From 97f7f8189fe54e3cfe324ef9ad35064f3d2d3bff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Richter Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2011 16:21:10 +0200 Subject: oprofile, x86: Fix crash when unloading module (nmi timer mode) If oprofile uses the nmi timer interrupt there is a crash while unloading the module. The bug can be triggered with oprofile build as module and kernel parameter nolapic set. This patch fixes this. oprofile: using NMI timer interrupt.
