Subject: sysrq: add show-backtrace-on-all-cpus function
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~633
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5045bcae0fb466a1dbb6af0036e56901fd7aafb7;p=linux-2.6

sysrq: add show-backtrace-on-all-cpus function

SysRQ-P is not always useful on SMP systems, since it usually ends up showing
the backtrace of a CPU that is doing just fine, instead of the backtrace of
the CPU that is having problems.

This patch adds SysRQ show-all-cpus(L), which shows the backtrace of every
active CPU in the system.  It skips idle CPUs because some SMP systems are
just too large and we already know what the backtrace of the idle task looks
like.
