Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/kdump: Stop all other CPUs before running crash handlers
Date: Tue, 3 Aug 2010 16:39:41 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100803063941.GM29316@kryten> (raw)


During kdump we run the crash handlers first then stop all other CPUs.
We really want to stop all CPUs as close to the fail as possible and also
have a very controlled environment for running the crash handlers, so it
makes sense to reverse the order.
