module_param: make bool parameters really bool (drivers & misc)

2012-01-12T23:02:20Z

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version. Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

ipmi_watchdog: restore settings when BMC reset

2011-12-20T18:25:04Z

If the BMC gets reset, it will return 0x80 response errors. In less than a week # grep "Error 80 on cmd 22" /var/log/kernel |wc -l 378681 In this case, it is probably a good idea to restore the IPMI settings.

x86, nmi: Wire up NMI handlers to new routines

2011-10-10T04:56:57Z

Just convert all the files that have an nmi handler to the new routines. Most of it is straight forward conversion. A couple of places needed some tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler and mce removes a call to notify_die. [Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114 And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163] The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).

drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct device

2011-05-18T18:32:23Z

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely
