From: Srinivas_Gowda <[email protected]>
Call the event handler immediately after starting the next message.
This change considerably decreases the IPMI transaction time (cuts off
~9ms for a single ipmitool transaction).

Now that the the IPMI driver is using a tasklet, we can simplify
the locking in the driver and get rid of the message lock.

1.7.4.1
From: Matthew Garrett <[email protected]>
We currently time out and retry KCS transactions after 1 second of waiting
for IBF or OBF. This appears to be too short for some hardware. The IPMI
spec says "All system software wait loops should include error timeouts. For
simplicity, such timeouts are not shown explicitly in the flow diagrams. A
five-second timeout or greater is recommended". Change the timeout to five
seconds to satisfy the slow hardware.

The IPMI driver would release a lock, deliver a message, then relock.
This is obviously ugly, and this patch converts the message handler
interface to use a tasklet to schedule work. This lets the receive
handler be called from an interrupt handler with interrupts enabled.

The IPMI watchdog timer clears or extends the timer on reboot/shutdown.
It was using the non-locking routine for setting the watchdog timer, but
this was causing race conditions. Instead, use the locking version to
avoid the races. It seems to work fine.

Yikes, what's going on here? How is the list protected if the spinlock
isn't taken?
I went to the comment over ipmi_smi.run_to_completion but it doesn't
explain how it governs the locking strategy at all. If there's some
other way in which the reader is supposed to grok IPMI locking, please
clue me in ;)

Several of these patches fix bugs/problems, but there isn't enough info
here for me to decide whether we should patch 3.3 or earlier kernels.
I'm assuming "3.4 only".

A dupe. The first one was correct.

The "run_to_completion" mode is designed to run at panic time so that
the watchdog timer can be extended and panic information can be stored
in the IPMI event log. In that case locks are irrelevant and can cause
hangs, so they are skipped.
This is documented a little better in ipmi_si_intf.c, but you are right,
it's not terribly complete.
