Prevent crash_kexec() from deadlocking on ioapic_lock. When crash_kexec() is executed on a CPU, the CPU will take ioapic_lock in disable_IO_APIC(). So if the cpu gets an NMI while locking ioapic_lock, a deadlock will happen. In this patch, ioapic_lock is zapped/initialized before disable_IO_APIC(). You can reproduce this deadlock the following way: 1. Add mdelay(1000) after raw_spin_lock_irqsave() in native_ioapic_set_affinity()@arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c Although the deadlock can occur without this modification, it will increase the potential of the deadlock problem. 2. Build and install the kernel 3. Set up the OS which will run panic() and kexec when NMI is injected # echo "kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf # vim /etc/default/grub add "nmi_watchdog=0 crashkernel=256M" in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line # grub2-mkconfig 4. Reboot the OS 5. Run following command for each vcpu on the guest # while true; do echo <CPU num> > /proc/irq/<IO-APIC-edge or IO-APIC-fasteoi>/smp_affinitity; done; By running this command, cpus will get ioapic_lock for setting affinity. 6. Inject NMI (push a dump button or execute 'virsh inject-nmi <domain>' if you use VM). After injecting NMI, panic() is called in an nmi-handler context. Then, kexec will normally run in panic(), but the operation will be stopped by deadlock on ioapic_lock in crash_kexec()->machine_crash_shutdown()-> native_machine_crash_shutdown()->disable_IO_APIC()->clear_IO_APIC()-> clear_IO_APIC_pin()->ioapic_read_entry().
