There are a lot of callers of emergency_restart(). Why is the BMC reboot special, and how many of the emergency_restart() callers really be using orderly_reboot()? We have /proc/sys/kernel/poweroff_cmd. Should we have /proc/sys/kernel/reboot_cmd as well? If not, kernel/reboot.c:reboot_cmd[] can be made static ;) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
