Implement functions arch_watchdog_nmi_enable and arch_watchdog_nmi_disable to enable/disable nmi watchdog. Sparc uses arch specific nmi watchdog handler. Currently, we do not have a way to enable/disable nmi watchdog dynamically. With these patches we can enable or disable arch specific nmi watchdogs using proc or sysctl interface. Example commands. To enable: echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog To disable: echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog It can also achieved using the sysctl parameter kernel.nmi_watchdog Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@oracle.com> --- arch/sparc/kernel/nmi.c | 44 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 files changed, 43 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
