We can't get bmc's device id with low probability when loading ipmi driver,
it caused bmc device register failed. This issue may caused by bad lpc
signal quality. When this issue happened, we got below kernel printks:
[Wed Sep 9 19:52:03 2020] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: IPMI message handler: device id demangle failed: -22
[Wed Sep 9 19:52:03 2020] IPMI BT: using default values
[Wed Sep 9 19:52:03 2020] IPMI BT: req2rsp=5 secs retries=2
[Wed Sep 9 19:52:03 2020] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Unable to get the device id: -5
[Wed Sep 9 19:52:04 2020] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Unable to register device: error -5
When this issue happened, we want to manually unload the driver and try to
load it again, but it can't be unloaded by 'rmmod' as it is already 'in use'.
We add below 'printk' in handle_one_recv_msg(), when this issue happened,
the msg we received is "Recv: 1c 01 d5", which means the data_len is 1,
data[0] is 0xd5.
Debug code:
static int handle_one_recv_msg(struct ipmi_smi *intf,
struct ipmi_smi_msg *msg) {
printk("Recv: %*ph\n", msg->rsp_size, msg->rsp);
... ...
}
Then in ipmi_demangle_device_id(), it returned '-EINVAL' as 'data_len < 7'
and 'data[0] != 0'.
We used this patch to retry to get device id when error happen, we
reproduced this issue again and the retry succeed on the first retry, we
finally got the correct msg and then all is ok:
Recv: 1c 01 00 01 81 05 84 02 af db 07 00 01 00 b9 00 10 00
So use retry machanism in this patch to give bmc more opportunity to
correctly response kernel.

I'm not sure this patch is a good idea; it would cause a long boot delay
in situations where there really isn't a BMC out there. Yes, it
happens.
You don't have to reload the driver to add a device, though. You can
hot-add devices using /sys/modules/ipmi_si/parameters/hotmod. Look in
Documentation/driver-api/ipmi.rst for details.
Does that work for you?

Hi Corey
Thanks for your quickly reply,
We didn't try the method you mentioned, actually, I didn't know it before you told me:(
The issue ever occurred on our 2 ceph storage server both with low probability.
We finally use this patch to solve the issue, it can automatically solve the issue when it happened. So no need to judge and reload ipmi driver manually or develop additional scripts to make it.
The 1 second delay is acceptable to us.
If there really isn't a BMC out there, ipmi driver will not be loaded, is it right?
May be we can adjust to retry 3 times with 500ms interval?
Thanks in advance if you can feedback again.

No, there are systems that have IPMI controllers that are specified in
the ACPI/SMBIOS tables but have no IPMI controller.

Maybe there is another way. What I'm guessing is happening is not that
the interface is lossy, but that the BMC is in the middle of a reset or
an upgrade. The D5 completion code means: Cannot execute command. Command,
or request parameter(s), not supported in present state.
That error is also returned from bt_start_transaction() in the driver if
the driver is not in the right state when starting a transaction,
which may point to a bug in the BT state machine. Search for
IPMI_NOT_IN_MY_STATE_ERR in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_bt_sm.c.
If it's coming fron the state machine, it would be handy to know what
state it was in when the error happened to help trace the bug down.
That's what I would suggest first. Fix the fundamental bug, if you can.
a pr_warn() added to the code there would be all that's needed, and
thats probably a good permanent addition.
I would be ok with a patch that retried some number of times if it got a
D5 completion code. That wouldn't have any effect on other systems.
Plus you could add a D1 and D2 completion code, which are similar
things. Add the new completion codes to include/uapi/linux/ipmi_msgdefs.h
and implement the retry. That makes sense from a general point of view.

Hi Corey,
Thanks a lot for you kindly guide.
I send the version 2 patch to you: [PATCH] [v2] ipmi: retry to get device id when error
If there is still something wrong or I missed something, please correct me:)
