[PATCH v2] powerpc/crash: save cpu register data in crash_smp_send_stop()

Hari Bathini hbathini at linux.ibm.com
Thu Jun 30 16:49:42 AEST 2022


During kdump, two set of NMI IPIs are sent to secondary CPUs, if
'crash_kexec_post_notifiers' option is set. The first set of NMI IPIs
to stop the CPUs and the other set to collect register data. Instead,
capture register data for secondary CPUs while stopping them itself.
Also, fallback to smp_send_stop() in case the function gets called
without kdump configured.

Changes in v2:
* For INTERRUPT_SYSTEM_RESET case, stopped sending IPIs again to
  secondary CPUs via crash_kexec_prepare_cpus().
* Added comments where appropriate.
