Linus Torvalds e3da8db055 A single fix for the mechanism to park CPUs with an INIT IPI.
On shutdown or kexec, the kernel tries to park the non-boot CPUs with an
 INIT IPI. But the same code path is also used by the crash utility. If the
 CPU which panics is not the boot CPU then it sends an INIT IPI to the boot
 CPU which resets the machine. Prevent this by validating that the CPU which
 runs the stop mechanism is the boot CPU. If not, leave the other CPUs in
 HLT.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
