I have a system which is causing all kinds of problems. It has 8 NUMA nodes, and lots of cores that can fight over cachelines. If things are not working _perfectly_, then NMIs can take longer than expected. If we get too many of them backed up to each other, we can easily end up in a situation where we are doing nothing *but* running NMIs. The biggest problem, though, is that this happens _silently_. You might be lucky to get an hrtimer warning, but most of the time system simply hangs. This patch should at least give us some warning before we fall off the cliff. the warnings look like this: nmi_handle: perf_event_nmi_handler() took: 26095071 ns The message is triggered whenever we notice the longest NMI we've seen to date. You can always view and reset this value via the debugfs interface if you like.
