From 2fbe7b25c8edaf2d10e6c1a4cc9f8afe714c4764 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Don Zickus Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 10:52:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Remove un/set_nmi_callback and reserve/release_lapic_nmi functions Removes the un/set_nmi_callback and reserve/release_lapic_nmi functions as they are no longer needed. The various subsystems are modified to register with the die_notifier instead. Also includes compile fixes by Andrew Morton.

For many environments such as scientific computing it is preferable that the box is taken out and the error dealt with than an uncorrected parity/ECC error get propogated. A small number of systems do generate NMI's for bizarre random reasons such as power management so the default is unchanged. In other respects the new proc/sys entry works like the existing panic controls already in that directory. This is separate to the edac support - EDAC allows supported chipsets to handle ECC errors well, this change allows unsupported cases to at least panic rather than cause problems further down the line.
