> Subject: [PATCH v11 4/6] arm64: smp: Add arch support for backtrace using
> pseudo-NMI
> 
> Enable arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() support on arm64. This enables
> things much like they are enabled on arm32 (including some of the
> funky logic around NR_IPI, nr_ipi, and MAX_IPI) but with the
> difference that, unlike arm32, we'll try to enable the backtrace to
> use pseudo-NMI.
> 
> NOTE: this patch is a squash of the little bit of code adding the
> ability to mark an IPI to try to use pseudo-NMI plus the little bit of
> code to hook things up for kgdb. This approach was decided upon in the
> discussion of v9 [1].

> This patch depends on commit 36759e343ff9 ("nmi_backtrace: allow

> Changes in v11:
> - Adjust comment about NR_IPI/MAX_IPI.
> - Don't use confusing "backed by" idiom in comment.
> - Made arm64_backtrace_ipi() static.
> 
> Changes in v10:
> - Backtrace now directly supported in smp.c
> - Squash backtrace into patch adding support for pseudo-NMI IPIs.
> 
> Changes in v9:
> - Added comments that we might not be using NMI always.
> - Fold in v8 patch #10 ("Fallback to a regular IPI if NMI isn't enabled")
> - Moved header file out of "include" since it didn't need to be there.
> - Remove arm64_supports_nmi()
> - Renamed "NMI IPI" to "debug IPI" since it might not be backed by NMI.
> - arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() no longer returns bool
> 
> Changes in v8:
> - Removed "#ifdef CONFIG_SMP" since arm64 is always SMP
> - debug_ipi_setup() and debug_ipi_teardown() no longer take cpu param
