2022-09-07dyndbg: add drm.debug style (drm/parameters/debug) bitmap supportJim Cromie
Add kernel_param_ops and callbacks to use a class-map to validate and apply input to a sysfs-node, which allows users to control classes defined in that class-map. This supports uses like: echo 0x3 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug IE add these: - int param_set_dyndbg_classes() - int param_get_dyndbg_classes() - struct kernel_param_ops param_ops_dyndbg_classes Following the model of kernel/params.c STANDARD_PARAM_DEFS, these are non-static and exported. This might be unnecessary here. get/set use an augmented kernel_param; the arg refs a new struct ddebug_class_param, which contains: - A ptr to user's state-store; a union of &ulong for drm.debug, &int for nouveau level debug. By ref'g the client's bit-state _var, code coordinates with existing code (like drm_debug_enabled) which uses it, so existing/remaining calls can work unchanged. Changing drm.debug to a ulong allows use of BIT() etc. - FLAGS: dyndbg.flags toggled by changes to bitmap. Usually just "p". - MAP: a pointer to struct ddebug_classes_map, which maps those class-names to .class_ids 0..N that the module is using. This class-map is declared & initialized by DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP. - map-type: 4 enums DD_CLASS_TYPE_* select 2 input forms and 2 meanings. numeric input: DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_BITS integer input, independent bits. ie: drm.debug DD_CLASS_TYPE_LEVEL_NUM integer input, 0..N levels classnames-list (comma separated) input: DD_CLASS_TYPE_DISJOINT_NAMES each name affects a bit, others preserved DD_CLASS_TYPE_LEVEL_NAMES names have level meanings, like kern_levels.h _NAMES - comma-separated classnames (with optional +-) _NUM - numeric input, 0-N expected _BITS - numeric input, 0x1F bitmap form expected _DISJOINT - bits are independent _LEVEL - (x<y) on bit-pos. _DISJOINT treats input like a bit-vector (ala drm.debug), and sets each bit accordingly. LEVEL is layered on top of this. _LEVEL treats input like a bit-pos:N, then sets bits(0..N)=1, and bits(N+1..max)=0. This applies (bit<N) semantics on top of disjoint bits. USAGES: A potentially typical _DISJOINT_NAMES use: echo +DRM_UT_CORE,+DRM_UT_KMS,-DRM_UT_DRIVER,-DRM_UT_ATOMIC \ > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug_catnames A naive _LEVEL_NAMES use, with one class, that sets all in the class-map according to (x<y): : problem seen echo +L7 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names : problem solved echo -L1 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names Note this artifact: : this is same as prev cmd (due to +/-) echo L0 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names : this is "even-more" off, but same wo __pr_debug_class(L0, ".."). echo -L0 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names A stress-test/make-work usage (kid toggling a light switch): echo +L7,L0,L7,L0,L7,L0,L7,L0,L7,L0,L7,L0,L7 \ > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/p_level_names ddebug_apply_class_bitmap(): inside-fn, works on bitmaps, receives new-bits, finds diffs vs client-bitvector holding "current" state, and issues exec_query to commit the adjustment. param_set_dyndbg_classes(): interface fn, sends _NAMES to param_set_dyndbg_classnames() and returns, falls thru to handle _BITS, _NUM internally, and calls ddebug_apply_class_bitmap(). Finishes by updating state. param_set_dyndbg_classnames(): handles classnames-list in loop, calls ddebug_apply_class_bitmap for each, then updates state. NOTES: _LEVEL_ is overlay on _DISJOINT_; inputs are converted to a bitmask, by the callbacks. IOW this is possible, and possibly confusing: echo class V3 +p > control echo class V1 -p > control IMO thats ok, relative verbosity is an interface property. _LEVEL_NUM maps still need class-names, even though the names are not usable at the sysfs interface (unlike with _NAMES style). The names are the only way to >control the classes. - It must have a "V0" name, something below "V1" to turn "V1" off. __pr_debug_cls(V0,..) is printk, don't do that. - "class names" is required at the >control interface. - relative levels are not enforced at >control _LEVEL_NAMES bear +/- signs, which alters the on-bit-pos by 1. IOW, +L2 means L0,L1,L2, and -L2 means just L0,L1. This kinda spoils the readback fidelity, since the L0 bit gets turned on by any use of any L*, except "-L0". All the interface uncertainty here pertains to the _NAMES features. Nobody has actually asked for this, so its practical (if a little tedious) to split it out.

