Release kernels have no KDB backends enabled, so they discard an NMI if it is not due to a hardware failure. This includes NMIs from IPMI BMCs and hypervisors. Furthermore, the interaction of panic_on_nmi, kdb_on_nmi, and debugger_on_panic is confusing. Respond to all NMIs according to panic_on_nmi and debugger_on_panic. Remove kdb_on_nmi. Expand the meaning of panic_on_nmi by making it a bitfield. There are currently two bits: one for NMIs due to hardware failure, and one for all others. Leave room for more. If panic_on_nmi and debugger_on_panic are both true, don't actually panic, but directly enter the debugger, to allow someone to leave the debugger and [hopefully] resume normal execution.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
