nmi_watchdog= [KNL,BUGS=X86] Debugging features for SMP kernels
Format: [panic,][num]
- Valid num: 0,1,2
+ Valid num: 0
0 - turn nmi_watchdog off
- 1 - use the IO-APIC timer for the NMI watchdog
- 2 - use the local APIC for the NMI watchdog using
- a performance counter. Note: This will use one
- performance counter and the local APIC's performance
- vector.
When panic is specified, panic when an NMI watchdog
timeout occurs.
This is useful when you use a panic=... timeout and
need the box quickly up again.
- Instead of 1 and 2 it is possible to use the following
- symbolic names: lapic and ioapic
- Example: nmi_watchdog=2 or nmi_watchdog=panic,lapic
netpoll.carrier_timeout=
[NET] Specifies amount of time (in seconds) that
noapic [SMP,APIC] Tells the kernel to not make use of any

nowb [ARM]
reset_devices [KNL] Force drivers to reset the underlying device

- resource_alloc_from_bottom
- Allocate new resources from the beginning of available

- report a bug.
