2020-07-09riscv: Fix "no previous prototype" compile warning in kgdb.c fileVincent Chen
Some functions are only used in the kgdb.c file. Add static properities to these functions to avoid "no previous prototype" compile warnings Signed-off-by: Vincent Chen <vincent.chen@sifive.com> Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>
2020-06-18maccess: rename probe_kernel_address to get_kernel_nofaultChristoph Hellwig
Better describe what this helper does, and match the naming of copy_from_kernel_nofault. Also switch the argument order around, so that it acts and looks like get_user(). Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2020-05-18riscv: Add SW single-step support for KDBVincent Chen
In KGDB, the GDB in the host is responsible for the single-step operation of the software. In other words, KGDB does not need to derive the next pc address when performing a software single-step operation. KGDB just inserts the break instruction at the indicated address according to the GDB instructions. This approach does not work in KDB because the GDB does not involve the KDB process. Therefore, this patch provides KDB a software single-step mechanism to use. Signed-off-by: Vincent Chen <vincent.chen@sifive.com> Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>
2020-05-18riscv: Use the XML target descriptions to report 3 system registersVincent Chen
The $status, $badaddr, and $cause registers belong to the thread context, so KGDB can obtain their contents from pt_regs in each trap. However, the sequential number of these registers in the gdb register list is far from the general-purpose registers. If riscv port uses the existing method to report these three registers, many trivial registers with sequence numbers in the middle of them will also be packaged to the reply packets. To solve this problem, the riscv port wants to introduce the GDB target description mechanism to customize the reported register list. By the list, the KGDB can ignore the intermediate registers and just reports the general-purpose registers and these three system registers.
