[PATCH] x86: Fix i386 nmi_watchdog that does not trigger die_nmi
Fix i386 nmi_watchdog that does not meet watchdog timeout condition. It
does not hit die_nmi when it should be triggered, because the current
nmi_watchdog_tick in arch/i386/kernel/nmi.c never count up alert_counter
like this:
void nmi_watchdog_tick (struct pt_regs * regs) {
if (last_irq_sums[cpu] == sum) {
alert_counter[cpu]++; <- count up alert_counter, but
if (alert_counter[cpu] == 5*nmi_hz)
die_nmi(regs, "NMI Watchdog detected LOCKUP");
alert_counter[cpu] = 0; <- reset alert_counter
This patch changes it back to the previous and working version.
This was found and originally written by Kohta NAKASHIMA.
(akpm: also uninline write_watchdog_counter(), saving 184 byets)
