* ipmi: Turn off all activity on an idle ipmi interfaceCorey Minyard2014-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IPMI driver would wake up periodically looking for events and watchdog pretimeouts. If there is nothing waiting for these events, it's really kind of pointless to be checking for them. So modify the driver so the message handler can pass down if it needs the lower layer to be waiting for these. Modify the system interface lower layer to turn off all timer and thread activity if the upper layer doesn't need anything and it is not currently handling messages. And modify the message handler to not restart the timer if its timer is not needed. The timers and kthread will still be enabled if: - the SI interface is handling a message. - a user has enabled watching for events. - the IPMI watchdog timer is in use (since it uses pretimeouts). - the message handler is waiting on a remote response. - a user has registered to receive commands. This mostly affects interfaces without interrupts. Interfaces with interrupts already don't use CPU in the system interface when the interface is idle.

* ipmi: Reset the KCS timeout when starting error recoveryCorey Minyard2014-04-17
| | | | | | | | | The OBF timer in KCS was not reset in one situation when error recovery was started, resulting in an immediate timeout.

* ipmi: Fix a race restarting the timerBodo Stroesser2014-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With recent changes it is possible for the timer handler to detect an idle interface and not start the timer, but the thread to start an operation at the same time. The thread will not start the timer in that instance, resulting in the timer not running. Instead, move all timer operations under the lock and start the timer in the thread if it detect non-idle and the timer is not already running. Moving under locks allows the last timeout to be set in both the thread and the timer. 'Timer is not running' means that the timer is not pending and smi_timeout() is not running. So we need a flag to detect this correctly. Also fix a few other timeout bugs: setting the last timeout when the interrupt has to be disabled and the timer started, and setting the last timeout in check_start_timer_thread possibly racing with the timer Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@ts.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* Char: ipmi_bt_sm, fix infinite loopJiri Slaby2014-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In read_all_bytes, we do unsigned char i; ... bt->read_data[0] = BMC2HOST; bt->read_count = bt->read_data[0]; ... for (i = 1; i <= bt->read_count; i++) bt->read_data[i] = BMC2HOST; If bt->read_data[0] == bt->read_count == 255, we loop infinitely in the 'for' loop. Make 'i' an 'int' instead of 'char' to get rid of the overflow and finish the loop after 255 iterations every time.

* ipmi: add new kernel options to prevent automatic ipmi initCorey Minyard2013-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The configuration change building ipmi_si into the kernel precludes the use of a custom driver that can utilize more than one KCS interface, multiple IPMBs, and more than one BMC. This capability is important for fault-tolerant systems. Even if the kernel option ipmi_si.trydefaults=0 is specified, ipmi_si discovers and claims one of the KCS interfaces on a Stratus server. The inability to now prevent the kernel from managing this device is a regression from previous kernels. The regression breaks a capability fault-tolerant vendors have relied upon. To support both ACPI opregion access and the need to avoid activation of ipmi_si on some platforms, we've added two new kernel options, ipmi_si.tryacpi and ipmi_si.trydmi be added to prevent ipmi_si from initializing when these options are set to 0 on the kernel command line. With these options at the default value of 1, ipmi_si init proceeds according to the kernel default.

| * ipmi: increase KCS timeoutsMatthew Garrett2012-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently time out and retry KCS transactions after 1 second of waiting for IBF or OBF. This appears to be too short for some hardware. The IPMI spec says "All system software wait loops should include error timeouts. For simplicity, such timeouts are not shown explicitly in the flow diagrams. A five-second timeout or greater is recommended". Change the timeout to five seconds to satisfy the slow hardware.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Call the event handler immediately after starting the next message. This change considerably decreases the IPMI transaction time (cuts off ~9ms for a single ipmitool transaction).

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.

* x86, nmi: Wire up NMI handlers to new routinesDon Zickus2011-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Just convert all the files that have an nmi handler to the new routines. Most of it is straight forward conversion. A couple of places needed some tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler and mce removes a call to notify_die. [Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114 And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163] The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).
