The main focus was moving the GHES NMI driver to its own NMI subtype to avoid slowing down perf handling. Then I decided to move the default external NMI handler to its own routine. Then finally, I needed to see which NMI handlers were registered so I hacked up /proc/interrupts to show me. Tested mostly on HP boxes that have GHES enabled and having the iLO send NMIs to panic the box (using hpwdt driver). Ran perf on other GHES enabled boxes to test performance results. Update: I realized I didn't send this to lkml initially. Might be why no one has commented on it more. Don Zickus (5): x86, nmi: Add new nmi type 'external' x86, nmi: Add boot line option 'panic_on_unrecovered_nmi' and 'panic_on_io_nmi' x86, nmi: Remove 'reason' value from unknown nmi output x86, nmi: Move default external NMI handler to its own routine x86, nmi: Add better NMI stats to /proc/interrupts and show handlers Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt | 9 ++ arch/x86/include/asm/nmi.h | 5 + arch/x86/kernel/irq.c | 3 + arch/x86/kernel/nmi.c | 199 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- drivers/acpi/apei/ghes.c | 4 +- drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c | 24 +++-- 6 files changed, 187 insertions(+), 57 deletions(-)
