From: Cliff Wickman Date: Tue, 20 Jul 2010 23:09:05 +0000 (-0500) Subject: x86, UV: Make kdump avoid stack dumps X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5edd19af18a36a4e22c570b1b969179e0ca1fe4c;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git x86, UV: Make kdump avoid stack dumps UV NMI callback's should not write stack dumps when a kdump is to be written. When invoking the crash kernel to write a dump, kdump_nmi_shootdown_cpus() uses NMI's to get all the cpu's to save their register context and halt. But the NMI interrupt handler runs a callback list. This patch sets a flag to prevent any of those callbacks from interfering with the halt of the cpu. For UV, which currently has the only callback to which this is relevant, the uv_handle_nmi() callback should not do dumping of stacks. The 'in_crash_kexec' flag is defined as an extern in kdebug.h firstly because x2apic_uv_x.c includes it. Secondly because some future callback might need the flag to know that it should not enter the debugger. (Such a scenario was in fact present in the 2.6.32 kernel, SuSE distribution, where a call to kdb needed to be avoided.) Signed-off-by: Cliff Wickman LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: H.
