From 495363d380b4f4745bd8677912688654afc44020 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wessel Date: Fri, 21 May 2010 08:46:00 -0500 Subject: kdb,debug_core: adjust master cpu switch logic against new debug_core locking The kdb shell needs to enforce switching back to the original CPU that took the exception before restoring normal kernel execution. Resuming from a different CPU than what took the original exception will cause problems with spin locks that are freed from the a different processor than had taken the lock. The special logic in dbg_cpu_switch() can go away entirely with because the state of what cpus want to be masters or slaves will remain unchanged between entry and exit of the debug_core exception context.
