2005-06-24[PATCH] tpm: improve output in sysfs files when the TPM failsKylene Jo Hall

2005-06-24[PATCH] char/tpm: use msleep(), clean-up timers,Nishanth Aravamudan
The TPM driver unnecessarily uses timers when it simply needs to maintain a maximum delay via time_before(). msleep() is used instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task delays as expected. While compile-testing, I found a typo in the driver, using tpm_chp instead of tpm_chip. Remove the now unused timer callback function and change TPM_TIMEOUT's units to milliseconds. Patch is compile-tested.

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.

2005-06-23[PATCH] IDE CD reports current speedEric Piel
The current ide-cd driver reports the CDROM speed (as found in /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info) as the current speed when loading the driver. Changing the speed of the cdrom drive (by "eject -x" for instance) doesn't update the speed reported by the kernel. Updating the info could be valuable for the user as it's the only way to know if the drive accepted the request or discarded it. It could even be used to list all the available speeds of the drive. The attached patch modifies the ide-cd driver so that after every speed change request the new speed is updated. Please note that the actual modification is very little but I had to touch quite a few lines in order to avoid to pre-declare the sub-functions.

2005-06-23[PATCH] block: add unlocked_ioctl support for block devicesArnd Bergmann
This patch allows block device drivers to convert their ioctl functions to unlocked_ioctl() like character devices and other subsystems. All functions that were called with the BKL held before are still used that way, but I would not be surprised if it could be removed from the ioctl functions in drivers/block/ioctl.c themselves. As a side note, I found that compat_blkdev_ioctl() acquires the BKL as well, which looks like a bug. I have checked that every user of disk->fops->compat_ioctl() in the current git tree gets the BKL itself, so it could easily be removed from compat_blkdev_ioctl().

2005-06-23[PATCH] yenta TI: turn off interrupts during card power-on #2Daniel Ritz
- make boot-up card recognition more reliable (ie. redo interrogation always if there is no valid 'card inserted' state) (and yes, i saw it happening on an o2micro controller that both CB_CBARD and CB_16BITCARD bits were set at the same time) - also redo interrogation before probing the ISA interrupts. it's safer to do the probing with the socket in a clean state. - make card insert detect more reliable. yenta_get_status() now returns SS_PENDING as long as the card is not completley inserted and one of the voltage bits is set. also !CB_CBARD doesn't mean CB_16BITCARD. there is CB_NOTACARD as well, so make an explicit check for CB_16BITCARD. - for TI bridges: disable IRQs during power-on. in all-serial and tied interrupt mode the interrupts are always disabled for single-slot controllers. for two-slot contollers the disabling is only done when the other slot is empty. to force disabling there is a new module parameter now: pwr_irqs_off=Y (which is a regression for working setups. that's why it's an option, only use when required) - modparm to disable ISA interrupt probing (isa_probe, defaults to on) - remove unneeded code/cleanups (ie. merge yenta_events() into yenta_interrupts()) Signed-off-by: Daniel Ritz <daniel.ritz@gmx.ch> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
