Pull IPMI updates from Corey Minyard:
 "A small bug fix and a new driver for acting as an IPMI device.

  I was on vacation during the merge window (a long vacation) but this
  is a bug fix that should go in and a new driver that shouldn't hurt
  anything.

  This has been in linux-next for a month or so"

<title>uapi: add missing install of sync_file.h</title>

As part of the sync framework destaging, the sync_file.h header
was moved, but an entry was not added on Kbuild to install it.
This patch resolves this omission so that "make headers_install"

<title>ipmi: add an Aspeed BT IPMI BMC driver</title>

<id>54f9c4d0778b3f9ab791b1b7eb1a5d2809f02f50</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds a simple device driver to expose the iBT interface on
Aspeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500) as a character device. Such SOCs are
commonly used as BMCs (BaseBoard Management Controllers) and this
driver implements the BMC side of the BT interface.

The BT (Block Transfer) interface is used to perform in-band IPMI
communication between a host and its BMC. Entire messages are buffered
before sending a notification to the other end, host or BMC, that
there is data to be read. Usually, the host emits requests and the BMC
responses but the specification provides a mean for the BMC to send
SMS Attention (BMC-to-Host attention or System Management Software
attention) messages.

For this purpose, the driver introduces a specific ioctl on the
device: 'BT_BMC_IOCTL_SMS_ATN' that can be used by the system running
on the BMC to signal the host of such an event.

The device name defaults to '/dev/ipmi-bt-host'

Introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT programs that can be attached to
HW and SW perf events (PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE
correspondingly in uapi/linux/perf_event.h)

The program visible context meta structure is
struct bpf_perf_event_data {
    struct pt_regs regs;
     __u64 sample_period;
};
which is accessible directly from the program:
int bpf_prog(struct bpf_perf_event_data *ctx)
{
  ... ctx-&gt;sample_period ...
  ... ctx-&gt;regs.ip ...
}

The bpf verifier rewrites the accesses into kernel internal
struct bpf_perf_event_data_kern which allows changing
struct perf_sample_data without affecting bpf programs.
New fields can be added to the end of struct bpf_perf_event_data
in the future.

<title>rapidio: add RapidIO channelized messaging driver</title>

<id>b6e8d4aa1110306378af0f3472a6b85a1f039a16</id>
<content type='text'>
Add channelized messaging driver to support native RapidIO messaging
exchange between multiple senders/recipients on devices that use kernel
RapidIO subsystem services.

This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org
Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Prodrive
Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT.  Additional input was
received from other members of RapidIO.org.

The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which
exposes messaging capabilities of RapidIO endpoint devices (mports)
directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and
varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate.

This char mode device driver allows user-space applications to setup
messaging communication channels using single shared RapidIO messaging
mailbox.

By default this driver uses RapidIO MBOX_1 (MBOX_0 is reserved for use by
RIONET Ethernet emulation driver).
