[PATCH 9/10] Use safe_apic_wait_icr_idle in safe_apic_wait_icr_idle - i386

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Use safe_apic_wait_icr_idle to check ICR idle bit if the vector is
NMI_VECTOR to avoid potential hangups in the event of crash when kdump
tries to stop the other CPUs.
