+hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace:
+================
+
+If this option is set, the kernel will send an NMI to all CPUs to dump
+their backtraces when a hung task is detected. This file shows up if
+CONFIG_DETECT_HUNG_TASK and CONFIG_SMP are enabled.
+
+0: Won't show all CPUs backtraces when a hung task is detected.
+This is the default behavior.
+
+1: Will non-maskably interrupt all CPUs and dump their backtraces when
+a hung task is detected.
