[RFC PATCH v4 07/21] watchdog/hardlockup: Define a generic function to detect hardlockups

[RFC PATCH v4 07/21] watchdog/hardlockup: Define a generic function to detect hardlockups

[Ricardo Neri]

The procedure to detect hardlockups is independent of the underlying
mechanism that generates the non-maskable interrupt used to drive the
detector. Thus, it can be put in a separate, generic function. In this
manner, it can be invoked by various implementations of the NMI watchdog.

For this purpose, move the bulk of watchdog_overflow_callback() to the
new function inspect_for_hardlockups(). This function can then be called
from the applicable NMI handlers.

[RFC PATCH v4 08/21] watchdog/hardlockup: Decouple the hardlockup detector from perf

[Ricardo Neri]

The current default implementation of the hardlockup detector assumes that
it is implemented using perf events. However, the hardlockup detector can
be driven by other sources of non-maskable interrupts (e.g., a properly
configured timer).

Group and wrap in #ifdef CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF all the code
specific to perf: create and manage perf events, stop and start the perf-
based detector.

The generic portion of the detector (monitor the timers' thresholds, check
timestamps and detect hardlockups as well as the implementation of
arch_touch_nmi_watchdog()) is now selected with the new intermediate config
symbol CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_CORE.

The perf-based implementation of the detector selects the new intermediate
symbol. Other implementations should do the same.

[RFC PATCH v4 10/21] watchdog/hardlockup: Add function to enable NMI watchdog on all allowed CPUs at once

[Ricardo Neri]

When there are more than one implementation of the NMI watchdog, there may
be situations in which switching from one to another is needed (e.g., if
the time-stamp counter becomes unstable, the HPET-based NMI watchdog can
no longer be used.

The perf-based implementation of the hardlockup detector makes use of
various per-CPU variables which are accessed via this_cpu operations.
Hence, each CPU needs to enable its own NMI watchdog if using the perf
implementation.

Add functionality to switch from one NMI watchdog to another and do it
from each allowed CPU.
