Add stuff to support upcoming BMC/IPMI flashing of newer Dell machine

2009-03-26T17:14:22Z

via the Linux tool. - Add Linux shim to ipmi(4) - Create a partitions file to linprocfs to make Linux fdisk see disks. This file is dynamic so we can see disks come and go. - Convert msdosfs to vfat in mtab since Linux uses that for msdosfs. - In the Linux mount path convert vfat passed in to msdosfs so Linux mount works on FreeBSD. Note that tasting works so that if da0 is a msdos file system /compat/linux/bin/mount /dev/da0 /mnt works. - fix a 64it bug for l_off_t. Grabing sh, mount, fdisk, df from Linux, creating a symlink of mtab to /compat/linux/etc/mtab and then some careful unpacking of the Linux bmc update tool and hacking makes it work on newer Dell boxes. Note, probably if you can't figure out how to do this, then you probably shouldn't be doing it :-)

Don't right-adjust the SMBus slave address for SSIF IPMI BMCs enumerated

2009-02-03T16:39:51Z

via ACPI either. This is somewhat academic since we don't currently support such devices though.

- Change ichsmb(4) to follow the format of all the other smbus controllers

2009-02-03T16:14:37Z

for slave addressing by using left-adjusted slave addresses (i.e. xxxxxxx0b). - Require the low bit of the slave address to always be zero in smb(4) to help catch broken applications. - Adjust some code in the IPMI driver to not convert the slave address for SSIF to a right-adjusted address. I (or possibly ambrisko@) added this in the past to (unknowingly) work around the bug in ichsmb(4). Submitted by: Andriy Gapon (1,2) MFC after: 1 month

Fix typo where the code was missing the "IPMICTL_RECEIVE_MSG_32" condition

2008-11-14T01:53:10Z

test.

Remove hack attempt at using devfs cloning for per-file descriptor storage.

2008-08-28T02:13:53Z

Use the much simpler cdevpriv for per-fd state and enable it. This allows multiple opens of /dev/ipmi0 (e.g. using ipmitool while ipmievd is running in the background). MFC after: 1 week

- Tweak an error message.

2008-08-28T02:11:04Z

- Fix a buglet where && was used instead of & to test if OBF was set in a couple of places. MFC after: 1 week

Rename the kthread_xxx (e.g. kthread_create()) calls

2007-10-20T23:23:23Z

to kproc_xxx as they actually make whole processes. Thos makes way for us to add REAL kthread_create() and friends that actually make theads. it turns out that most of these calls actually end up being moved back to the thread version when it's added. but we need to make this cosmetic change first. I'd LOVE to do this rename in 7.0 so that we can eventually MFC the new kthread_xxx() calls.

Add support to the ipmi, isa attachment to attempt to read ipmi

2007-07-16T17:03:48Z

config info. from device.hints. Some machines have ipmi controllers that do not have attachment info in either PCI, SMBIOS or ACPI. This idea was hacked together by me and then done properly by jhb. Submitted by: jhb Reviewed by: jhb (man page) Approved by: re (Ken Smith) MFC after: 1 week
