I'm a little worried about making emergency restart more complex.
Another thing that worries me is that emergency_restart() doesn't
reset the box -- it sends INIT. We could do better by using the ACPI
FADT reset register (hopefully that's connected to RESET).
reboot was always a bit fragile - i think we should only do that if we
find a box where the FADT reset works better than the first-wave
approaches we try.
It worked on my host. Since it will fall back to keyboard reset and
triple fault, it seems fairly safe.
Which seems to be what we want? Maybe we should just try acpi_reboot()
before the other stuff.
perhaps in a separate commit, for v2.6.28 at the earliest.
I'll send a patch. I don't think my earlier patch is worthwhile as all
machines with VT are acpi capable.
