Linux kernel source tree
The soft lockup detector lacks a mechanism to identify interrupt storms as root cause of a lockup. To enable this the detector needs a mechanism to snapshot the interrupt count statistics on a CPU when the detector observes a potential lockup scenario and compare that against the interrupt count when it warns about the lockup later on. The number of interrupts in that period give a hint whether the lockup might have been caused by an interrupt storm. Instead of having extra storage in the lockup detector and accessing the internals of the interrupt descriptor directly, add a snapshot member to the per CPU irq_desc::kstat_irq structure and provide interfaces to take a snapshot of all interrupts on the current CPU and to retrieve the delta of a specific interrupt later on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
