.  So now it
searches over __dyndbg_class_users[] after __dyndbg_classes[].

ddebug_class_name(): return class-names for defined AND used classes.

test_dynamic_debug.c, test_dynamic_debug_submod.c:

This (already) demonstrates the 2 types of classmaps & sysfs-params,
following the 4-part recipe:

1. define an enum for the classmap: DRM.debug has DRM_UT_{CORE,KMS,...}
   multiple classes must share 0-62 classid space.
2. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE(.. DRM_UT_{CORE,KMS,...})
3. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_PARAM* (classmap)
4. DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE()
   by _submod only, skipping 2,3

Move all the enum declarations together, to better explain how they
share the 0..62 class-id space available to a module (non-overlapping
subranges).

reorg macros 2,3 by name.  This gives a tabular format, making it easy
to see the pattern of repetition, and the points of change.

And extend the test to replicate the 2-module (parent & dependent)
scenario which caused the CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y regression
seen in drm & drivers.

The _submod.c is a 2-line file: #define _SUBMOD, #include parent.

This gives identical complements of prdbgs in parent & _submod, and
thus identical print behavior when all of: >control, >params, and
parent->_submod propagation are working correctly.

It also puts all the parent/_submod declarations together in the same
source, with the new ifdef _SUBMOD block invoking DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE
for the 2 test-interfaces.  I think this is clearer.

These 2 modules are independently configurable, allowing builtin
parent and loadable submod, which recapitulates a troublesome build
combo for drm & drivers.

DEBUG details:

``#define DEBUG`` in src enables all pr_debugs after it, including any
class'd pr_debugs; its not necessarily all-or-nothing, unless its a
one-file-module with DEBUG at the top.

If a CLASSMAP_PARAM is defined on a classmap, its readback value
cannot describe the set of enablements.  The param is basically
write-only; it cannot know if `echo $cmd >control` was done since.

To know the exact pr-debug state with certainty, toggle to both:

   echo 0x3ff > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
   echo 0     > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
