| * | [PATCH] ipmi poweroff: fix chassis controlCorey Minyard2005-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * | [PATCH] ipmi: add hacks for IPMI chassis poweroff for certain Dell serversCorey Minyard2005-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * | [PATCH] ipmi: OEM flag handling and hacks for some Dell machinesCorey Minyard2005-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on a patch from Andr Pereira de Almeida <andre@cachola.com.br> It might be possible for the saved pointer (*p) to become invalid in between vc_resizes, so saving the screen offset instead of the screen pointer is saner. This bug is very hard to trigger though, but Andre probably did, if he's submitting this patch. Anyway, with Andre's patch, it's still possible for the offsets to be still illegal, if the new screen size is smaller than the old one. So I've also added checks if the offsets are still within the screenbuffer size.

Load the module without the nowayout option. 2. Open the driver and close it without writing 'V' before close. 3. Unload the module. The timer will continue to run... 4. Oops happens when timer fires. Reported Sun, 10 Oct 2004, by Michael Schierl <schierlm@gmx.de> Fix is easy: always take a reference on the module on open. Release it only when the device is closed and no timer is running. Tested on 2.6.13-rc6 using the soft_noboot option. While the timer is running and the device is closed, the module use count stays at 1. After the timer fires, it drops to 0. Repeatedly opening and closing the driver caused no problems. Please apply.

On tyan motherboards for e.g. you can init the watchdog to 4 mins, then when the driver is loaded it sets the watchdog to "seconds" mode, and then machine will reboot within 4 seconds.

Since all watchdog drivers use the misc_register() call, they will end up in /sys/class/misc/$foo. udev may create the /dev/watchdog node if the driver is loaded. I dont have such a device, so I cant test it. The drivers below provide names with spaces and even with / in it. Not a big deal, but apps may expect /dev/watchdog.

The timer has implementation dependent timeout frequencies that can be configured by software. One the first Watchdog timeout we get a critical exception. It is left to board specific code to determine what should happen at this point. If nothing is done and another timeout period expires the processor may attempt to reset the machine. Command line parameters: wdt=0 : disable watchdog (default) wdt=1 : enable watchdog wdt_period=N : N sets the value of the Watchdog Timer Period. The Watchdog Timer Period meaning is implementation specific. Check User Manual for the processor for more details. This patch is based off of work done by Takeharu Kato.

| * | | | [PATCH] tpm_infineon: Bugfix in PNPACPI-handlingMarcel Selhorst2005-09-05
| | |_|/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corrects the PNP-handling inside the tpm-driver and some minor coding style bugs. Note: the pci-device and pnp-device mixture is currently necessary, since the used "tpm"-interface requires a pci-dev in order to register the driver. This will be fixed within the next iterations.
