2005-06-24[PATCH] ipmi: add 32-bit ioctl translations for 64-bit platformsAndrew Morton
) From: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> This contains the patch for supporting 32-bit compatible ioctls on x86_64 systems. The current x86_64 driver will not work with 32-bit applications.

2005-06-24[PATCH] ipmi: use completions, not semaphores, in powerdown codeCorey Minyard
Don't use semaphores for IPC in the poweroff code, use completions instead. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-24[PATCH] ipmi: add power cycle capabilityCorey Minyard
This patch to adds "power cycle" functionality to the IPMI power off module ipmi_poweroff. It also contains changes to support procfs control of the feature. The power cycle action is considered an optional chassis control in the IPMI specification. However, it is definitely useful when the hardware supports it. A power cycle is usually required in order to reset a firmware in a bad state. This action is critical to allow remote management of servers. The implementation adds power cycle as optional to the ipmi_poweroff module. It can be modified dynamically through the proc entry mentioned above. During a power down and enabled, the power cycle command is sent to the BMC firmware. If it fails either due to non-support or some error, it will retry to send the command as power off.

2005-05-01[PATCH] ipmi: fix a deadlockCorey Minyard
Correct an issue with the IPMI message layer taking a lock and calling lower layer driver. If an error occrues at the lower layer the lock can be taken again causing a deadlock. The lock is released before calling the lower layer.

2005-05-01[PATCH] ipmi: enable interrupts on the BT driverCorey Minyard
Enable interrupts for a BT interface. There is a specific register that needs to be set up to enable interrupts that also must be modified to clear the irq. Also, don't reset the BMC on a BT interface. That's probably not a good idea as the BMC may be performing other important functions and a reset should only be a last resort. Also, that register is also used to enable/disable interrupts to the BT; modifying it may screw up the interrupts.

2005-05-01[PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad ACPI dataCorey Minyard
If the ACPI register bit width is zero (an invalid value) assume it is the default spacing. This avoids some coredumps on invalid data and makes some systems work that have broken ACPI data.

2005-05-01[PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad IPMI DMI dataCorey Minyard
Ignore the bottom bit of the base address from the DMI data. It is supposed to be set to 1 if it is I/O space. Few systems do this, but this enables the ones that do set it to work properly.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