2022-09-07dyndbg: validate class FOO by checking with moduleJim Cromie
Add module-to-class validation: #> echo class DRM_UT_KMS +p > /proc/dynamic_debug/control If a query has "class FOO", then ddebug_find_valid_class(), called from ddebug_change(), requires that FOO is known to module X, otherwize the query is skipped entirely for X. This protects each module's class-space, other than the default:31. The authors' choice of FOO is highly selective, giving isolation and/or coordinated sharing of FOOs. For example, only DRM modules should know and respond to DRM_UT_KMS. So this, combined with module's opt-in declaration of known classes, effectively privatizes the .class_id space for each module (or coordinated set of modules). Notes: For all "class FOO" queries, ddebug_find_valid_class() is called, it returns the map matching the query, and sets valid_class via an *outvar). If no "class FOO" is supplied, valid_class = _CLASS_DFLT. This insures that legacy queries do not trample on new class'd callsites, as they get added. Also add a new column to control-file output, displaying non-default class-name (when found) or the "unknown _id:", if it has not been (correctly) declared with one of the declarator macros.

2022-09-07dyndbg: add ddebug_attach_module_classesJim Cromie
Add ddebug_attach_module_classes(), call it from ddebug_add_module(). It scans the classes/section its given, finds records where the module-name matches the module being added, and adds them to the module's maps list. No locking here, since the record isn't yet linked into the ddebug_tables list. It is called indirectly from 2 sources: - from load_module(), where it scans the module's __dyndbg_classes section, which contains DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSES definitions from just the module. - from dynamic_debug_init(), where all DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSES definitions of each builtin module have been packed together. This is why ddebug_attach_module_classes() checks module-name. NOTES Its (highly) likely that builtin classes will be ordered by module name (just like prdbg descriptors are in the __dyndbg section). So the list can be replaced by a vector (ptr + length), which will work for loaded modules too. This would imitate whats currently done for the _ddebug descriptors. That said, converting to vector,len is close to pointless; a small minority of modules will ever define a class-map, and almost all of them will have only 1 or 2 class-maps, so theres only a couple dozen pointers to save. TODO: re-evaluate for lines removable.

2022-09-07dyndbg: gather __dyndbg[] state into struct _ddebug_infoJim Cromie
This new struct composes the linker provided (vector,len) section, and provides a place to add other __dyndbg[] state-data later: descs - the vector of descriptors in __dyndbg section. num_descs - length of the data/section. Use it, in several different ways, as follows: In lib/dynamic_debug.c: ddebug_add_module(): Alter params-list, replacing 2 args (array,index) with a struct _ddebug_info * containing them both, with room for expansion. This helps future-proof the function prototype against the looming addition of class-map info into the dyndbg-state, by providing a place to add more member fields later. NB: later add static struct _ddebug_info builtins_state declaration, not needed yet. ddebug_add_module() is called in 2 contexts: In dynamic_debug_init(), declare, init a struct _ddebug_info di auto-var to use as a cursor. Then iterate over the prdbg blocks of the builtin modules, and update the di cursor before calling _add_module for each. Its called from kernel/module/main.c:load_info() for each loaded module: In internal.h, alter struct load_info, replacing the dyndbg array,len fields with an embedded _ddebug_info containing them both; and populate its members in find_module_sections(). The 2 calling contexts differ in that _init deals with contiguous subranges of __dyndbgs[] section, packed together, while loadable modules are added one at a time. So rename ddebug_add_module() into outer/__inner fns, call __inner from _init, and provide the offset into the builtin __dyndbgs[] where the module's prdbgs reside. The cursor provides start, len of the subrange for each. The offset will be used later to pack the results of builtin __dyndbg_sites[] de-duplication, and is 0 and unneeded for loadable modules, Note: kernel/module/main.c includes <dynamic_debug.h> for struct _ddeubg_info. This might be prone to include loops, since its also included by printk.h. Nothing has broken in robot-land on this. cc: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220904214134.408619-12-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2022-09-07dyndbg: drop EXPORTed dynamic_debug_exec_queriesJim Cromie
This exported fn is unused, and will not be needed. Lets dump it. The export was added to let drm control pr_debugs, as part of using them to avoid drm_debug_enabled overheads. But its better to just implement the drm.debug bitmap interface, then its available for everyone.

