From c7ff0d9c92435e836e13aaa8d0e56d4000424bcc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: TAMUKI Shoichi Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2010 18:03:28 -0700 Subject: panic: keep blinking in spite of long spin timer mode To keep panic_timeout accuracy when running under a hypervisor, the current implementation only spins on long time (1 second) calls to mdelay. That brings a good effect, but the problem is the keyboard LEDs don't blink at all on that situation. This patch changes to call to panic_blink_enter() between every mdelay and keeps blinking in spite of long spin timer mode. The time to call to mdelay is now 100ms. Even this change will keep panic_timeout accuracy enough when running under a hypervisor.
