Hardlockups are bugs that cause the CPU to loop in kernel mode
for more than 10 seconds, without letting other interrupts have a
chance to run. The current stack trace is displayed upon detection
and the system will stay locked up.
- The overhead should be minimal. A periodic hrtimer runs to
- generate interrupts and kick the watchdog task every 4 seconds.
- An NMI is generated every 10 seconds or so to check for hardlockups.
-
- The frequency of hrtimer and NMI events and the soft and hard lockup
- thresholds can be controlled through the sysctl watchdog_thresh.
