The kernel will print several warnings in a short period of time
when it stalls. Like this:
First warning:
[ 7100.097547] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 7100.097550] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eno2 (xxx): transmit queue 8 timed out
[ 7100.097571] WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 0 at net/sched/sch_generic.c:467
dev_watchdog+0x260/0x270
...
Second warning:
[ 7147.756952] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
[ 7147.756958] rcu: 24-....: (59999 ticks this GP) idle=546/1/0x400000000000000
softirq=367 3137/3673146 fqs=13844
[ 7147.756960] (t=60001 jiffies g=4322709 q=133381)
[ 7147.756962] NMI backtrace for cpu 24
...
We calculate that the transmit queue start stall should occur before
7095s according to watchdog_timeo, the rcu start stall at 7087s.
These two times are close together, it is difficult to confirm which
happened first.
To let users know the exact time the stall started, print msecs when
the transmit queue time out.

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.
