From 7de81dfd060513f3e573bc23e77e7c90ead282e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sasha Levin Date: Sun, 10 Mar 2013 21:54:41 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: trigger all-cpu backtrace when locked up and going to panic Send an NMI to all CPUs when a lockup is detected and the lockup watchdog code is configured to panic. This gives us a fairly uptodate snapshot of all CPUs in the system. This lets us get stack trace of all CPUs which makes life easier trying to debug a deadlock, and the NMI doesn't change anything since the next step is a kernel panic.
