Subject: [RFC][PATCH v4 -next 3/4]Skip subsequent kmsg_dump() function calls in panic path
Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2012 12:39:59 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5C4C569E8A4B9B42A84A977CF070A35B2C5827AF86@USINDEVS01.corp.hds.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5C4C569E8A4B9B42A84A977CF070A35B2C5827AF7F@USINDEVS01.corp.hds.com>
This patch skips subsequent kmsg_dump() function calls in panic path
With this patch, we can avoid deadlock due to the subsequent calls.
Actually, kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_EMREG) is called after kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_PANIC)
when panic_timeout variable is set.
