2010-07-26agp/intel: Use the correct mask to detect i830 aperture size.Tim Gardner
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597075 commit f1befe71fa7a79ab733011b045639d8d809924ad introduced a regression when detecting aperture size of some i915 adapters, e.g., those on the Intel Q35 chipset. The original report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15733 The regression report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16294 According to the specification found at http://intellinuxgraphics.org/VOL_1_graphics_core.pdf, the PCI config space register I830_GMCH_CTRL is a mirror of GMCH Graphics Control. The correct macro for isolating the aperture size bits is therefore I830_GMCH_GMS_MASK along with the attendant changes to the case statement.

Fix a regression introduced by ae74e823cb7d ("ipmi: add parameter to limit CPU usage in kipmid").

2010-06-06Revert "tty: fix a little bug in scrup, vt.c"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 962400e8fd29981a7b166e463dd143b6ac6a3e76, which was entirely bogus. The code used to multiply the character offset by "vc->vc_cols", and that's actually correct, because 'd' itself is an 'unsigned short'. So the pointer arithmetic already takes the size of a VGA character into account. Changing it to use vc_size_row (which is just "vc_cols" shifted up to take the size of the character into account) ends up multiplying with the VGA character size twice. This got reported as bugs for various other subsystems, because what it actually results in is writing the 16-bit vc_video_erase_char pattern (usually 0x0720: 0x07 is the default attribute, 0x20 is ASCII space) into some random other allocation. So Markus ended up reporting this as a ext4 bug, while to Torsten Kaiser it looked like a problem with KMS or libata. Jeff Chua saw it in different places. And finally - Justin Mattock had slab poisoning enabled, and saw it as a slab poison overwritten. And bisected and reverted this to verify the buggy commit.

This fixes a sporadic oops at boot on G5 Power Macs. The table_end variable has the address of the last byte of the table. Adding on PAGE_SIZE means we flush too much, and if the page after the table is not mapped for any reason, the kernel will oops. Instead we add on 1 because flush_dcache_range() interprets its second argument as the first byte past the range to be flushed.

2010-05-27ipmi: update driver to use dev_printk and its constructsMyron Stowe
Update core IPMI driver printk()'s with dev_printk(), and its constructs, to provide additional device topology information. An example of the additional device topology for a PNP device - ipmi_si 00:02: probing via ACPI ipmi_si 00:02: [io 0x0ca2-0x0ca3] regsize 1 spacing 1 irq 0 ipmi_si 00:02: Found new BMC (man_id: 0x00000b, prod_id: 0x0000, ... ipmi_si 00:02: IPMI kcs interface initialized and for a PCI device - ipmi_si 0000:01:04.6: probing via PCI ipmi_si 0000:01:04.6: PCI INT A -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 ipmi_si 0000:01:04.6: [mem 0xf1ef0000-0xf1ef00ff] regsize 1 spaci... ipmi_si 0000:01:04.6: IPMI kcs interface initialized [minyard@acm.org: rework to fix rejects, extended it a bit] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Myron Stowe <myron.stowe@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> Cc: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Cc: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2010-05-27ipmi: convert tracking of the ACPI device pointer to a PNP deviceMyron Stowe
Convert PNP patch (git 9e368fa011d4e0aa050db348d69514900520e40b) to maintain a pointer to a PNP device, 'pnp_dev', instead of the ACPI device, 'acpi_dev', that is currently being tracked with PNP based IPMI device discovery.

2010-05-27ipmi: change timeout and event poll to one secondCorey Minyard
The timeouts in IPMI are in the 1-5 second range in message handling, so a 1 second timeout is a reasonable thing to do. This should help with reducing power consumption on idle systems.

2010-05-27ipmi: attempt to register multiple SIs of the same typeMatthew Garrett
Some odd systems may have multiple BMCs, and we want to be able to support them. Let's make the assumption that if a system legitimately has multiple BMCs then each BMC's SI will be of the same type, and also that we won't see multiple SIs of the same type unless we have multiple BMCs. If these hold true then we should register all SIs of the same type.

2010-05-27ipmi: reduce pollingMatthew Garrett
We can reasonably alter the poll rate depending on whether we're performing a transaction or merely waiting for an event.

2010-05-27ipmi: reduce polling when interrupts are availableMatthew Garrett
If we're not currently in the middle of a transaction, and if we have interrupts, there's no real reason to poll the controller more frequently than the core IPMI code does. Set the interrupt_disabled flag appropriately as the interrupt state changes, and make the timeout code reset itself only if the transaction is incomplete or we have no interrupts.

2010-05-27ipmi: change device discovery orderMatthew Garrett
The ipmi spec provides an ordering for si discovery. Change the driver to match, with the exception of preferring smbios to SPMI as HPs (at least) contain accurate information in the former but not the latter.

Only register one si per bmc. Use any user-provided devices first, followed by the first device with an irq, followed by the first device discovered.

2010-05-27ipmi: split device discovery and registrationMatthew Garrett
