H A Dmain.cdiff 8446f1d391f3d27e6bf9c43d4cbcdac0ca720417 Wed Sep 07 00:16:27 CEST 2005 Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> [PATCH] detect soft lockups

This patch adds a new kernel debug feature: CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP.

When enabled then per-CPU watchdog threads are started, which try to run
once per second. If they get delayed for more than 10 seconds then a
callback from the timer interrupt detects this condition and prints out a
warning message and a stack dump (once per lockup incident). The feature
is otherwise non-intrusive, it doesnt try to unlock the box in any way, it
only gets the debug info out, automatically, and on all CPUs affected by
the lockup.
