Patch series "GDB VFS utils".
I've created a couple GDB convenience functions that I found useful when
debugging some VFS issues and figure others might find them useful. For
instance, they are useful in setting conditional breakpoints on VFS
functions where you only care if the dentry path is a certain value. I
took the opportunity to create a new "vfs" python module to give VFS
related utilities a home.
This patch (of 2):
This will allow for more VFS specific GDB helpers to be collected in one
place. Move utils.dentry_name into the vfs modules. Also a local
variable in proc.py was changed from vfs to mnt to prevent a naming
collision with the new vfs module.

/proc/interrupts does. This does include the architecture specific part
done by arch_show_interrupts() for x86, ARM, ARM64 and MIPS. Example

If CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED is enabled in the kernel configuration, we
will typically not be able to load vmlinux-gdb.py and will fail with:
Traceback (most recent call last):

atomic_long_counter_offset = atomic_long_type.get_type()['counter'].bitpos
KeyError: 'counter'
Rather be left wondering what is happening only to find out that reduced
debug information is the cause, raise an eror. This was not typically a
problem until e3c8d33e0d62 ("scripts/gdb: fix 'lx-dmesg' on 32 bits arch")
but it has since then.

Linux makes use of the Radix Tree data structure to store pointers indexed
by integer values. This structure is utilised across many structures in
the kernel including the IRQ descriptor tables, and several filesystems.
This module provides a method to lookup values from a structure given its
head node.
Usage:
The function lx_radix_tree_lookup, must be given a symbol of type struct
radix_tree_root, and an index into that tree.
The object returned is a generic integer value, and must be cast correctly
to the type based on the storage in the data structure.
For example, to print the irq descriptor in the sparse irq_desc_tree at
index 18, try the following:
(gdb) print (struct irq_desc)$lx_radix_tree_lookup(irq_desc_tree, 18)
This script previously existed under commit
e127a73d41ac471d7e3ba950cf128f42d6ee3448 ("scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree
Parser") and was later reverted with
b447e02548a3304c47b78b5e2d75a4312a8f17e1i (Revert "scripts/gdb: add a
Radix Tree Parser").
This version expects the XArray based radix tree implementation and has
been verified using QEMU/x86 on Linux 6.3-rc5.

tlb/info mem it provides the complete information about the paging

Post 'make scripts_gdb' a symbolic link to scripts/gdb/vmlinux-gdb.py is
created. Currently 'os.path.dirname(__file__)' does not generate the
absolute path to scripts/gdb resulting in the following:
(gdb) source vmlinux-gdb.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "scripts/gdb/vmlinux-gdb.py", line 25, in <module>

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'linux'
This patch ensures that the absolute path to scripts/gdb in relation to

Add helper commands and functions for finding pointers to struct device
by enumerating linux device bus/class infrastructure. This can be used
to fetch subsystem and driver-specific structs:
(gdb) p *$container_of($lx_device_find_by_class_name("net", "eth0"), "struct net_device", "dev")
(gdb) p *$container_of($lx_device_find_by_bus_name("i2c", "0-004b"), "struct i2c_client", "dev")
(gdb) p *(struct imx_port*)$lx_device_find_by_class_name("tty", "ttymxc1")->parent->driver_data
Several generic "lx-device-list" functions are included to enumerate
devices by bus and class:
(gdb) lx-device-list-bus usb
(gdb) lx-device-list-class
(gdb) lx-device-list-tree &platform_bus
Similar information is available in /sys but pointer values are
deliberately hidden.

lx-configdump <file> dumps the contents of the gzipped .config to a text
file when the config is included in the kernel with CONFIG_IKCONFIG. By
default, the file written is called config.txt, but it can be any user
supplied filename as well. If the kernel config is in a module
(configs.ko), then it can be loaded along with symbols for the module
loaded with 'lx-symbols' and then this command will still work.
Obviously if you have the whole vmlinux then this can also be achieved
with scripts/extract-ikconfig, but this gdb script can be useful to
confirm that the memory contents of the config in memory and the vmlinux
contents on disk match what is expected.

This reverts commit e127a73d41ac ("scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree
Parser")
The python implementation of radix-tree was merged at the same time as
the radix-tree system was heavily reworked from commit e9256efcc8e3
("radix-tree: introduce radix_tree_empty") to 3bcadd6fa6c4 ("radix-tree:
free up the bottom bit of exceptional entries for reuse") and no longer
functions, but also prevents other gdb scripts from loading.
This functionality has not yet hit a release, so simply remove it for
now

Add a command to identify the version specified by the banner in the
debugged kernel.
This lets the user identify the kernel of the running kernel, and will
let later scripts compare the banner of the attached kernel against the
banner in the vmlinux symbols files to verify that the files are
correct.

This is probably the most useful helper when debugging kernel modules:
lx-symbols first reloads vmlinux. Then it searches recursively for *.ko
files in the specified paths and the current directory. Finally it walks
the kernel's module list, issuing the necessary add-symbol-file command
for each loaded module so that gdb knows which module symbol corresponds
to which address. It also looks up variable sections (bss, data, rodata)
and appends their address to the add-symbole-file command line. This
allows to access global module variables just like any other variable.

This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python
helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb.
The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when
opening <objfile>. Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the
main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux.
The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb
commands and functions. To avoid polluting the source directory with
compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory.
Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we
depend on gdb >= 7.2.
This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.
