[PATCH 3.19-rc6 v16 6/6] ARM: Add support for on-demand backtrace of other CPUs

From: Daniel Thompson
Date: Tue Feb 03 2015 - 14:10:50 EST


Replicate the x86 code to trigger a backtrace using an NMI and hook
it up to IPI on ARM.

The code differs slightly from the code on x86 because, on ARM, we do
now know at compile time whether a platform is capable of supporting FIQ.
We must avoid using an IPI to request a backtrace from the CPU on which
the backtrace was requested if interrupts are disabled and fall back to
generating it directly.

In addition the implementation of arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() the
patch also includes a few small items of plumbing that must be hooked
up for the new code to work.
