[RFC PATCH v6 17/34] dyndbg: add _index to struct _ddebug

From: Jim Cromie
Date: Sat May 29 2021 - 16:03:00 EST


we have: dp->site doing mapping: &__dyndbgs[N] -> &__dyndbg_sites[N].

We want to drop site, and do an indirect "up-over-down" maneuver (or
"back-over-and-map") to access sites[N]; this new _ddebug._index field
is that "N" above. This is a debug/unlikely path, so access cost is
unimportant compared to memory savings.

Once we can go from any N to 0, we have &array, and can use it in
container_of(), along with array-member name, to get the containing
struct (which doesnt exist yet).

The ._index is free, from unused padding in struct _ddebug (at least
on 64 bit machines). This commit just adds the ._index member, and
initializes it. That job falls to ddebug_add_module(). 2 cases:

loadable modules: ddebug_add_module( &whole-elf-section )
builtin modules: ddebug_add_module( &slice-of-DATA ), iteratively.

Previously, it didnt care which slice of "__dyndbgs" it was working,
but now we need to know the origin of the allocated memory, to
initialize our way back to it. Simplest way is to pass in the base
index of the current slice.

Since ddebug_add_module() is used indirectly by module.c, the new arg
is hidden in __ddebug_add_module(), and defaults to 0 in the wrapper.
