[ Upstream commit 5e008df11c55228a86a1bae692cc2002503572c9 ]
Patch series "watchdog/hardlockup: Add the buddy hardlockup detector", v5.
This patch series adds the "buddy" hardlockup detector. In brief, the
buddy hardlockup detector can detect hardlockups without arch-level
support by having CPUs checkup on a "buddy" CPU periodically.
Given the new design of this patch series, testing all combinations is
fairly difficult. I've attempted to make sure that all combinations of
CONFIG_ options are good, but it wouldn't surprise me if I missed
something. I apologize in advance and I'll do my best to fix any
problems that are found.
This patch (of 18):
The real watchdog_update_hrtimer_threshold() is defined in
kernel/watchdog_hld.c. That file is included if
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF and the function is defined in that file
if CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_CHECK_TIMESTAMP.
The dummy version of the function in "nmi.h" didn't get that quite right.
While this doesn't appear to be a huge deal, it's nice to make it
consistent.
It doesn't break builds because CHECK_TIMESTAMP is only defined by x86 so
others don't get a double definition, and x86 uses perf lockup detector,
so it gets the out of line version.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
