[PATCH 4/8] dyndbg: split struct _ddebug in 2, creating _ddebug_callsite

Wed Aug 5 14:30:19 EDT 2020
Split the struct into 2 linked parts (head & body) so that next,
struct _ddebug_callsite can be off-lined to zram, and only mapped in
as needed. The split increases overall memory use by 1 pointer per
callsite, but 4 pointers and a short are now 99% likely to be off-line
(once implemented).
dyndbg: 264 modules, 2541 entries and 10560 bytes in ddebug tables,\
81312 bytes in __dyndbg section, 101640 bytes in __dyndbg_callsites section
zram should give us some compression on the _ddebug_callsite data, and
if it doesn't, a simple run-length-encoder would be effective enough,
given the repetition on (modname,filename,function) of (90%,84%,45%)
and the highly ordered contents of the __ddebug_callsites section.
I wanted to also put the key field into _ddebug_callsite, since its
use is super rare; it is only used when enabling/disabling a callsite,
ie only when >control is being actively exersized. But that blew up
with asm goto errors, so I punted.
So struct _ddebug_callsite is all const, RO data. Maybe thats
advantageous later, but with key there too, we can shrink the online
struct _ddebug further.
details of how:
dynamic_debug.h:
I literally cut struct _ddebug in half, renamed top-half, kept
__align(8) on both, added forward decl for unified comment (not needed
by compiler), and a site pointer from _ddebug to _ddebug_callsite, and
a few "->site" additions.
DECLARE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA does the rest; it declares and
initializes both static struct vars together, and refs one to the
other. Note: this may conflict with new guards against cross-linked
sections, but __init work on __initdata seems a fair loophole.
dynamic_debug.c:
dynamic_debug_init() gets "->site" added everywhere needed.
Other 3 runtime users get a new _ddebug_callsite *dc pointer,
initialized with a single dp->site deref, and s/dp/dc/ as needed.
These one per func dp->site derefs are a setup for the next commit.
vmlinux.lds.h:
add __ddebug_callsites section, with the same align(8) and KEEP as
used in the __ddebug section. I suspect keep may go as a part of
causing the section reclaim.
