The LOCKUP_DETECTOR configuration option split into the
SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR and HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR configuration option some
time ago. The HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR option is only working on some
architectures, but SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR should work everywhere. Replace
KERNEL_LOCKUP_DETECTOR with KERNEL_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR.
LOCKUP_DETECTOR will be selected by SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR automatically.

Softlockups are bugs that cause the kernel to loop in kernel
mode for more than 20 seconds, without giving other tasks a
chance to run. The current stack trace is displayed upon
detection and the system will stay locked up.
Softlockups are bugs that cause the kernel to loop in kernel
mode for more than 20 seconds, without giving other tasks a
chance to run. The current stack trace is displayed upon
detection and the system will stay locked up.
- Hardlockups are bugs that cause the CPU to loop in kernel mode
- for more than 10 seconds, without letting other interrupts have a
- chance to run. The current stack trace is displayed upon detection
- and the system will stay locked up.

- The overhead should be minimal. A periodic hrtimer runs to
- generate interrupts and kick the watchdog task every 4 seconds.
- An NMI is generated every 10 seconds or so to check for hardlockups.
-
- The frequency of hrtimer and NMI events and the soft and hard lockup
- thresholds can be controlled through the sysctl watchdog_thresh.
