IPMI: Add one interface to get more info of low-level IPMI device

2010-12-14T05:21:51+00:00

The IPMI smi_watcher will be used to catch the IPMI interface as they
come or go.  In order to communicate with the correct IPMI device, it
should be confirmed whether it is what we wanted especially on the
system with multiple IPMI devices. But the new_smi callback function
of smi_watcher provides very limited info(only the interface number
and dev pointer) and there is no detailed info about the low level
interface. For example: which mechansim registers the IPMI
interface(ACPI, PCI, DMI and so on).

This is to add one interface that can get more info of low-level IPMI
device. For example: the ACPI device handle will be returned for the
pnp_acpi IPMI device.

ipmi: add oem message handling

2009-04-21T20:41:48+00:00

Enable userspace to receive messages that a BMC transmits using an OEM
medium.  This is used by the HP iLO2.

Based on code originally written by Patrick Schoeller.

ipmi: style fixes in the base code

2008-04-29T15:06:15+00:00

Lots of style fixes for the base IPMI driver.  No functional changes.
Basically fixes everything reported by checkpatch and fixes the comment
style.

ipmi: run to completion fixes

2008-04-29T15:06:14+00:00

The "run_to_completion" mode was somewhat broken.  Locks need to be avoided in
run_to_completion mode, and it shouldn't be used by normal users, just
internally for panic situations.

This patch removes locks in run_to_completion mode and removes the user call
for setting the mode.  The only user was the poweroff code, but it was easily
converted to use the polling interface.

IPMI: add polled interface

2007-10-18T21:37:32+00:00

Currently the IPMI watchdog timer sets the watchdog timeout on a panic, but it
doesn't actually poll the interface to make sure the message goes out.

Add an interface for polling the IPMI driver, and add code to the IPMI
watchdog timer to poll the interface when the timer is set from a panic.

[PATCH] IPMI: Add maintenance mode

2006-12-07T16:39:47+00:00

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.

[PATCH] IPMI: per-channel command registration

2006-10-01T07:39:23+00:00

This patch adds the ability to register for a command per-channel in the
IPMI driver.

If your BMC supports multiple channels, incoming messages can be useful to
have the ability to register to receive commands on a specific channel
instead the current behaviour of all channels.

[PATCH] drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c: make proc_ipmi_root static

Make struct proc_ipmi_root static.

Besides this, tremove removes an unused #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS from
