Subject: [PATCH] enable K7 nmi watchdog
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2001 16:16:59 +0100 (MET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200101131516.QAA24636@harpo.it.uu.se> (raw)
This patch (against 2.4.0-ac8) _may_ enable the NMI watchdog on
some K7 systems. It won't help if you have an old K7 without a
local APIC, or if your BIOS disables it.
This is a quick hack to test the mechanism -- I'll submit a
cleaner patch later if this one works.
If you try this, please cc: me the result (positive or negative)
and a copy of the kernel's boot log.
