softlockup: add a /proc tuning parameter

2007-10-17T15:42:47Z

Control the trigger limit for softlockup warnings. This is useful for debugging softlockups, by lowering the softlockup_thresh to identify possible softlockups earlier. This patch: 1. Adds a sysctl softlockup_thresh with valid values of 1-60s (Higher value to disable false positives) 2. Changes the softlockup printk to print the cpu softlockup time [akpm@linux-foundation.org: Fix various warnings and add definition of "two"] Signed-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai Signed-off-by: Shai Fultheim Acked-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] x86: add sysctl for kstack_depth_to_print

2006-12-07T01:14:11Z

Add sysctl for kstack_depth_to_print. This lets users change the amount of raw stack data printed in dump_stack() without having to reboot. Signed-off-by: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen

[PATCH] document the core-dump-to-a-pipe patch

2006-10-11T18:14:22Z

The pipe-a-coredump-to-a-program feature was undocumented. *Grumble*. NB: a good enhancement to that patch would be: save all the stuff that a core file can get from the %x expansions in the environment.

[PATCH] Fix docs for fs.suid_dumpable

2006-08-27T18:01:28Z

Sergey Vlasov noticed that there is not kernel.suid_dumpable, but fs.suid_dumpable. How KERN_SETUID_DUMPABLE ended up in fs_table[]? Hell knows... Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] suspend-to-ram: allow video options to be set at runtime

2006-02-21T04:00:10Z

Currently, acpi video options can only be set on kernel command line. That's little inflexible; I'd like userland s2ram application that just works, and modifying kernel command line according to whitelist is not fun. It is better to just allow s2ram application to set video options just before suspend (according to the whitelist). This implements sysctl to allow setting suspend video options without reboot. (akpm: Documentation updates for this new sysctl are pending..) Signed-off-by: Pavel Machek Cc: "Brown, Len" Cc: "Antonino A. Daplas" Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
