      lockup_detector: Update some config · e16bb1d7
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      We kept CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP around for compatibility with
older configs. But it was enabled by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL.

So if we want to enable CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR on configs that had
CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP, all we need is to have the same enabling
by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. We can then remove
CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP directly.

So tag CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR as default y. This is what we want for
most serious kernel debugging anyway.

And also forbid the lockup detector in S390 as it was for the
previous softlockup detector, event though the true reason for that
is not outlined.

      x86, watchdog: Fix build error in hw_nmi.c · 5e85391b
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      On some configs the following build error triggers:

 arch/x86/kernel/apic/hw_nmi.c:35: error: 'apic' undeclared (first use in this function)
 arch/x86/kernel/apic/hw_nmi.c:35: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
 arch/x86/kernel/apic/hw_nmi.c:35: error: for each function it appears in.)

Because asm/apic.h was only included implicitly. Include it explicitly.

      lockup_detector: Make BOOTPARAM_SOFTLOCKUP_PANIC depend on LOCKUP_DETECTOR · 89d7ce2a
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      Panic on softlockups was still depending on the softlockup detector.
But the latter has been merged into the lockup detector now.

Let's update this config dependency.

      lockup_detector: Separate touch_nmi_watchdog code path from touch_watchdog · d7c54733
      Don Zickus authored 
      When I combined the nmi_watchdog (hardlockup) and softlockup code, I
also combined the paths the touch_watchdog and touch_nmi_watchdog took.
This may not be the best idea as pointed out by Frederic W., that the
touch_watchdog case probably should not reset the hardlockup count.

Therefore the patch below falls back to the previous idea of keeping
the touch_nmi_watchdog a superset of the touch_watchdog case.

      x86: Move trigger_all_cpu_backtrace to its own die_notifier · 7cbb7e7f
      Don Zickus authored 
      As part of the transition of the nmi watchdog to something more
generic, the trigger_all_cpu_backtrace code is getting left behind.
Put it in its own die_notifier so it can still be used.

V2:
- use arch_spin_locks

      Now that is no longer compiled or used, just remove it.

Also move some of the code wrapped with DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP to the
LOCKUP_DETECTOR wrappers because that is the code that uses it now.

      lockup_detector: Combine nmi_watchdog and softlockup detector · 58687acb
      Don Zickus authored 
      The new nmi_watchdog (which uses the perf event subsystem) is very
similar in structure to the softlockup detector.  Using Ingo's
suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file:
kernel/watchdog.c.

Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup
detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every
60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups.

To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I
implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event
overflow event.  If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is
most likely in trouble.

To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the
previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires.
If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the
warning is printed to the console.

I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths
work.

V2:
- cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination
- surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI
- seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem
- re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space
- added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases
- removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events

V3:
- comment cleanups
- drop support for older softlockup code
- per_cpu cleanups
- completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector
- use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection
- #ifdef cleanups
- rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR
- documentation additions

V4:
- documentation fixes
- convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var
- powerpc compile fixes

V5:
- split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups

TODO:
- figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call
  (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period
