Hi Hiroshi,
I know this wasn't your code to begin with but, how does this function
exit? I mean, we set an array where each index per online cpu is set to
one, then do an "nmi_allbutself", and then wait on those indexes to turn
zero, one at a time. If we are CPU 0 here, we set that index to 1, then
enter the loop, and will block forever on this "while" loop below.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
