From 90cc7d944981a6d06b49bb26fde1b490e28c90e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cliff Wickman Date: Wed, 2 Jun 2010 16:22:02 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] x86, UV: Remove BAU check for stay-busy Remove a faulty assumption that a long running BAU request has encountered a hardware problem and will never finish. Numalink congestion can make a request appear to have encountered such a problem, but it is not safe to cancel the request. If such a cancel is done but a reply is later received we can miss a TLB shootdown. We depend upon the max_bau_concurrent 'throttle' to prevent the stay-busy case from happening.
