[Xen-devel] Diagnose stuff
Hi,
while implementing cpupool support in XEN I had to track down some issues
with deadlocks. Is there any interest in patches for the following?
- compile time switchable spinlock timeout detection
- printout of state of ALL cpus to console in case of hypervisor crash
- some enhancements in lock handling to reduce (potential) latency:
Today in *lock_irq and *lock_irqsave interrupts are disabled and then
spinning is started. If the lock is not obtained, enabling and disabling of
IRQs in the spinloop would block IRQs as short as possible.
