Subject: WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/kvmclock.c:127
Date: Tue, 5 Jun 2012 20:20:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1338920459.20088.41.camel@mendozza.osrc.amd.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I observed the following warning during testing of 3.5-rc1, involving
some intensive and random CPU online state toggling through sysfs. It
only shows up about 1 out of 500 times. Also, there was no KVM guest
running on the system.

This is a regression introduced by the following commit:
commit 3b5d56b9317fa7b5407dff1aa7b115bf6cdbd494
Author: Eric B Munson <emunson@mgebm.net>
Date: Sat Mar 10 14:37:26 2012 -0500
kvmclock: Add functions to check if the host has stopped the vm
When a host stops or suspends a VM it will set a flag to show this. The
watchdog will use these functions to determine if a softlockup is real, or the
result of a suspended VM.
