Linus, please pull the kgdb git tree fixes for 2.6.27-rc8
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git for_linus
Summary:
Testing the kgdb with kvm has found 2 problems:
- NMI code has a race where it can be invoked twice
- The softlockup watchdog must be touched when running
with CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_SOFTLOCKUP_PANIC_VALUE=1, else
the kernel executes a reboot if debugged for too long.
Short log follows:
---
Jan Kiszka (1):
kgdb, x86: Avoid invoking kgdb_nmicallback twice per NMI
Jason Wessel (1):
kgdb: call touch_softlockup_watchdog on resume
