6a11e5c67a drivers/char/ipmi: Add powernv IPMI driver
This change adds an initial IPMI driver for powerpc OPAL firmware. The
interface is exposed entirely through firmware: we have two functions to
send and receive IPMI messages, and an interrupt notification from the
firmware to signify that a message is available.

b874b985c8 ipmi: Remove the now unnecessary message queue
A message queue was added to the message handler, so the SMI
interfaces only need to handle one message at a time.  Pull out
the message queue.  This also leads to some significant
simplification in the shutdown of an interface, since the
message handler now does a lot of the cleanup.

7ea0ed2b5b ipmi: Make the message handler easier to use for SMI interfaces
The message handler expected the SMI interface to keep a queue of
messages, but that was kind of silly, the queue would be easier to
manage in the message handler itself.  As part of that, fix the
message cleanup to make sure no messages are outstanding when an
SMI interface is unregistered.  This makes it easier for an SMI
interface to unregister, it just has to call ipmi_unregister_smi()
first and all processing from the message handler will be cleaned
up.

567eded965 ipmi: Clear drvdata when interface is removed
This patch fixes a bug on hotmod removing.

After ipmi interface is removed using hotmod, kernel panic occurs when
rmmod impi_si.  For example, try this:

 # echo "remove,"`cat /proc/ipmi/0/params` > \
 /sys/module/ipmi_si/parameters/hotmod
 # rmmod ipmi_si

Then, rmmod fails with the following messages.

  ------------[ cut here ]------------

list_del in cleanup_one_si() fails because the smi_info is already
removed when hotmod removing.

When ipmi interface is removed by hotmod, smi_info is removed by
cleanup_one_si(), but is is still set in drvdata.  Therefore when rmmod
ipmi_si, ipmi_pnp_remove tries to remove it again and fails.

By this patch, a pointer to smi_info in drvdata is cleared when hotmod
removing so that it will be not accessed when rmmod.

cc4cbe9011 ipmi: work around gcc-4.9 build warning
Building ipmi on arm with gcc-4.9 results in this warning for an
allmodconfig build:

  drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c: In function 'ipmi_thread':
  include/linux/time.h:28:5: warning: 'busy_until.tv_sec' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
    if (lhs->tv_sec > rhs->tv_sec)
       ^
  drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:1007:18: note: 'busy_until.tv_sec' was declared here
    struct timespec busy_until;
                    ^

The warning is bogus and this case can not occur.  Apparently this is a
false positive resulting from gcc getting a little smarter about
tracking assignments but not smart enough.

Marking the ipmi_thread_busy_wait function as inline gives the gcc
optimization logic enough information to figure out for itself that the
case cannot happen, which gets rid of the warning without adding any
fake initialization.

89986496de ipmi: Turn off all activity on an idle ipmi interface
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.

48e8ac2979 ipmi: Fix a race restarting the timer
With recent changes it is possible for the timer handler to detect an
idle interface and not start the timer, but the thread to start an
operation at the same time.  The thread will not start the timer in that
instance, resulting in the timer not running.

Instead, move all timer operations under the lock and start the timer in
the thread if it detect non-idle and the timer is not already running.
Moving under locks allows the last timeout to be set in both the thread
and the timer.  'Timer is not running' means that the timer is not
pending and smi_timeout() is not running.  So we need a flag to detect
this correctly.

Also fix a few other timeout bugs: setting the last timeout when the
interrupt has to be disabled and the timer started, and setting the last
timeout in check_start_timer_thread possibly racing with the timer

  bt->read_count = bt->read_data[0];

  for (i = 1; i <= bt->read_count; i++)
    bt->read_data[i] = BMC2HOST;

If bt->read_data[0] == bt->read_count == 255, we loop infinitely in the
'for' loop.  Make 'i' an 'int' instead of 'char' to get rid of the
overflow and finish the loop after 255 iterations every time.

a5f2b3d6a7 drivers/char/ipmi: memcpy, need additional 2 bytes to avoid memory overflow
When calling memcpy, read_data and write_data need additional 2 bytes.

  write_data:
    for checking:  "if (size > IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH)"
    for operating: "memcpy(bt->write_data + 3, data + 1, size - 1)"

  read_data:
    for checking:  "if (msg_len < 3 || msg_len > IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH)"
    for operating: "memcpy(data + 2, bt->read_data + 4, msg_len - 2)"

a8ca16ea7b proc: Supply a function to remove a proc entry by PDE
Supply a function (proc_remove()) to remove a proc entry (and any subtree
rooted there) by proc_dir_entry pointer rather than by name and (optionally)
root dir entry pointer.  This allows us to eliminate all remaining pde->name
accesses outside of procfs.

d9dda78bad procfs: new helper - PDE_DATA(inode)
The only part of proc_dir_entry the code outside of fs/proc
really cares about is PDE(inode)->data.  Provide a helper
for that; static inline for now, eventually will be moved
to fs/proc, along with the knowledge of struct proc_dir_entry
layout.

d941aeae42 ipmi: add new kernel options to prevent automatic ipmi init
The configuration change building ipmi_si into the kernel precludes the
use of a custom driver that can utilize more than one KCS interface,
multiple IPMBs, and more than one BMC.  This capability is important for
fault-tolerant systems.

Even if the kernel option ipmi_si.trydefaults=0 is specified, ipmi_si
discovers and claims one of the KCS interfaces on a Stratus server.  The
inability to now prevent the kernel from managing this device is a
regression from previous kernels.  The regression breaks a capability
fault-tolerant vendors have relied upon.

To support both ACPI opregion access and the need to avoid activation of
ipmi_si on some platforms, we've added two new kernel options,
ipmi_si.tryacpi and ipmi_si.trydmi be added to prevent ipmi_si from
initializing when these options are set to 0 on the kernel command line.
With these options at the default value of 1, ipmi_si init proceeds
according to the kernel default.

bcd2982a0e Drivers: char: remove __dev* attributes.
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.
