kernel/debug/debug_core.c provides a default kgdb_arch_pc() definition
explicitly marked "weak". Several architectures provide their own
definitions intended to override the default, but the "weak" attribute on
the declaration applied to the arch definitions as well, so the linker
chose one based on link order (see 10629d711e ("PCI: Remove __weak
annotation from pcibios_get_phb_of_node decl")).
Remove the "weak" attribute from the declaration so we always prefer a
non-weak definition over the weak one, independent of link order.

This patch adds a kgdb_nmicallin() interface that can be used by
external NMI handlers to call the KGDB/KDB handler. The primary
need for this is for those types of NMI interrupts where all the
CPUs have already received the NMI signal. Therefore no
send_IPI(NMI) is required, and in fact it will cause a 2nd
unhandled NMI to occur. This generates the "Dazed and Confuzed"
messages.
Since all the CPUs are getting the NMI at roughly the same time,
it's not guaranteed that the first CPU that hits the NMI handler
will manage to enter KGDB and set the dbg_master_lock before the
slaves start entering. The new argument "send_ready" was added
for KGDB to signal the NMI handler to release the slave CPUs for
entry into KGDB.

There's no reason kgdb.h itself needs to include the 8250 serial port
header file. So push it down to the _very_ limited number of individual
drivers that need the values in that file, and fix up the places where
people really wanted serial_core.h and platform_device.h.

This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port
as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the
port is attached to KGDB).
Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able
to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33). This is
because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus
is able to intercept the magic sequence.
Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling
communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully
detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw
console.
Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so
initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger
console:
Type $3#33 to enter the debugger>
For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option,
when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key
press, so the kernel will be printing this:
Hit <return> to enter the debugger>
This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes
nmi_console feature somewhat useless.
And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking
can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

The new arch callback should manage NMIs that usually cause KGDB to
enter. That is, not all NMIs should be enabled/disabled, but only
those that issue kgdb_handle_exception().
We must mask it as serial-line interrupt can be used as an NMI, so
if the original KGDB-entry cause was say a breakpoint, then every
input to KDB console will cause KGDB to reenter, which we don't want.

There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a
kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For
this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all
the way back to 2.6.36.
The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates
writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can
solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint
set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly.
The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional
probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function.
The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break
point removal routine will get called later on.

There is extra state information that needs to be exposed in the
kgdb_bpt structure for tracking how a breakpoint was installed. The
debug_core only uses the the probe_kernel_write() to install
breakpoints, but this is not enough for all the archs. Some arch such
as x86 need to use text_poke() in order to install a breakpoint into a
read only page.
Passing the kgdb_bpt structure to kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() and
kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint() allows other archs to set the type
variable which indicates how the breakpoint was installed.

The kernel debugger can operate well before mm_init(), but the x86
hardware breakpoint code which uses the perf api requires that the
kernel allocators are initialized.
This means the kernel debug core needs to provide an optional arch
specific call back to allow the initialization functions to run after
the kernel has been further initialized.
The kdb shell already had a similar restriction with an early
initialization and late initialization. The kdb_init() was moved into
the debug core's version of the late init which is called
dbg_late_init();

Some kgdb I/O modules require the ability to create a breakpoint
tasklet, such as kgdboc and external modules such as kgdboe. The
breakpoint tasklet is used as an asynchronous entry point into the
debugger which will have a different function scope than the current
execution path where it might not be safe to have an inline
breakpoint. This is true of some of the kgdb I/O drivers which share
code with kgdb and rest of the kernel users.

The only way the debugger can handle a trap in inside rcu_lock,
notify_die, or atomic_notifier_call_chain without a triple fault is
to have a low level "first opportunity handler" in the int3 exception
handler.
Generally this will be something the vast majority of folks will not
need, but for those who need it, it is added as a kernel .config
option called KGDB_LOW_LEVEL_TRAP.

These are the minimum changes to the kgdb core in order to enable an
API to connect a new front end (kdb) to the debug core.
This patch introduces the dbg_kdb_mode variable controls where the
user level I/O is routed. It will be routed to the gdbstub (kgdb) or
to the kdb front end which is a simple shell available over the kgdboc
connection.
You can switch back and forth between kdb or the gdb stub mode of
operation dynamically. From gdb stub mode you can blindly type
"$3#33", or from the kdb mode you can enter "kgdb" to switch to the
gdb stub.
The logic in the debug core depends on kdb to look for the typical gdb
connection sequences and return immediately with KGDB_PASS_EVENT if a
gdb serial command sequence is detected. That should allow a
reasonably seamless transition between kdb -> gdb without leaving the
kernel exception state. The two gdb serial queries that kdb is
responsible for detecting are the "?" and "qSupported" packets.
