Multiple uncore structures will share the debug infrastructure, so move it to a common place and add extra locking around it. Also, since we now have a separate object, it is cleaner to have dedicated functions working on the object to stop and restart the mmio debug. Apart from the cosmetic changes, this patch introduces 2 functional updates: - All calls to check_for_unclaimed_mmio will now return false when the debug is suspended, not just the ones that are active only when i915_modparams.mmio_debug is set. If we don't trust the result of the check while a user is doing mmio access then we shouldn't attempt the check anywhere. - i915_modparams.mmio_debug is not save/restored anymore around user access. The value is now never touched by the kernel while debug is disabled so no need for save/restore. v2: squash mmio_debug patches, restrict mmio_debug lock usage (Chris) Signed-off-by: Daniele Ceraolo Spurio <daniele.ceraolospurio@intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190809063116.7527-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
