include: replace linux/module.h with "struct module" wherever possible

2011-10-31T23:32:32Z

The pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in terms of being included from other commonly used files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times. The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere. This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time. There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead and simply make it a few more. Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

IPMI: Add one interface to get more info of low-level IPMI device

2010-12-14T05:21:51Z

The IPMI smi_watcher will be used to catch the IPMI interface as they come or go. In order to communicate with the correct IPMI device, it should be confirmed whether it is what we wanted especially on the system with multiple IPMI devices. But the new_smi callback function of smi_watcher provides very limited info(only the interface number and dev pointer) and there is no detailed info about the low level interface. For example: which mechansim registers the IPMI interface(ACPI, PCI, DMI and so on). This is to add one interface that can get more info of low-level IPMI device. For example: the ACPI device handle will be returned for the pnp_acpi IPMI device. Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ipmi: add oem message handling

2009-04-21T20:41:48Z

Enable userspace to receive messages that a BMC transmits using an OEM medium. This is used by the HP iLO2. Based on code originally written by Patrick Schoeller. Signed-off-by: dann frazier Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ipmi: style fixes in the base code

2008-04-29T15:06:15Z

Lots of style fixes for the base IPMI driver. No functional changes. Basically fixes everything reported by checkpatch and fixes the comment style. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ipmi: run to completion fixes

2008-04-29T15:06:14Z

The "run_to_completion" mode was somewhat broken. Locks need to be avoided in run_to_completion mode, and it shouldn't be used by normal users, just internally for panic situations. This patch removes locks in run_to_completion mode and removes the user call for setting the mode. The only user was the poweroff code, but it was easily converted to use the polling interface.

IPMI: add polled interface

2007-10-18T21:37:32Z

Currently the IPMI watchdog timer sets the watchdog timeout on a panic, but it doesn't actually poll the interface to make sure the message goes out. Add an interface for polling the IPMI driver, and add code to the IPMI watchdog timer to poll the interface when the timer is set from a panic.

[PATCH] IPMI: Add maintenance mode

2006-12-07T16:39:47Z

Some commands and operations on a BMC can cause the BMC to "go away" for a while. This can cause the automatic flag processing and other things of that nature to timeout and generate annoying logs, or possibly cause other bad things to happen when in firmware update mode. Add detection of those commands (cold reset, warm reset, and any firmware command) and turns off automatic processing for 30 seconds. It also add a manual override either way.

[PATCH] IPMI: per-channel command registration

2006-10-01T07:39:23Z

This patch adds the ability to register for a command per-channel in the IPMI driver. If your BMC supports multiple channels, incoming messages can be useful to have the ability to register to receive commands on a specific channel instead the current behaviour of all channels.
