From e162b39a368f0401e41b558f430c354d12a85b37 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mandeep Singh Baines Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2009 11:08:40 -0800 Subject: softlockup: decouple hung tasks check from softlockup detection Decoupling allows: * hung tasks check to happen at very low priority * hung tasks check and softlockup to be enabled/disabled independently at compile and/or run-time * individual panic settings to be enabled disabled independently at compile and/or run-time * softlockup threshold to be reduced without increasing hung tasks poll frequency (hung task check is expensive relative to softlock watchdog) * hung task check to be zero over-head when disabled at run-time Signed-off-by: Mandeep Singh Baines Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- kernel/sysctl.c | 15 ++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'kernel/sysctl.c') diff --git a/kernel/sysctl.c b/kernel/sysctl.c index 596dc31a7116..2481ed30d2b5 100644 --- a/kernel/sysctl.c +++ b/kernel/sysctl.c @@ -805,6 +805,19 @@ static struct ctl_table kern_table[] = { .extra1 = &neg_one, .extra2 = &sixty, }, +#endif +#ifdef CONFIG_DETECT_HUNG_TASK + { + .ctl_name = CTL_UNNUMBERED, + .procname = "hung_task_panic", + .data = &sysctl_hung_task_panic, + .maxlen = sizeof(int), + .mode = 0644, + .proc_handler = &proc_dointvec_minmax, + .strategy = &sysctl_intvec, + .extra1 = &zero, + .extra2 = &one, + }, { .ctl_name = CTL_UNNUMBERED, .procname = "hung_task_check_count", @@ -820,7 +833,7 @@ static struct ctl_table kern_table[] = { .data = &sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs, .maxlen = sizeof(unsigned long), .mode = 0644, - .proc_handler = &proc_doulongvec_minmax, + .proc_handler = &proc_dohung_task_timeout_secs, .strategy = &sysctl_intvec, }, { -- cgit v1.2.3-55-g7522
