26 * The hangcheck-timer driver uses the TSC to catch delays that
27 * jiffies does not notice. A timer is set. When the timer fires, it
28 * checks whether it was delayed and if that delay exceeds a given
8dfba4d7 29 * margin of error. The hangcheck_tick module parameter takes the timer
1da177e4
LT
30 * duration in seconds. The hangcheck_margin parameter defines the
31 * margin of error, in seconds. The defaults are 60 seconds for the
32 * timer and 180 seconds for the margin of error. IOW, a timer is set
33 * for 60 seconds. When the timer fires, the callback checks the
34 * actual duration that the timer waited. If the duration exceeds the
35 * alloted time and margin (here 60 + 180, or 240 seconds), the machine
36 * is restarted. A healthy machine will have the duration match the
37 * expected timeout very closely.
