Linux kernel 动态调试

何时使用

#if defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG)
#include <linux/dynamic_debug.h>

/* dynamic_pr_debug() uses pr_fmt() internally so we don't need it here */
#define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \
	dynamic_pr_debug(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#elif defined(DEBUG)
#define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \
	printk(KERN_DEBUG pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__)
#else
#define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \
	no_printk(KERN_DEBUG pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__)
#endif

/*

可以看到pr_debug 会用到，其他用到的暂不举例，一般是是有宏CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG 条件判断的

官方介绍

操作方法

通过看Kconfig文件或者执行make menuconfig 查看如何打开kernel动态调试宏

可以把编译选项编译进内核或者手动修改文件（debugfs 文件控制）

CONFIG_PRINTK=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y

现在内核已经支持，只需后面几步操作即可看到动态打印效果

实验

正常在下面目录有很多打印

/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

可以用cat 命令打开，最好结合grep 命令使用

查看举例

"internal phy\012"
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:163 [dwmac_meson]network_interface_setup =_ "wol not set\012"
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:166 [dwmac_meson]network_interface_setup =_ "Ethernet :got wol %d .set it\012"
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:218 [dwmac_meson]network_interface_setup =_ "Ethernet: gpio reset ok\012"
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:227 [dwmac_meson]network_interface_setup =_ 

注意动态打印信息级别为7，在小于8（控制台打印机别）可以打印出来

1、所以加一条命令

echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk

2、打开输出

# echo -n 'file stmmac_main.c +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

对比

		snprintf(bus_id, MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, "stmmac-%x",
			 priv->plat->bus_id);

		snprintf(phy_id_fmt, MII_BUS_ID_SIZE + 3, PHY_ID_FMT, bus_id,
			 priv->plat->phy_addr);
		pr_debug("stmmac_init_phy:  trying to attach to %s\n",
			 phy_id_fmt);

		phydev = phy_connect(dev, phy_id_fmt, &stmmac_adjust_link,
				     interface);

	}

3、结果
