-debugfs-files:
-
-Example::
-
- > ls /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd
- flush hex_ascii level pages raw
- > cat /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/hex_ascii | sort -k2,2 -s

-
-Changing the debug level
-------------------------
-
-Example::
-
-
- > cat /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
- 3
- > echo "5" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
- > cat /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
- 5
-
-Flushing debug areas
---------------------
-Debug areas can be flushed with piping the number of the desired
-area (0...n) to the debugfs file "flush". When using "-" all debug areas
-are flushed.
-
-Examples:
-
-1. Flush debug area 0::
-
- > echo "0" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/flush
-
-2. Flush all debug areas::
-
- > echo "-" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/flush
-
-Changing the size of debug areas
-------------------------------------
-It is possible the change the size of debug areas through piping
-the number of pages to the debugfs file "pages". The resize request will
-also flush the debug areas.
-
-Example:
-
-Define 4 pages for the debug areas of debug feature "dasd"::
-
- > echo "4" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/pages
-
-Stooping the debug feature
---------------------------
-Example:
-
-1. Check if stopping is allowed::
-
- > cat /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_stoppable
-
-2. Stop debug feature::
-
- > echo 0 > /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_active
-
-lcrash Interface
-----------------
-It is planned that the dump analysis tool lcrash gets an additional command
-'s390dbf' to display all the debug logs. With this tool it will be possible
-to investigate the debug logs on a live system and with a memory dump after
-a system crash.
-
-Investigating raw memory
-------------------------
-One last possibility to investigate the debug logs at a live
-system and after a system crash is to look at the raw memory
-under VM or at the Service Element.
-It is possible to find the anker of the debug-logs through
-the 'debug_area_first' symbol in the System map. Then one has
-to follow the correct pointers of the data-structures defined
-in debug.h and find the debug-areas in memory.
-Normally modules which use the debug feature will also have
-a global variable with the pointer to the debug-logs. Following
-this pointer it will also be possible to find the debug logs in
-memory.
-
-For this method it is recommended to use '16 * x + 4' byte (x = 0..n)
-for the length of the data field in debug_register() in
-order to see the debug entries well formatted.
-
-
-Predefined Views
-----------------
-
-There are three predefined views: hex_ascii, raw and sprintf.
-The hex_ascii view shows the data field in hex and ascii representation
-(e.g. '45 43 4b 44 | ECKD').
-The raw view returns a bytestream as the debug areas are stored in memory.
-
-The sprintf view formats the debug entries in the same way as the sprintf
-function would do. The sprintf event/exception functions write to the
-debug entry a pointer to the format string (size = sizeof(long))
-and for each vararg a long value. So e.g. for a debug entry with a format
-string plus two varargs one would need to allocate a (3 * sizeof(long))
-byte data area in the debug_register() function.
-
-IMPORTANT:
- Using "%s" in sprintf event functions is dangerous. You can only
- use "%s" in the sprintf event functions, if the memory for the passed string
- is available as long as the debug feature exists. The reason behind this is
- that due to performance considerations only a pointer to the string is stored
- in the debug feature. If you log a string that is freed afterwards, you will
- get an OOPS when inspecting the debug feature, because then the debug feature
- will access the already freed memory.
-
-NOTE:
- If using the sprintf view do NOT use other event/exception functions
- than the sprintf-event and -exception functions.
-
-The format of the hex_ascii and sprintf view is as follows:
-
-- Number of area
-- Timestamp (formatted as seconds and microseconds since 00:00:00 Coordinated
- Universal Time (UTC), January 1, 1970)
-- level of debug entry
-- Exception flag (* = Exception)
-- Cpu-Number of calling task
-- Return Address to caller
-- data field
-
-The format of the raw view is:
-
-- Header as described in debug.h
-- datafield
-
-A typical line of the hex_ascii view will look like the following (first line
-is only for explanation and will not be displayed when 'cating' the view):
-
-area time level exception cpu caller data (hex + ascii)

-
-Defining views
---------------
-
-Views are specified with the 'debug_view' structure. There are defined
-callback functions which are used for reading and writing the debugfs files::
-
- struct debug_view {
- char name[DEBUG_MAX_PROCF_LEN];
- debug_prolog_proc_t* prolog_proc;
- debug_header_proc_t* header_proc;
- debug_format_proc_t* format_proc;
- debug_input_proc_t* input_proc;
- void* private_data;
- };
-
-where::
-
- typedef int (debug_header_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view,
- int area,
- debug_entry_t* entry,
- char* out_buf);
-
- typedef int (debug_format_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view, char* out_buf,
- const char* in_buf);
- typedef int (debug_prolog_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view,
- char* out_buf);
- typedef int (debug_input_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view,
- struct file* file, const char* user_buf,
- size_t in_buf_size, loff_t* offset);
-
-
-The "private_data" member can be used as pointer to view specific data.
-It is not used by the debug feature itself.
-
-The output when reading a debugfs file is structured like this::
-
- "prolog_proc output"
-
- "header_proc output 1" "format_proc output 1"
- "header_proc output 2" "format_proc output 2"
- "header_proc output 3" "format_proc output 3"
- ...
-
-When a view is read from the debugfs, the Debug Feature calls the
-'prolog_proc' once for writing the prolog.
-Then 'header_proc' and 'format_proc' are called for each
-existing debug entry.
-
-The input_proc can be used to implement functionality when it is written to
-the view (e.g. like with 'echo "0" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level).
-
-For header_proc there can be used the default function
-debug_dflt_header_fn() which is defined in debug.h.
-and which produces the same header output as the predefined views.
-E.g::
-
- 00 00964419409:440761 2 - 00 88023ec
-
-In order to see how to use the callback functions check the implementation
-of the default views!
-
-Example::
-
- #include <asm/debug.h>
-
- #define UNKNOWNSTR "data: %08x"
-
- const char* messages[] =
- {"This error...........\n",
- "That error...........\n",
- "Problem..............\n",
- "Something went wrong.\n",
- "Everything ok........\n",
- NULL
- };
-
- static int debug_test_format_fn(
- debug_info_t * id, struct debug_view *view,
- char *out_buf, const char *in_buf
- )
- {
- int i, rc = 0;
-
- if(id->buf_size >= 4) {
- int msg_nr = *((int*)in_buf);
- if(msg_nr < sizeof(messages)/sizeof(char*) - 1)
- rc += sprintf(out_buf, "%s", messages[msg_nr]);
- else
- rc += sprintf(out_buf, UNKNOWNSTR, msg_nr);
- }
- out:
- return rc;
- }
-
- struct debug_view debug_test_view = {
- "myview", /* name of view */
- NULL, /* no prolog */
- &debug_dflt_header_fn, /* default header for each entry */
- &debug_test_format_fn, /* our own format function */
- NULL, /* no input function */
- NULL /* no private data */
