[RFC PATCH v2 6/7] arm64: Implement IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE using pseudo-NMIs
From: Daniel Thompson
Date: Mon Sep 14 2015 - 09:29:53 EST
Recently arm64 gained the capability to (optionally) mask interrupts
using the GIC PMR rather than the CPU PSR. That allows us to introduce
an NMI-like means to handle backtrace requests.
This provides a useful debug aid by allowing the kernel to robustly show
a backtrace for every processor in the system when, for example, we hang
trying to acquire a spin lock.