2022-09-07dyndbg: let query-modname override actual module nameJim Cromie
dyndbg's control-parser: ddebug_parse_query(), requires that search terms: module, func, file, lineno, are used only once in a query; a thing cannot be named both foo and bar. The cited commit added an overriding module modname, taken from the module loader, which is authoritative. So it set query.module 1st, which disallowed its use in the query-string. But now, its useful to allow a module-load to enable classes across a whole (or part of) a subsystem at once. # enable (dynamic-debug in) drm only modprobe drm dyndbg="class DRM_UT_CORE +p" # get drm_helper too modprobe drm dyndbg="class DRM_UT_CORE module drm* +p" # get everything that knows DRM_UT_CORE modprobe drm dyndbg="class DRM_UT_CORE module * +p" # also for boot-args: drm.dyndbg="class DRM_UT_CORE module * +p" So convert the override into a default, by filling it only when/after the query-string omitted the module. NB: the query class FOO handling is forthcoming.

2022-09-07dyndbg: reverse module.callsite walk in cat controlJim Cromie
Walk the module's vector of callsites backwards; ie N..0. This "corrects" the backwards appearance of a module's prdbg vector when walked 0..N. I think this is due to linker mechanics, which I'm inclined to treat as immutable, and the order is fixable in display. No functional changes.

In https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211209150910.GA23668@axis.com/ Vincent's patch commented on, and worked around, a bug toggling static_branch's, when a 2nd PRINTK-ish flag was added. The bug results in a premature static_branch_disable when the 1st of 2 flags was disabled. The cited commit computed newflags, but then in the JUMP_LABEL block, failed to use that result, instead using just one of the terms in it. Using newflags instead made the code work properly. This is Vincents test-case, reduced. It needs the 2nd flag to demonstrate the bug, but it's explanatory here. pt_test() { echo 5 > /sys/module/dynamic_debug/verbose site="module tcp" # just one callsite echo " $site =_ " > /proc/dynamic_debug/control # clear it # A B ~A ~B for flg in +T +p "-T #broke here" -p; do echo " $site $flg " > /proc/dynamic_debug/control done; # A B ~B ~A for flg in +T +p "-p #broke here" -T; do echo " $site $flg " > /proc/dynamic_debug/control done } pt_test Fixes: 84da83a6ffc0 dyndbg: combine flags & mask into a struct, simplify with it CC: vincent.whitchurch@axis.com Acked-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@akamai.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220904214134.408619-2-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-10-21dyndbg: refine verbosity 1-4 summary-detailJim Cromie
adjust current v*pr_info() calls to fit an overview..detail scheme: 1- module level activity: add/remove, etc 2- command ingest, splitting, summary of effects. per >control write 3- command parsing: op, flags, search terms 4- per-site change msg can yield ~3k x 2 logs per echo "+p;-p" > command. Summarize these 4 levels in MODULE_PARM_DESC, and update verbose=3 in Doc. 2- is new, to isolate a problem where a stress-test script (which feeds ~4kb multi-command strings) would produce short writes, truncating last command and causing parsing errors, which confused test results. The script fix was to use syswrite, to deliver full proper commands. 4- gets per-callsite "changed:" pr-infos, which are very noisy during stress tests, and formerly obscured v1-3 messages, and overwhelmed the static-key workload being tested. The verbose parameter has previously seen adjustment: commit 481c0e33f1e7 ("dyndbg: refine debug verbosity; 1 is basic, 2 more chatty") The script driving these adjustments is: !/usr/bin/perl -w =for Doc 1st purpose was to benchmark the effect of wildcard queries on query performance; if wildcards are risk free cheap enough, we can deploy them in the (floating) format search. 1st finding: wildcards take 2x as long to process. 2nd purpose was to benchmark real static-key changes VS simple flag changes. Found ~100x decrease for the hard work. The script maximizes workload per >control by packing it a ~4kb string of "+p; -p;" commands; this uncovered some broken stuff. The 85th query failed, and appears to be truncated, so is gramatically incorrect. Its either an error here, or in the kernel. Its not happening atm, retest. Plot thickens: fail only happens doing +-p, not +-mf, likely load dependent. Error remains consistent. Looks like a short write, longer on writer than kernel-reader.

