From c277443cfc29b1623b4923219ff0bdb48b91b589 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 8 Dec 2010 15:29:02 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Stop all counters on reboot Use the reboot notifier to detach all running counters on reboot, this solves a problem with kexec where the new kernel doesn't expect running counters (rightly so). It will however decrease the coverage of the NMI watchdog. Making a kexec specific reboot notifier callback would be best, however that would require touching all notifier callback handlers as they are not properly structured to deal with new state. As a compromise, place the perf reboot notifier at the very last position in the list. Reported-by: Yinghai Lu Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Vivek Goyal Cc: Eric W.
