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

proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner

2009-03-30T21:14:44Z

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan

ipmi: remove ->write_proc code

2008-04-29T15:06:15Z

IPMI code theoretically allows ->write_proc users, but nobody uses this thus far. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Acked-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: fix comparison in demangle_device_id

2007-10-30T15:06:55Z

Coverity spotted some incorrect code in a recent change to the IPMI driver; this patch make sure the data is really long enough to pull the manufacturer id and product id out of a get device id message.

Fix misspellings of "system", "controller", "interrupt" and "necessary".

IPMI: add 0.9 support

2007-10-18T21:37:32Z

Add support for IPMI 0.9 systems to the IPMI driver. Just handle a shorter get device ID command with less information. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard Cc: Stian Jordet Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[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.
