2 * Detect hard and soft lockups on a system
4 * started by Don Zickus, Copyright (C) 2010 Red Hat, Inc.
6 * this code detects hard lockups: incidents in where on a CPU
7 * the kernel does not respond to anything except NMI.
9 * Note: Most of this code is borrowed heavily from softlockup.c,
10 * so thanks to Ingo for the initial implementation.
11 * Some chunks also taken from arch/x86/kernel/apic/nmi.c, thanks
12 * to those contributors as well.
