Subject: [Patch] IA64 Kdump don't clear vector in kexec_disable_iosapic
Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2006 04:40:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1161751225.2592.20.camel@linux-znh> (raw)


Hi Tony,
	This patch is from Naoaki-san.
	Mask IOSAPIC will make the following EOI write to IOSAPIC fail because
IOSAPIC will not be able to find RTE entry.
        However move EOI write before IOSAPIC mask will leave a small
racy windows between them for interrupts. So mask IOSAPIC but leave the
vector field.

	The patch is against your test tree.
