Right now, we take the stack pointer early during the backtrace path, but
only calculate bp several functions deep later, making it hard to reconcile
the stack and bp backtraces (as well as showing several internal backtrace
functions on the stack with bp based backtracing).
This patch moves the bp taking to the same place we take the stack pointer;
sadly this ripples through several layers of the back tracing stack,
but it's not all that bad in the end I hope.

The 32 bit Frame Pointer backtracer code checks if the EBP is valid
to do a backtrace; however currently on a failure it just gives up
and prints nothing. That's not very nice; we can do better and still
print a decent backtrace.
This patch changes the backtracer to use the regular backtracing algorithm
at the same time as the EBP backtracer; the EBP backtracer is basically
used to figure out which part of the backtrace are reliable vs those
which are likely to be noise.

For enhancing the 32 bit EBP based backtracer, I need the capability
for the backtracer to tell it's customer that an entry is either
reliable or unreliable, and the backtrace printing code then needs to
print the unreliable ones slightly different.
This patch adds the basic capability, the next patch will add a user
of this capability.

The current x86 32 bit FRAME_POINTER chasing code has a nasty bug in
that the EBP tracer doesn't actually update the value of EBP it is
tracing, so that the code doesn't actually switch to the irq stack
properly.
The result is a truncated backtrace:

This patch fixes the code to update EBP properly, and to check the EIP
before printing (as the non-framepointer backtracer does) so that
the same test backtrace now looks like this:

This shows that the backtrace goes all the way down to user context now.

This patch aims to make the access of struct desc_struct variables
equal across architectures. In this patch, I unify the i386 and x86_64
versions under an anonymous union, keeping the way they are accessed
untouched (a and b for 32-bit code, individual bit-fields for 64-bit).
This solution is not beautiful, but will allow us to integrate common
code that differed by the way descriptors were used. This is to be viewed
incrementally. There's simply too much code to be fixed at once.
In the future, goal is to set up in a single way of acessing
the desc_struct fields.

We have a lot of code which differs only by the naming of specific
members of structures that contain registers. In order to enable
additional unifications, this patch drops the e- or r- size prefix
from the register names in struct pt_regs, and drops the x- prefixes
for segment registers on the 32-bit side.
This patch also performs the equivalent renames in some additional
places that might be candidates for unification in the future.

Andrew "Eagle Eye" Morton noticed that we use raw_local_save_flags()
instead of raw_local_irq_save(flags) in die(). This allows the
preemption of oopsing contexts - which is highly undesirable. It also
causes CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT to complain, as reported by Miles Lane.
this bug was introduced via:
commit 39743c9ef7
Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
Date: Fri Oct 19 20:35:03 2007 +0200
x86: use raw locks during oopses
- spin_lock_irqsave(&die.lock, flags);
+ __raw_spin_lock(&die.lock);
+ raw_local_save_flags(flags);
that is not a correct open-coding of spin_lock_irqsave(): both the
ordering is wrong (irqs should be disabled _first_), and the wrong
flags-saving API was used.
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
today, all oopses contain a version number of the kernel, which is nice
because the people who actually do bother to read the oops get this
vital bit of information always without having to ask the reporter in
another round trip.
However, WARN_ON() and many other dump_stack() users right now lack this
information; the patch below adds this. This information is essential
for getting people to use their time effectively when looking at these
things; in addition, it's essential for tools that try to collect
statistics about defects.
Please consider, since its so simple and important for long term kernel
quality processes.
The code is identical between 32/64 bit; a lot of this code should be
unified over time, the patch keeps the identical-ness intact.
