ipmi: Make the DMI probe into a generic platform probe

2017-09-28T17:26:03+00:00

Rework the DMI probe function to be a generic platform probe, and
then rework the DMI code (and a few other things) to use the more
generic information.  This is so other things can declare platform
IPMI devices.

ipmi: Get the device id through a function

2017-09-27T21:03:45+00:00

This makes getting the device id consistent, and make it possible
to add a function to fetch it dynamically later.

ipmi: make ipmi_usr_hndl const

2017-01-05T21:01:55+00:00

It's only function pointers.

ipmi: remove trydefaults parameter and default init

2016-07-27T15:24:38+00:00

Parameter trydefaults=1 causes the ipmi_init to initialize ipmi through
the legacy port io space that was designated for ipmi. Architectures
that do not map legacy port io can panic when trydefaults=1.

Rather than implement build-time conditional exceptions for each
architecture that does not map legacy port io, we have removed legacy
port io from the driver.

Parameter 'trydefaults' has been removed. Attempts to use it hereafter
will evoke the "Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter" message.

The patch was built against a number of architectures and tested for
regressions and functionality on x86_64 and ARM64.

Removed the config entry and the address source entry for default,
since neither were used any more.

ipmi: Use the proper type for acpi_handle

2014-12-11T21:04:06+00:00

Minor cleanup, don't use a void pointer, use the right type.

ipmi: Move the address source to string to ipmi-generic code

2014-12-11T21:04:04+00:00

It was in the system interface driver, but is generic functionality.

ipmi: Turn off all activity on an idle ipmi interface

2014-04-17T19:23:07+00:00

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: remove superfluous kernel/userspace explanation

2013-02-28T03:10:21+00:00

Given the obvious distinction between kernel and userspace supported
by uapi/, it seems unnecessary to comment on that.
