2010-05-27ipmi: convert tracking of the ACPI device pointer to a PNP deviceMyron Stowe
Convert PNP patch (git 9e368fa011d4e0aa050db348d69514900520e40b) to maintain a pointer to a PNP device, 'pnp_dev', instead of the ACPI device, 'acpi_dev', that is currently being tracked with PNP based IPMI device discovery.

2010-05-27ipmi: change timeout and event poll to one secondCorey Minyard
The timeouts in IPMI are in the 1-5 second range in message handling, so a 1 second timeout is a reasonable thing to do. This should help with reducing power consumption on idle systems.

2010-05-27ipmi: attempt to register multiple SIs of the same typeMatthew Garrett
Some odd systems may have multiple BMCs, and we want to be able to support them. Let's make the assumption that if a system legitimately has multiple BMCs then each BMC's SI will be of the same type, and also that we won't see multiple SIs of the same type unless we have multiple BMCs. If these hold true then we should register all SIs of the same type.

2010-05-27ipmi: reduce polling when interrupts are availableMatthew Garrett
If we're not currently in the middle of a transaction, and if we have interrupts, there's no real reason to poll the controller more frequently than the core IPMI code does. Set the interrupt_disabled flag appropriately as the interrupt state changes, and make the timeout code reset itself only if the transaction is incomplete or we have no interrupts.

2010-05-25hangcheck-timer: fix x86_32 bugsYury Polyanskiy
drivers/char/hangcheck-timer.c is doubly broken. When the overflown value of TIMER_FREQ is abnormally low, it spams the syslog with KERN_CRIT messages "Hangcheck: hangcheck value past margin!" But whether it happens or not depends on HZ and lpj in a complex way. People have hit it occasionally as far as google search can tell. First, the following line overflows unsigned long: # define TIMER_FREQ (HZ*loops_per_jiffy) Second, and more importantly, loops_per_jiffy has little to do with the con= version from the the time scale of get_cycles() (aka rdtsc) to the time scale of jiffies. The attached patch resolves both of the problems.

.name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver and device_driver. This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members. This patch is a pretty mechanical change. The usage model doesn't change and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup will be trivial. This patch looks big and scary because it touches so many files, but it should be pretty safe.

2010-05-19drivers/char: Eliminate use after freeJulia Lawall
In each case, the first argument to send_control_msg or __send_control_msg, respectively, has either not been successfully allocated or has been freed at the point of the call. In the first case, the first argument, port, is only used to access the portdev and id fields, in order to call __send_control_msg. Thus it seems possible instead to call __send_control_msg directly. In the second case, the call to __send_control_msg is moved up to a place where it seems like the first argument, portdev, has been initialized sufficiently to make the call to __send_control_msg meaningful. This has only been compile tested. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @free@ expression E; position p; @@ kfree@p(E) @@ expression free.E, subE<=free.E, E1; position free.p; @@ kfree@p(E) ...

2010-05-19virtio: console: Store each console's size in the console structureAmit Shah
With support for multiple consoles, just using one {rows,cols} pair in the config space is not going to suffice. Store each console's size as part of the console struct. This changes the behaviour for one case when multiport is not enabled: when notifier_add_vio() is called, the console size is taken from that of the last config-space update instead of fetching it afresh from the config space. Also add a helper to update the size in the console struct as we'll need to use the same code to update the size via control messages when multiport support is enabled.

When using multiport, we'll use control messages. Ensure we don't accidentally update port 0 size on config interrupts.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Add support for nonblocking write()sAmit Shah
If the host port is not open, a write() should either just return if the file is opened in non-blocking mode, or block till the host port is opened. Also, don't spin till host consumes data for nonblocking ports. For non-blocking ports, we can do away with the spinning and reclaim the buffers consumed by the host on the next write call or on the condition that'll make poll return.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Rename wait_is_over() to will_read_block()Amit Shah
We'll introduce a function that checks if write will block. Have function names that are similar for the two cases. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2010-05-19virtio: console: Don't always create a port 0 if using multiportAmit Shah
If we're using multiport, there's no point in always creating a console port. Create the console port only if the host doesn't support multiport. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2010-05-19virtio: console: Use a control message to add portsAmit Shah
Instead of the host and guest independently enumerating ports, switch to a control message to add ports where the host supplies the port number so there's no ambiguity or a possibility of a race between the host and the guest port numbers. We now no longer need the 'nr_ports' config value. Since no kernel has been released with the MULTIPORT changes yet, we have a chance to fiddle with the config space without adding compatibility features. This is beneficial for management software, which would now be able to instantiate ports at known locations and avoid problems that arise with implicit numbering in the host and the guest. This removes the 'guessing game' part of it, and management software can now actually indicate which id to spawn a particular port on.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Move code around for future patchesAmit Shah
We're going to use add_port() from handle_control_message() in the next patch. Move the add_port() and fill_queue(), which depends on it, above handle_control_message() to avoid forward declarations.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Remove config work handlerAmit Shah
We're going to switch to using control messages for port hot-plug and initial port discovery. Remove the config work handler which handled port hot-plug so far. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2010-05-19virtio: console: Don't call hvc_remove() on unplugging console portsAmit Shah
hvc_remove() has some bug which freezes other active hvc ports when one port is removed. So disable calling of hvc_remove() which deregisters a port with the hvc_console. If the hvc_console code calls into our get_chars() routine as a result of a poll operation, we will return -EPIPE and the hvc_console code will then do the necessary cleanup. This call will be restored when the bug in hvc_remove() is found and fixed. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2010-05-19virtio: Revert "virtio: disable multiport console support."Amit Shah
This reverts commit b7a413015d2986edf020fba765c906cc9cbcbfc9. Multiport support was disabled for 2.6.34 because we wanted to introduce a new ABI and since we didn't have any released kernel with the older ABI and were out of the merge window, it didn't make sense keeping the older ABI around. Now we revert the patch disabling multiport and rework the ABI in the following patches. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