2021-10-14dyndbg: no vpr-info on empty queriesJim Cromie
when `echo $cmd > control` contains multiple queries, extra query separators (;\n) can parse as empty statements. This is normal, and a vpr-info on an empty command is just noise.

Right now dyndbg shows up as an unknown parameter if used on boot: Unknown command line parameters: dyndbg=+p That's because it is unknown, it doesn't sit in the __param section, so the processing done to warn users supplying an unknown parameter doesn't think it is legitimate. Install a dummy handler to register it. dynamic debug needs to search the whole command line for modules listed that are currently builtin, so there's no real work to be done in this callback.

Query like 'file tcp_input.c line 1234 +p' was broken by commit aaebe329bff0 ("dyndbg: accept 'file foo.c:func1' and 'file foo.c:10-100'") because a file name without a ':' now makes the loop in ddebug_parse_query() exits early before parsing the 'line 1234' part.

2020-07-24dyndbg: export ddebug_exec_queriesJim Cromie
Export ddebug_exec_queries() for use by modules. This will allow module authors to control all their *pr_debug*s dynamically. And since ddebug_exec_queries() is what implements "echo $query >control", it gives the same per-callsite control. Virtues of this: - simplicity. just an export. - full control over any/all subsets of callsites. - same "query/command-string" in code and console - full callsite selectivity with module file line format Format in particular deserves special attention; it is where low-hanging fruit will be found. Consider: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/include/logger_types.h: #define DC_LOG_SURFACE(...) pr_debug("[SURFACE]:"__VA_ARGS__) #define DC_LOG_HW_LINK_TRAINING(...) pr_debug("[HW_LINK_TRAINING]:"__VA_ARGS__) .. 9 more .. Thats 11 string prefixes, used in 804 places in drivers/gpu/** Clearly this is a systematized classification of those callsites. And one I'd expect to see repeated often. Using ddebug_exec_queries(), authors can select on those prefixes as a unitary set, equivalent to: echo "module=MODULE_NAME format=^[SURFACE]: +p" >control Trivially, those sets can be subsected with the other query terms too, say file=foo, should the author see fit. Perhaps as important, users can modify the set of enabled callsites, presumably to aid debugging by enabling helpful debug callsites, and disabling those that just clutter the info. Authors could even alter [fmlt] flags, though I dont see a good reason why they would. Perhaps harnessed by bug-logging automation to get fuller, or more minimal bug-reports. DRM drm has both drm.debug, which defines 32 categories of drm_printk logging, and entirely separate uses of pr_debug, which are dynamic on this i915 laptop, running mainline. So I can observe and report on both. The i915 driver has 118 dyndbg callsites, with following "classifications" defined in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/** $ grep 915 /proc/dynamic_debug/control | cut -d= -f2 | cut -d: -f1,2 | sort -u _ "gvt: cmd _ "gvt: core _ "gvt: dpy _ "gvt: el _ "gvt: irq _ "gvt: mm _ "gvt: mmio _ "gvt: render _ "gvt: sched _ "%s for root hub!\012" _ "Vendor defined info completion code %u\012" This classification is entirely out-of-band for control by drm.debug, and is only available to root user at the console. But module authors can activate them with ddebug_exec_queries(sprintf("format=^%s +p")), and then decide how to expose the groups to the user for max utility. drm.debug drm.debug has 32 bit-flags, and matching enum drm_debug_category values to classify the ~2943 DRM_DEBUG*() callsites in drivers/gpu The drm.debug callback could invoke ddebug_exec_queries() with 32 different hardcoded query strings, needing only (bit) ? " +p" : " -p" added. I briefly enabled drm.debug=0xff on my i915 laptop, which yielded these unique prefixes: (dmesg | cut -c17- | cut -d\] -f1 | sort -u) [drm:drm_atomic_check_only [drm [drm:drm_atomic_get_crtc_state [drm [drm:drm_atomic_get_plane_state [drm [drm:drm_atomic_nonblocking_commit [drm [drm:drm_atomic_set_fb_for_plane [drm [drm:drm_atomic_state_default_clear [drm [drm:__drm_atomic_state_free [drm [drm:drm_atomic_state_init [drm [drm:drm_crtc_vblank_helper_get_vblank_timestamp_internal [drm [drm:drm_handle_vblank [drm [drm:drm_ioctl [drm [drm:drm_mode_addfb2 [drm [drm:drm_mode_object_get [drm [drm:drm_mode_object_put.part.0 [drm [drm:drm_update_vblank_count [drm [drm:drm_vblank_enable [drm [drm:drm_vblank_restore [drm [drm:vblank_disable_fn [drm i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:gen9_set_dc_state [i915 i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_atomic_get_global_obj_state [i915 i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:__intel_display_power_get_domain.part.0 [i915 i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:__intel_display_power_put_domain [i915 i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_plane_atomic_calc_changes [i915 i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:skl_enable_dc6 [i915 Several good format=^prefixes are apparent there, and some misses. ^[drm:drm_atomic_ # misses: [drm:__drm_atomic_state_free [drm ^[drm:drm_ioctl ^[drm:drm_mode ^[drm:drm_vblank_ # misses: [drm:drm_update_vblank_count & [drm:vblank_disable_fn Its not a perfect 1:1 single format-match per class, but the misses above can be covered with 1 & 2 additional queries, which can be concatenated together with ";" separators and submitted with 1 call. Benefits: For drm, adapting DRM_DEBUG to use dynamic-debug inside could replicate (and thereby obsolete) lots of bit-checking in current DRM_DEBUG callsites, at least with JUMP_LABEL optimized code. ddebug_exec_queries() and a handful of fixed query-strings can select and thereby control the already classified callsites. With the classes mapped to queries, the enum type and parameter can be eliminated (folded away with macro magic), at least for DYNAMIC_DEBUG & JUMP_LABEL builds. Is it safe ? ddebug_exec_queries() is currently exposed to user space in several limited ways; 1 it is called from module-load callback, where it implements the $modname.dyndbg=+p "fake" parameter provided to all modules. 2 it handles query input via >control directly IOW, it is "fully" exposed to local root user; exposing the same functionality to other kernel modules is no additional risk. The other standard issue to check is locking: dyndbg has a single mutex, taken by ddebug_change to handle >control, and by ddebug_proc_(start|stop) to span `cat control`. Queries submitted via export will typically have module specified, which dramatically cuts the scan by ddebug_change vs "module=* +p". ISTM this proposed export presents no locking problems. TLDR; It would be interesting to see how drm.dyndbg=$QUERY and drm.debug=$HEXY would interact; it might be order dependent, as if given as modprobe args or in /etc/modprobe.d/ Acked-by: <jbaron@akamai.com> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200719231058.1586423-19-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2020-07-24dyndbg: allow anchored match on format query termJim Cromie
This should work: echo module=amd* format=^[IF_TRACE]: +p >/proc/dynamic_debug/control consider drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/include/logger_types.h: It has 11 defines like: #define DC_LOG_IF_TRACE(...) pr_debug("[IF_TRACE]:"__VA_ARGS__) These defines are used 804 times at recent count; they are a good use case to evaluate existing format-message based classifications of *pr_debug*. Those macros prefix the supplied format with a fixed string, I'd expect most existing message classification schemes to do something similar. Hence we want to be able to anchor our match to the beginning of the format string, allowing easy construction of clear and precise queries, leveraging the existing classification scheme to enable and disable those callsites. Note that unlike other search terms, formats are implicitly floating substring matches, without the need for explicit wildcards. This makes no attempt at wider regex features, just the one we need. TLDR: Using the anchor also means the []s are less helpful for disamiguating the prefix from a random in-message occurrence, allowing shorter prefixes.

