2005-11-07[PATCH] ipmi: watchdog parms in sysfsCorey Minyard
Modify the IPMI watchdog parameters (the ones that make sense) to be exported from sysfs. This is somewhat complicated because these parameters have side-effects that must be handled.

2005-11-07[PATCH] ipmi: various si cleanupCorey Minyard
A number of small changes for the various system interface drivers, consolidated from a number of patches from Matt Domsch. Clear B2H_ATN and drain the BMC message buffer on command timeout. This prevents further commands from failing after a timeout. Add bt_debug and smic_debug module parameters, expose them in sysfs. This lets you enable and disable debugging messages at runtime. Unsigned jiffies math in ipmi_si_intf.c causes a too-large value to be passed to ->event() after jiffies wrap-around. The BT driver had caught this, but didn't know how to fix it. Now all calls to ->event() use a sane value for time. Increase timeout for commands handed to the BT driver from 2 seconds to 5 seconds. This is necessary particularly when the previous command was a "Clear SEL", as that command completes, yet the BMC isn't really ready to handle another command yet. Silence BT debugging messages which were being printed on the console. Increase SMIC timeout form 1/10s to 2s. This is needed on Dell PowerEdge 2650 and PowerEdge 750 with ERA/O cards to allow commands to complete without timing out. Adds kcs_debug module param, to match behavior of BT and SMIC. This also prevents messages from being sent to the console unless explicitly requested.

2005-11-07[PATCH] ipmi: use refcount in message handlerCorey Minyard
This patch is rather large, but it really can't be done in smaller chunks easily and I believe it is an important change. This has been out and tested for a while in the latest IPMI driver release. There are no functional changes, just changes as necessary to convert the locking over (and a few minor style updates). The IPMI driver uses read/write locks to ensure that things exist while they are in use. This is bad from a number of points of view. This patch removes the rwlocks and uses refcounts and RCU lists to manage what the locks did.

2005-09-07[PATCH] ipmi poweroff: fix chassis controlCorey Minyard
The IPMI power control function proc_write_chassctrl was badly written, it directly used userspace pointers, it assumed that strings were NULL terminated, and it used the evil sscanf function. This converts over to using the sysctl interface for this data and changes the semantics to be a little more logical.

2005-09-07[PATCH] ipmi: add hacks for IPMI chassis poweroff for certain Dell serversCorey Minyard
This patch allows Dell servers with IPMI controllers that predate IPMI 1.5 to use the standard poweroff or powercycle commands. These systems firmware don't set the chassis capability bit in the Get Device ID, but they do implement the standard poweroff and powercycle commands. Tested on RHEL3 kernel 2.4.21-20.ELsmp on a PowerEdge 2600. The standard ipmi_poweroff driver cannot drive these systems. With this patch, they power off or powercycle as expected.

2005-09-07[PATCH] ipmi: fix panic ipmb responseCorey Minyard
The "null message handler" in the IPMI driver is used in startup and panic situations to handle messages. It was only designed to work with messages from the local management controller, but in some cases it was used to get messages from remote managmenet controllers, and the system would then panic. This patch makes the "null message handler" in the IPMI driver more general so it works with any kind of message.

2005-09-07[PATCH] ipmi: OEM flag handling and hacks for some Dell machinesCorey Minyard
The ipmi driver does not have a way to handle firmware-generated events which have the OEM[012] Data Available flags set. In such a case, the SMS_ATN bit may never get cleared by firmware, leaving the driver looping infinitely but never able to make any progress. This patch first simplifies storage and use of the data returned from an IPMI Get Device ID command. It then creates a new per-OEM handler hook, which should know how to handle events with the OEM[012] Data Available flags set. It then uses this to implement a workaround for IPMI 1.5-capable Dell PowerEdge servers which are susceptable to setting the OEM[012] Data Available flags when the driver can't handle it.

2005-09-07[PATCH] ipmi: add per-channel IPMB addressesCorey Minyard
IPMI allows multiple IPMB channels on a single interface, and each channel might have a different IPMB address. However, the driver has only one IPMB address that it uses for everything. This patch adds new IOCTLS and a new internal interface for setting per-channel IPMB addresses and LUNs. New systems are coming out with support for multiple IPMB channels, and they are broken without this patch.

2005-06-24[PATCH] ipmi: add power cycle capabilityCorey Minyard
This patch to adds "power cycle" functionality to the IPMI power off module ipmi_poweroff. It also contains changes to support procfs control of the feature. The power cycle action is considered an optional chassis control in the IPMI specification. However, it is definitely useful when the hardware supports it. A power cycle is usually required in order to reset a firmware in a bad state. This action is critical to allow remote management of servers. The implementation adds power cycle as optional to the ipmi_poweroff module. It can be modified dynamically through the proc entry mentioned above. During a power down and enabled, the power cycle command is sent to the BMC firmware. If it fails either due to non-support or some error, it will retry to send the command as power off.

Enable interrupts for a BT interface. There is a specific register that needs to be set up to enable interrupts that also must be modified to clear the irq. Also, don't reset the BMC on a BT interface. That's probably not a good idea as the BMC may be performing other important functions and a reset should only be a last resort. Also, that register is also used to enable/disable interrupts to the BT; modifying it may screw up the interrupts.

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.
