Subject: [PATCH 1/4 v2] nmi: Provide the option to issue an NMI back trace to every cpu but current
Date: Fri,  4 Apr 2014 16:47:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1396644430-70649-2-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1396644430-70649-1-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com>

From: Aaron Tomlin <atomlin@redhat.com>

Some times it is preferred not to use the
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() routine when one wants
to avoid capturing a back trace for current.
For instance if one was previously captured
recently.

This patch provides a new routine namely
trigger_allbutself_cpu_backtrace() which offers
the flexibility to issue an NMI to every cpu but
current and capture a back trace accordingly.

[Added stub in #else clause - dcz]
