single list_head variable initialized with LIST_HEAD_INIT could almost always can be replaced with LIST_HEAD declaration, this shrinks the code and looks better.

2007-10-18IPMI: new NMI handlingCorey Minyard
Convert over to the new NMI handling for getting IPMI watchdog timeouts via an NMI. This add config options to know if there is the ability to receive NMIs and if it has an NMI post processing call. Then it modifies the IPMI watchdog to take advantage of this so that it can know if an NMI comes in. It also adds testing that the IPMI NMI watchdog works.

2007-10-18IPMI: add polled interfaceCorey Minyard
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.

2007-10-18IPMI: remove bogus semaphore from watchdogCorey Minyard
Lockdep was giving an error when loading the IPMI watchdog module. It turns out that if you try to claim a lock in a parameter handling routine, lockdep won't see that lock as "static" yet because the module is not yet on the module list, so it will complain. However, the semaphore in question is completely unnecessary. So just remove it.

2007-10-18IPMI: don't init irq until readyCorey Minyard
Patrick found a race at startup. Interrupts were being enabled for the IPMI interface before the driver was really ready to handle them. This could result in an oops if something was pending on the interface at startup and interrupt were already enabled (technically shouldn't happen, but need to cover for this in real life). So move the IRQ setup to the code that starts the actual IPMI processing.

2007-10-17Tweak /proc/ipmi removalAlexey Dobriyan
Driver does proc_mkdir("ipmi", NULL); but remove_proc_entry(proc_ipmi_root->name, &proc_root); This is OK and working if only slightly inconsistent. Also changing proc_root to NULL will help OpenVZ which has multiple proc roots and, as we now know, requires matching parents in such cases.

2007-10-09drivers/firmware: const-ify DMI API and internalsJeff Garzik
Three main sets of changes: 1) dmi_get_system_info() return value should have been marked const, since callers should not be changing that data. 2) const-ify DMI internals, since DMI firmware tables should, whenever possible, be marked const to ensure we never ever write to that data area. 3) const-ify DMI API, to enable marking tables const where possible in low-level drivers. And if we're really lucky, this might enable some additional optimizations on the part of the compiler. The bulk of the changes are #2 and #3, which are interrelated. #1 could have been a separate patch, but it was so small compared to the others, it was easier to roll it into this changeset.

2007-07-31ipmi: Fix mem leak in try_init_dmi()Jesper Juhl
This is only called at init time and only happens if the BIOS screws something up, so the leak is slight and it is probably not worth sending to 2.6.22.x. The driver would not initialize the interface in the case, and I have no reports of this happening. I have booted and run tests on a system with this patch. Note that the original patch was munged by the mailer, here's a new one.

2007-07-11sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->ownerTejun Heo
sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper, so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to accessing removed modules. This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the backing module from being unloaded.

2007-05-14Revert "ipmi: add new IPMI nmi watchdog handling"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit f64da958dfc83335de1d2bef9d3868f30feb4e53. Andi Kleen is unhappy with the changes, and they really do not seem worth it. IPMI could use DIE_NMI_IPI instead of the new callback, even though that ends up having its own set of problems too, mainly because the IPMI code cannot really know the NMI was from IPMI or not.

2007-05-08ipmi: allow shared interruptsCorey Minyard
The IPMI driver used enable_irq and disable_irq when it got into situations where it couldn't allocate memory; it did this to avoid having the interrupt just lock the machine when it couldn't get memory to perform the transaction to disable the interrupt. This patch modifies the driver to not use disable_irq and enable_irq. It instead sends the messages to the BMC to perform this operation. It also makes sure interrupts are cleanly disabled when the interface is shut down and cleans up some shutdown things that are no longer necessary.

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2007-02-11[PATCH] IPMI: Fix some RCU problemsCorey Minyard
Fix some RCU problem pointed out by Paul McKenney of IBM. These are: The wholesale move of the command receivers list into a new list was not safe because the list will point to the new tail during a traversal, so the traversal will never end on a reader if this happens during a read. Memory barriers were needed to handle proper ordering of the setting of the IPMI interface as valid. Readers might not see proper ordering of data otherwise. In ipmi_smi_watcher_register(), the use of the _rcu suffix on the list is unnecessary. This require the list_splice_init_rcu() patch previously posted.

set_param_str() cannot use kstrdup() to duplicate the parameter. That's fine when the driver is compiled as a module but it sure is not when built into the kernel as the kernel parameters are parsed before the kmalloc slabs are setup.

2006-12-10[PATCH] IPMI: misc fixesCorey Minyard
Fix various problems pointed out by Andrew Morton and others: * platform_device_unregister checks for NULL, no need to check here. * Formatting fixes. * Remove big macro and convert to a function. * Use strcmp instead of defining a broken case-insensitive comparison, and make the output parameter info match the case of the input one (change "I/O" to "i/o"). * Return the length instead of 0 from the hotmod parameter handler. * Remove some unused cruft. * The trydefaults parameter only has to do with scanning the "standard" addresses, don't check for that on ACPI.

Increase the maximum message size a KCS interface supports to the maximum message size the rest of the driver supports. Some systems really support messages this big.

2006-12-07[PATCH] IPMI: Fix BT long busyCorey Minyard
The IPMI BT subdriver has been patched to survive "long busy" timeouts seen during firmware upgrades and resets. The patch never returns the HOSED state, synthesizes response messages with meaningful completion codes, and recovers gracefully when the hardware finishes the long busy. The subdriver now issues a "Get BT Capabilities" command and properly uses those results. More informative completion codes are returned on error from transaction starts; this logic was propogated to the KCS and SMIC subdrivers. Finally, indent and other style quirks were normalized.
