From 5f2b0ba4d94b3ac23cbc4b7f675d98eb677a760a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Don Zickus Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 11:22:23 -0500 Subject: x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove the old nmi_watchdog Now that we have a new nmi_watchdog that is more generic and sits on top of the perf subsystem, we really do not need the old nmi_watchdog any more. In addition, the old nmi_watchdog doesn't really work if you are using the default clocksource, hpet. The old nmi_watchdog code relied on local apic interrupts to determine if the cpu is still alive. With hpet as the clocksource, these interrupts don't increment any more and the old nmi_watchdog triggers false postives. This piece removes the old nmi_watchdog code and stubs out any variables and functions calls. The stubs are the same ones used by the new nmi_watchdog code, so it should be well tested.
