2006-12-07[PATCH] IPMI: Add maintenance modeCorey Minyard
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.

2006-12-07[PATCH] IPMI: pass sysfs name from lower level driverCorey Minyard
Pass in the sysfs name from the lower-level IPMI driver, as the coming IPMI serial driver will need that to link properly from the serial device sysfs directory.

2006-03-31[PATCH] IPMI: fix startup race conditionCorey Minyard
Matt Domsch noticed a startup race with the IPMI kernel thread, it was possible (though extraordinarly unlikely) that a message could come in before the upper layer was ready to handle it. This patch splits the startup processing of an IPMI interface into two parts, one to get ready and one to actually start the processes to receive messages from the interface.

2006-03-26[PATCH] ipmi: add full sysfs supportCorey Minyard
Add full driver model support for the IPMI driver. It links in the proper bus and device support. It adds an "ipmi" driver interface that has each BMC discovered by the driver (as a device). These BMCs appear in the devices/platform directory. If there are multiple interfaces to the same BMC, the driver should discover this and will only have one BMC entry. The BMC entry will have pointers to each interface device that connects to it. The device information (statistics and config information) has not yet been ported over to the driver model from proc, that will come later. This work was based on work by Yani Ioannou. I basically rewrote it using that code as a guide, but he still deserves credit :).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. 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. Let it rip!
