[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen: ensure timer tick is resumed even on CPU driving the resume
The core suspend/resume code is run from stop_machine on CPU0 but parts of the suspend/resume machinery (including xen_arch_resume) are run on whichever CPU happened to schedule the xenwatch kernel thread. As part of the non-core resume code xen_arch_resume is called in order to restart the timer tick on non-boot processors. The boot processor itself is taken care of by core timekeeping code. xen_arch_resume uses smp_call_function which does not call the given function on the current processor. This means that we can end up with one CPU not receiving timer ticks if the xenwatch thread happened to be scheduled on CPU > 0. Use on_each_cpu instead of smp_call_function to ensure the timer tick is resumed everywhere.
