edd: add default mode CONFIG_EDD_OFF=n, override with edd={on,off}

2008-04-29T15:06:23Z

Add a kernel parameter option to 'edd' to enable/disable BIOS Enhanced Disk Drive Services. CONFIG_EDD_OFF disables EDD while still compiling EDD into the kernel. Default behavior can be forced using 'edd=on' or 'edd=off' as a kernel parameter. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix kernel-parameters.txt] Signed-off-by: Tim Gardner Signed-off-by: Matt Domsch Cc: "H.

Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT Support

2008-04-20T02:10:28Z

Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT) structure. What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table? It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target. Currently the iSCSI information is hard-coded in the initrd. The /sysfs entries are read-only one-name-and-value fields. The usual set of data exposed is: # for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do echo -n "$a: "; cat $a; done /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/target-name: iqn.2007.com.intel-sbx44:storage-10gb /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/nic-assoc: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/chap-type: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/lun: 00000000 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/port: 3260 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/ip-addr: 192.168.79.116 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/flags: 3 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/index: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/mac: 00:11:25:9d:8b:01 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/vlan: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/gateway: 192.168.79.254 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/origin: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/subnet-mask: 255.255.252.0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/ip-addr: 192.168.77.41 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/flags: 7 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/index: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator/initiator-name: iqn.2007-07.com:konrad.initiator /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator/flags: 3 /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator/index: 0 For full details of the IBFT structure please take a look at: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/systems/support/system_x_pdf/ibm_iscsi_boot_firmware_table_v1.02.pdf [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Cc: Mike Christie Cc: Peter Jones Cc: James Bottomley Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

generic: use new set_cpus_allowed_ptr function

drivers: Remove unnecessary inclusions of asm/semaphore.h

2008-04-19T02:16:32Z

None of these files use any of the functionality promised by asm/semaphore.h. It's possible that they rely on it dragging in some unrelated header file, but I can't build all these files, so we'll have fix any build failures as they come up. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox

ipmi: change device node ordering to reflect probe order

2008-04-04T21:46:26Z

In 2.6.14 a patch was merged which switching the order of the ipmi device naming from in-order-of-discovery over to reverse-order-of-discovery. So on systems with multiple BMC interfaces, the ipmi device names are being created in reverse order relative to how they are discovered on the system (e.g. on an IBM x3950 multinode server with N nodes, the device name for the BMC in the first node is /dev/ipmiN-1 and the device name for the BMC in the last node is /dev/ipmi0, etc.). The problem is caused by the list handling routines chosen in dmi_scan.c. Using list_add() causes the multiple ipmi devices to be added to the device list using a stack-paradigm and so the ipmi driver subsequently pulls them off during initialization in LIFO order. This patch changes the dmi_save_ipmi_device() list handling paradigm to a queue, thereby allowing the ipmi driver to build the ipmi device names in the order in which they are found on the system.
