Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] xen/x86: Improvements to asm assertions
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2015 11:51:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1429008700-10718-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)

In XenServer, we have a single server which occasionally finds interrupts
unexpectedtly in the wrong state (I suspect the SMM handler).  However,
asserts from ASSERT_INTERRUPTS_{EN,DIS}ABLED are quite opaque, being an
unqualified fatal #UD.

Changes in v2:
 * Use mergable string sections
 * Use \@ rather than raw numbers
 * Style fixes

  xen/x86: Infrastructure to create BUG_FRAMES in asm code
  xen/x86: Use real assert frames for ASSERT_INTERRUPTS_{EN,DIS}ABLED
  DO NOT APPLY - test code for this series
