parisc: Enable TOC (transfer of contents) feature unconditionally
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Before this patch, the TOC code used a pre-allocated stack of 16kb for
each possible CPU. That space overhead was the reason why the TOC
feature wasn't enabled by default for 32-bit kernels.

This patch rewrites the TOC code to use a per-cpu stack. That way we use
much less memory now and as such we enable the TOC feature by default on
all kernels.

Additionally the dump of the registers and the stacktrace wasn't
serialized, which led to multiple CPUs printing the stack backtrace at
once which rendered the output unreadable.
Now the backtraces are nicely serialized by a lock.

help
Most PA-RISC machines have either a switch at the back of the machine
or a command in BMC to trigger a TOC interrupt. If you say Y here a
handler will be installed which will either show a backtrace on all
CPUs, or enter a possible configured debugger like kgdb/kdb.

Note that with this option enabled, the kernel will use an additional 16KB
per possible CPU as a special stack for the TOC handler.

If you don't want to debug the Kernel, say N.
