Subject: [PATCH RT] disable preemption on running show all regs.
Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2007 16:17:56 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1182284276.15228.25.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

The show all regs sysrq uses the nmi function to do it. But this
function expects preemption to be off, or funny things happen.
