The word "safe" here used in the sense that the commands cannot be used to leak sensitive data from the memory, and cannot be used to change program flow in a predefined manner. These flags will be used by the "kiosk" mode, i.e. when it is possible for the ordinary user to enter the KDB (or user can get the access to KDB after the crash), but we do not allow user to read dump the memory [and thus read some sensitive data]. The following commands were marked as "safe": Display exception frame Stack traceback Display stack for process Display stack all processes Backtrace current process on each cpu Execute cmd for each element in linked list Show environment variables Set environment variables Display Help Message Switch to new cpu Display active task list Switch to another task Reboot the machine immediately List loaded kernel modules Magic SysRq key Display syslog buffer Define a set of commands, down to endefcmd Summarize the system Disable NMI entry to KDB The following commands were marked as safe when issued with no arguments: Continue Execution And the following commands are unsafe: Clear Breakpoint Enable Breakpoint Disable Breakpoint Single step Single step to branch/call Continue Execution (with address argument) Display Memory Contents Display Raw Memory Display Physical Memory Display Memory Symbolically Modify Memory Contents Display Registers Modify Registers Backtrace process given its struct task address Send a signal to a process Enter kgdb mode Display per_cpu variables Note that we mark "display registers" command unsafe, this is because single stepping + constantly dumping registers in string or memory functions can be used as a way to read sensitive data (it's actually trivial to exploit). Later we can do a bit better, i.e. not displaying general-purpose registers, but printing control registers.
