37f86b469d kdb,kgdb: Allow arbitrary kgdb magic knock sequences
The first packet that gdb sends when the kernel is in kdb mode seems
to change with every release of gdb.  Instead of continuing to add
many different gdb packets, change kdb to automatically look for any
thing that looks like a gdb packet.

Example 1 cold start test:
echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger
$D#44+

Example 2 cold start test:
echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger
$3#33

The second one should re-enter kdb's shell right away and is purely a
test.

f679c4985b kdb,kgdb: Implement switch and pass buffer from kdb -> gdb
When switching from kdb mode to kgdb mode packets were getting lost
depending on the size of the fifo queue of the serial chip.  When gdb
initially connects if it is in kdb mode it should entirely send any
character buffer over to the gdbstub when switching connections.

Previously kdb was zero'ing out the character buffer and this could
lead to gdb failing to connect at all, or a lengthy pause could occur
on the initial connect.

931ea24819 kdb: fix per_cpu command to remove supress mask
Rusty pointed out that the per_cpu command uses up lots of space on
the stack and the cpu supress mask is probably not needed.

This patch removes the need for the supress mask as well as fixing up
the following problems with the kdb per_cpu command:
  * The per_cpu command should allow an address as an argument
  * When you have more data than can be displayed on one screen allow
    the user to break out of the print loop.

495363d380 kdb,debug_core: adjust master cpu switch logic against new debug_core locking
The kdb shell needs to enforce switching back to the original CPU that
took the exception before restoring normal kernel execution.  Resuming
from a different CPU than what took the original exception will cause
problems with spin locks that are freed from the a different processor
than had taken the lock.

The special logic in dbg_cpu_switch() can go away entirely with
because the state of what cpus want to be masters or slaves will
remain unchanged between entry and exit of the debug_core exception
context.

Nothing should try to use kdb_commands directly as sometimes it is
null.  Instead, use the for_each_kdbcmd() iterator.

This particular problem dates back to the initial kdb merge (2.6.35),

b590cddfa6 kdb: fix compile error without CONFIG_KALLSYMS
If CONFIG_KGDB_KDB is set and CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set the kernel
will fail to build with the error:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_next':

kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_complete':
kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:193: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms'

The kdb_walk_kallsyms needs a #ifdef proper header to match the C
implementation.  This patch also fixes the compiler warnings in
kdb_support.c when compiling without CONFIG_KALLSYMS set.  The
compiler warnings are a result of the kallsyms_lookup() macro not
initializing the two of the pass by reference variables.

ada64e4c98 kgdboc,keyboard: Keyboard driver for kdb with kgdb
This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver.  This was mostly a
direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against
checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb.

This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard.

All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the
keyboard is done via kgdboc.

If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you
would add to your kernel command arguments:

    kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait

If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use:

    kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0

You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with
the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb.

Turn it on:
    echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

Turn it off:
    echo "" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

a0de055cf6 kgdb: gdb "monitor" -> kdb passthrough
One of the driving forces behind integrating another front end (kdb)
to the debug core is to allow front end commands to be accessible via
gdb's monitor command.  It is true that you could write gdb macros to
get certain data, but you may want to just use gdb to access the
commands that are available in the kdb front end.

This patch implements the Rcmd gdb stub packet.  In gdb you access
this with the "monitor" command.  For instance you could type "monitor
help", "monitor lsmod" or "monitor ps A" etc...

There is no error checking or command restrictions on what you can and
cannot access at this point.  Doing something like trying to set
breakpoints with the monitor command is going to cause nothing but
problems.  Perhaps in the future only the commands that are actually
known to work with the gdb monitor command will be available.

f5316b4aea kgdb,8250,pl011: Return immediately from console poll
The design of the kdb shell requires that every device that can
provide input to kdb have a polling routine that exits immediately if
there is no character available.  This is required in order to get the
page scrolling mechanism working.

Changing the kernel debugger I/O API to require all polling character
routines to exit immediately if there is no data allows the kernel
debugger to process multiple input channels.

NO_POLL_CHAR will be the return code to the polling routine when ever
there is no character available.

5d5314d679 kdb: core for kgdb back end (1 of 2)
This patch contains only the kdb core.  Because the change set was
large, it was split.  The next patch in the series includes the
instrumentation into the core kernel which are mainly helper functions
for kdb.

This work is directly derived from kdb v4.4 found at:

ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb/download/v4.4/

The kdb internals have been re-organized to make them mostly platform
independent and to connect everything to the debug core which is used by
gdbstub (which has long been known as kgdb).

The original version of kdb was 58,000 lines worth of changes to
support x86.  From that implementation only the kdb shell, and basic
commands for memory access, runcontrol, lsmod, and dmesg where carried
forward.

This is a generic implementation which aims to cover all the current
architectures using the kgdb core: ppc, arm, x86, mips, sparc, sh and
blackfin.  More archictectures can be added by implementing the
architecture specific kgdb functions.
