This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mips/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump friendly version in panic path to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: mips-panic-replace-smp_send_stop-with-kdump-friendly-version-in-panic-path.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 54c721b857fd45f3ad3bda695ee4f472518db02a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2016 13:54:26 -0700 Subject: mips/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump friendly version in panic path From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 54c721b857fd45f3ad3bda695ee4f472518db02a upstream. Daniel Walker reported problems which happens when crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is enabled (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/24/44). In that case, smp_send_stop() is called before entering kdump routines which assume other CPUs are still online. As the result, kdump routines fail to save other CPUs' registers. Additionally for MIPS OCTEON, it misses to stop the watchdog timer. To fix this problem, call a new kdump friendly function, crash_smp_send_stop(), instead of the smp_send_stop() when crash_kexec_post_notifiers is enabled. crash_smp_send_stop() is a weak function, and it just call smp_send_stop(). Architecture codes should override it so that kdump can work appropriately. This patch provides MIPS version.
