[PATCH] acpi/ghes: Make ghes_panic_timeout adjustable as a parameter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There is a problem report that when debugging a hard-to-reproduce panic
issue, user wanted the kernel to not reboot by adding "panic=0" in
kernel cmdline, so that the panic context could be kept, say the panic
was caught randomly in the mid-night, and user hoped to check it in
the morning. GHES panic handler may overwrite that user setting and
force to reboot after 'ghes_panic_timeout'(30) seconds.

Make 'ghes_panic_timeout' a parameter can provide user some flexibility
to change the timeout on demand, without changing current behavior.
