Linux嵌入式kgdb调试环境搭建

======================= 我的环境 ==========================
PC 端: win7 + vmware-15 ubuntu16.04
开发板:Freescale i.MX6  单CPU  Linux-4.1.15
 交叉编译器为 arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc(gcc version 4.6.3)
===========================================================

1. 前言

  上篇博文介绍了应用程序调试工具 gdb + gdbserver, 那有没有调试内核的呢?  没错, 就是本文介绍的kgdb, 当然早期有kdb, 后面kdb合并到kgdb了, 作为kgdb的前端, 后面我们会介绍, 而kgdb工具跟开发板通信支持kgdboc(串口)和kgdboe(网络),但新版内核只整合kgdboc, 网络被废弃了, 所以下文我们只介绍串口通信。

  串口通信有个问题就是, 如果开发板有多余的串口接出来是最好的, 但一般只有控制台console接出来, 所以当我们占用console作为kgdboc的通信接口, 那内核printk等打印我们是没办法通过shell  CRT软件看到的, 只有退出kgdb的时候才可以使用,

另外需要非常注意的是, 虚拟机必须用vmware, 不能用virtbox, 我用vbox-6.4版本的经常通信一会儿就没反应了。  

 

2. kernel配置选项

Kernel hacking --->
  [*] KGDB: kernel debugger --->

                

  如果想用kdb 则选上“KGDB_KDB: include kdb frontend for kgdb”, 但触发kgdb是会先进入kdb模式, 也配置文件多出以下几个选项(注意红色):

3.  启动参数

  上面选项只是编译相关调试代码, 如何告知kgdboc使用哪个串口呢?  一般有两种方式:

a. 在uboot传给kernel的cmdline 加上关键字 “console=ttyAMA4,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA4,115200”
b. 系统起来后 echo "kgdboc=ttyAMA4,115200" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

启动过程中出现log:
[    2.055290] KGDB: Registered I/O driver kgdboc

 

4. 触发进入kgdb调试模式

  在控制台输入: echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger 

    

  如果没有选中配置选项“KGDB_KDB: include kdb frontend for kgdb”, 会直接进入kgdb模式, 否则需要在kdb下键入命令“kgdb”

 

5. 连接开发板

  首先我的PC机是win7系统, 虚拟机vmware-15装ubuntu-16.04, 然后串口配置为虚拟机独占win7的COM1, 对应就是ubuntu的/dev/ttyS0

  开发板跑的是Linux的Image镜像, 但调试得是带有调试信息的vmlinux, 同时也要有源码, 跟调试应用程序一样道理, 跑到kernel根目录下执行:

(gdb) 
在用gdb来调试内核的时候,由于内核在初始化的时候,会创建很多子线程。而默认gdb会接管所有的线程,如果你从一个线程切换到另外一个线程,gdb会马上把原先的线程暂停。但是这样很容易导致kernel死掉,所以需要设置一下gdb。 
一般用gdb进行多线程调试,需要注意两个参数:follow-fork-mode和detach-on-fork。

detach-on-fork参数,指示GDB在fork之后是否断开(detach)某个进程的调试,或者都交由GDB控制:
set detach-on-fork [on|off]
    on: 断开调试follow-fork-mode指定的进程。
    off: gdb将控制父进程和子进程。


follow-fork-mode指定的进程将被调试,另一个进程置于暂停(suspended)状态。follow-fork-mode的用法为:
set follow-fork-mode [parent|child]
    parent: fork之后继续调试父进程,子进程不受影响。
    child: fork之后调试子进程,父进程不受影响。

  当没有断点, 输入continue让系统跑的时候,  串口将不会被kgdboc占用, 所以控制台又可以用了

 

6.  调试module.ko

  略......

 

7. 注意事项

a. 虚拟机用vmware, vbox串口有问题
b. 确保kgdboc加载成功, 如果出现“kgdb: Unregistered I/O driver, debugger disabled” 或者没有节点“/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc”
    很有可能串口驱动没有支持如下三个函数:
    
                                            struct uart_ops {
                                                #ifdef CONFIG_CONSOLE_POLL
                                                    int        (*poll_init)(struct uart_port *);
                                                    void    (*poll_put_char)(struct uart_port *, unsigned char);
                                                    int        (*poll_get_char)(struct uart_port *);
                                                #endif
                                            };

                                        其实也简单, 在所在的串口驱动必然有提供读写TX/RX寄存器和判断FIFO的函数, 直接while查询即可
                                            static int serial_get_poll_char(struct uart_port *port)
                                            {
                                                if((serial_in(port, ARM_UART_STS1) & 0xff) == 0)
                                                    return NO_POLL_CHAR;

                                                return serial_in(port, ARM_UART_RXD);
                                            }
                                            static inline void wait_for_xmitr(struct uart_port *port);

                                            static void serial_put_poll_char(struct uart_port *port, unsigned char c)
                                            {

                                                wait_for_xmitr(port);
                                                serial_out(port, ARM_UART_TXD, c);
                                            }

c. 如果希望系统启动过程中就进入kgdb, 而不是后面“echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger”
    cmdline改成 -> “console=ttyAMA4,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA4,115200 kgdbwait”
    
d. PC端ubuntu用的gdb还是跟上篇博文的一样
