[PATCH v3 2/5] ARM: add basic support for on-demand backtrace of other CPUs

From: Daniel Thompson
Date: Mon Sep 08 2014 - 11:30:56 EST


From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add basic infrastructure for triggering a backtrace of other CPUs
via an IPI, preferably at FIQ level. It is intended that this shall
be used for cases where we have detected that something has already
failed in the kernel.
