From 352823160613b65fdaa558be486720a71f75ed86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 23 May 2007 13:57:37 -0700 Subject: NOHZ: Rate limit the local softirq pending warning output The warning in the NOHZ code, which triggers when a CPU goes idle with softirqs pending can fill up the logs quite quickly. Rate limit the output until we found the root cause of that problem.
