2005-06-25[PATCH] char/ds1620: use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout()Domen Puncer1-2/+1
Not sure why any driver needs to sleep for *two* ticks, so let's fix it. Use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task delays as expected. Signals are never checked for by the callers or in the function itself, so use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE instead of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. The delay is presumed to have been written when HZ==100, and thus has been multiplied by 10 to pass to msleep().

2005-06-25[PATCH] kdump: Save trap information for later analysisAlexander Nyberg2-4/+11
If we are faulting in kernel it is quite possible this will lead to a panic. Save trap number, cr2 (in case of page fault) and error_code in the current thread (these fields already exist for signal delivery but are not used here). This helps later kdump crash analyzing from user-space (a script has been submitted to dig this info out in gdb).

2005-06-25[PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exceptionAlexander Nyberg11-23/+66
Makes kexec_crashdump() take a pt_regs * as an argument. This allows to get exact register state at the point of the crash. If we come from direct panic assertion NULL will be passed and the current registers saved before crashdump. This hooks into two places: die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal fault. die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper information.
