[PATCH v7 00/25] fix DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y regression

From: Jim Cromie
Date: Thu Oct 12 2023 - 13:21:24 EST


hi Jason, DRM-folk

This patchest fixes the chicken-egg initialization problem in the 1st
version of ddebug-class-maps, that DRM-CI uncovered.

The root-problem was DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP, which broke the K&R rule:
"define once, refer many". In patch 14 it is replaced by:

DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE - define and export a struct ddebug_class_map
DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE - ref the exported struct

test-dynamic-debug is also extended with a -submod.ko, in order to
recapitulate the drm & drivers initialization scenario.

They're on v6.6-rc5 now, and apply cleanly to drm-tip/drm-tip.

Ive been running recent revs on rc3+, on my desktop and laptop.

The final blocker was a missing __align(8) on the ddebug_class_user
record inserted by DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_USE. This caused DRM=y (builtin
only) to have a corrupt record for drm_kms_helper (builtin dependent).
Curiously, a clang build did not exhibit this problem.

Heres a part of dmesg, for a DRM=y kernel, booted with
dynamic_debug.verbose=3 drm.debug=0x10

Widespread testing is appreciated.
I have scripts if anyone wants them.

I'll forward lkp-robot reports here when I get them.
