Linus,
Please pull the latest x86/splitlock git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-splitlock-2021-06-28
# HEAD: d28397eaf4c27947a1ffc720d42e8b3a33ae1e2a Documentation/x86: Add ratelimit in buslock.rst
Changes in this cycle were:
- Add the "ratelimit:N" parameter to the split_lock_detect= boot option,
to rate-limit the generation of bus-lock exceptions. This is both
easier on system resources and kinder to offending applications than
the current policy of outright killing them.
- Document the split-lock detection feature and its parameters.
Thanks,
Ingo
