2006-06-29[PATCH] IPMI: watchdog handle panic properlyCorey Minyard1-8/+10
Modify the watchdog timeout in IPMI to only do things at panic/reboot time if the watchdog timer was already running. Some BIOSes do not disable the watchdog timer at startup, and this led to a reboot a while later if the new OS running didn't start monitoring the watchdog, even if the watchdog was not running before.

2006-06-29[PATCH] remove active field from tty buffer structurePaul Fulghum1-12/+4
Remove 'active' field from tty buffer structure. This was added in 2.6.16 as part of a patch to make the new tty buffering SMP safe. This field is unnecessary with the more intelligently written flush_to_ldisc that adds receive_room handling. Removing this field reverts to simpler logic where the tail buffer is always the 'active' buffer, which should not be freed by flush_to_ldisc. (active == buffer being filled with new data) The result is simpler, smaller, and faster tty buffer code.

2006-06-29[PATCH] remove TTY_DONT_FLIPPaul Fulghum7-35/+5
Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag. This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time. 2.2.15 introduced tty->read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the only state requiring protection between these two functions. The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line discipline receive_buf function. Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is not universally honored, it is removed.

2006-06-28[PATCH] i2c-i801.c: don't pci_disable_device() after it was just enabledDaniel Ritz1-6/+10
Commit 02dd7ae2892e5ceff111d032769c78d3377df970 ("[PATCH] i2c-i801: Merge setup function") has a missing return 0 in the _probe() function. This means the error path is always executed and pci_disable_device() is called even when the device just got successfully enabled. Having the SMBus device disabled makes some systems (eg. Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook E8010) hang hard during power-off.

2006-06-28[PATCH] chardev: GPIO for SCx200 & PC-8736x: whitespace pre-cleanJim Cromie1-17/+9
GPIO SUPPORT FOR SCx200 & PC8736x The patch-set reworks the 2.4 vintage scx200_gpio driver for modern 2.6, and refactors GPIO support to reuse it in a new driver for the GPIO on PC-8736x chips. Its handy for the Soekris.com net-4801, which has both chips. These patches have been seen recently on Kernel-Mentors, and then Kernel-Newbies ML, where Jesper Juhl kindly reviewed it. His feedback has been incorporated. Thanks Jesper ! Its also gone to soekris-tech@soekris.com for possible testing by linux folks, I've gotten 1 promise so far. Theyre mostly BSD folk over there, but we'll see.. Device-file & Sysfs The driver preserves the existing device-file interface, including the write/cmd set, but adds v to 'view' the pin-settings & configs by inducing, via gpio_dump(), a dev_info() call. Its a fairly crappy way to get status, but it sticks to the syslog approach, conservatively. Allowing users to voluntarily trigger logging is good, it gives them a familiar way to confirm their app's control & use of the pins, and I've thus reduced the pin-mode-updates from dev_info to dev_dbg. I've recently bolted on a proto sysfs interface for both new drivers. Im not including those patches here; they (the patch + doc-pre-patch) are still quite raw (and unreviewed on KNML), and since they 'invent' a convention for GPIO, a proper vetting is needed. Since this patchset is much bigger than my previous ones, Id like to keep things simpler, and address it 1st, before bolting on more stuff. The driver-split The Geode CPU and the PC-87366 Super-IO chip have GPIO units which share a common pin-architecture (same pin features, with same bits controlling), but with different addressing mechanics and port organizations. The vintage driver expresses the pin capabilities with pin-mode commands [OoPpTt],etc that change the pin configurations, and since the 2 chips share pin-arch, we can reuse the read(), write() commands, once the implementation is suitably adjusted. The patchset adds a vtable: struct nsc_gpio_ops, to abstract the existing gpio operations, then adjusts fileops.write() code to invoke operations via that vtable. Driver specific open()s set private_data to the vtable so its available for use by write(). The vtable gets the gpio_dump() too, since its user-friendly, and (could be construed as) part of the current device-file interface. To support use of dev_dbg() in write() & _dump(), the vtable gets a dev ptr too, set by both scx200 & pc8736x _gpio drivers. heres how the pins are presented in syslog: [ 1890.176223] scx200_gpio.0: io00: 0x0044 TS OD PUE EDGE LO DEBOUNCE [ 1890.287223] scx200_gpio.0: io01: 0x0003 OE PP PUD EDGE LO nsc_gpio.c: new file is new home of several file-ops methods, which are modified to get their vtable from filp->private_data, and use it where needed. scx200_gpio.c: keeps some of its existing gpio routines, but now wires them up via the vtable (they're invoked by nsc_gpio.c:nsc_gpio_write() thru this vtable). A driver-spcific open() initializes filp->private_data with the vtable. Once the split is clean, and the scx200_gpio driver is working, we copy and modify the function and variable names, and rework the access-method bodies for the different addressing scheme.

2006-06-28[PATCH] cpu hotplug: make [un]register_cpu_notifier init time onlyChandra Seetharaman2-5/+7
CPUs come online only at init time (unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined). So, cpu_notifier functionality need to be available only at init time. This patch makes register_cpu_notifier() available only at init time, unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined. This patch exports register_cpu_notifier() and unregister_cpu_notifier() only if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined.

2006-06-28[PATCH] cpu hotplug: revert init patch submitted for 2.6.17Chandra Seetharaman2-2/+2
In 2.6.17, there was a problem with cpu_notifiers and XFS. I provided a band-aid solution to solve that problem. In the process, i undid all the changes you both were making to ensure that these notifiers were available only at init time (unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined). We deferred the real fix to 2.6.18. Here is a set of patches that fixes the XFS problem cleanly and makes the cpu notifiers available only at init time (unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined). If CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined then cpu notifiers are available at run time.

There are two locking sets involved. One locks the board mappings and the other is the tty open/close locking.

Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> The kthread used to speed up polling for IPMI was using udelay in its busy-wait polling loop when the lower-level state machine told it to do a short delay. This just used CPU and didn't help scheduling, thus causing bad problems with other tasks. Call schedule() instead.
