which kernel thread handles NMIs?

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

 



We're running with the 3.4 kernel with RT patch, and we're trying to debug some issues.

One of the issues is that the magic sysrq "l" command to show a stack backtrace on all CPUs doesn't seem to work, though other magic sysrq commands do work properly.

Looking at the code, for X86 it seems to call apic->send_IPI_all(NMI_VECTOR);

Does anyone know what kernel thread would handle NMI_VECTOR? I want to make sure its priority is sufficiently high.

Thanks,
Chris
