3 Using RCU to Protect Dynamic NMI Handlers
10 how to do this, drawing loosely from Zwane Mwaikambo's NMI-timer
21 The dummy_nmi_callback() function is a "dummy" NMI handler that does
23 the NMI handler to take the default machine-specific action::
28 NMI handler::
45 The do_nmi() function processes each NMI. It first disables preemption
47 count of NMIs. It then invokes the NMI handler stored in the nmi_callback
49 default_do_nmi() function to handle a machine-specific NMI. Finally,
63 Back to the discussion of NMI and RCU::
70 The set_nmi_callback() function registers an NMI handler. Note that any
73 writes, the rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the NMI handler sees the
81 This function unregisters an NMI handler, restoring the original
82 dummy_nmi_handler(). However, there may well be an NMI handler

97 Since NMI handlers disable preemption, synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed
98 not to return until all ongoing NMI handlers exit. It is therefore safe
