Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: OCTEON: Improve _machine_halt implementation.
Date: Fri, 24 May 2013 10:23:02 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369416182-7345-1-git-send-email-ddaney.cavm@gmail.com> (raw)

From: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com>

As noted by Wladislav Wiebe:
   $ halt
   ..
   Sent SIGKILL to all processes
   Requesting system halt
   [66.729373] System halted.
   [66.733244]

This is an alternative fix to the one sent by Wladislav.  We kill the
watchdog for each CPU and then spin in WAIT with interrupts disabled.
This is the lowest power mode for the OCTEON.  If we were to spin with
interrupts enabled, we would get a continual stream of warning messages
and backtraces from the lockup detector, so I chose to disable
interrupts.