2020-07-24dyndbg: fix overcounting of ram used by dyndbgJim Cromie
during dyndbg init, verbose logging prints its ram overhead. It counted strlens of struct _ddebug's 4 string members, in all callsite entries, which would be approximately correct if each had been mallocd. But they are pointers into shared .rodata; for example, all 10 kobject callsites have identical filename, module values. Its best not to count that memory at all, since we cannot know they were linked in because of CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, and we want to report a number that reflects what ram is saved by deconfiguring it. Also fix wording and size under-reporting of the __dyndbg section. Heres my overhead, on a virtme-run VM on a fedora-31 laptop: dynamic_debug:dynamic_debug_init: 260 modules, 2479 entries \ and 10400 bytes in ddebug tables, 138824 bytes in __dyndbg section Acked-by: <jbaron@akamai.com> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200719231058.1586423-7-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-07-24dyndbg: rename __verbose section to __dyndbgJim Cromie
dyndbg populates its callsite info into __verbose section, change that to a more specific and descriptive name, __dyndbg. Also, per checkpatch: simplify __attribute(..) to __section(__dyndbg) declaration. and 1 spelling fix, decriptor Acked-by: <jbaron@akamai.com> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200719231058.1586423-6-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-07-24dyndbg: refine debug verbosity; 1 is basic, 2 more chattyJim Cromie
The verbose/debug logging done for `cat $MNT/dynamic_debug/control` is voluminous (2 per control file entry + 2 per PAGE). Moreover, it just prints pointer and sequence, which is not useful to a dyndbg user. So just drop them. Also require verbose>=2 for several other debug printks that are a bit too chatty for typical needs; ddebug_change() prints changes, once per modified callsite. Since queries like "+p" will enable ~2300 callsites in a typical laptop, a user probably doesn't need to see them often. ddebug_exec_queries() still summarizes with verbose=1. ddebug_(add|remove)_module() also print 1 line per action on a module, not needed by typical modprobe user. This leaves verbose=1 better focussed on the >control parsing process.

2020-07-24dyndbg: drop obsolete comment on ddebug_proc_openJim Cromie
commit 4bad78c55002 ("lib/dynamic_debug.c: use seq_open_private() instead of seq_open()")' The commit was one of a tree-wide set which replaced open-coded boilerplate with a single tail-call. It therefore obsoleted the comment about that boilerplate, clean that up now.

2020-06-08dynamic_debug: add an option to enable dynamic debug for modules onlyOrson Zhai
Instead of enabling dynamic debug globally with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE will only enable core function of dynamic debug. With the DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for any modules, dynamic debug will be tied to them. This is useful for people who only want to enable dynamic debug for kernel modules without worrying about kernel image size and memory consumption is increasing too much.

2020-04-07lib/dynamic_debug.c: use address-of operator on section symbolsNathan Chancellor
Clang warns: ../lib/dynamic_debug.c:1034:24: warning: array comparison always evaluates to false [-Wtautological-compare] if (__start___verbose == __stop___verbose) { ^ 1 warning generated. These are not true arrays, they are linker defined symbols, which are just addresses. Using the address of operator silences the warning and does not change the resulting assembly with either clang/ld.lld or gcc/ld (tested with diff + objdump -Dr).
