[PATCH 2.6.11.7] Add power cycle to ipmi_poweroff module

From: Chris_Poblete
Date: Thu Apr 14 2005 - 12:21:21 EST


This patch supersedes the one submitted earlier with title
"[PATCH 2.6.11.6] Add power cycle to ipmi_poweroff module".

Below is a patch to add "power cycle" functionality to the IPMI power
off module ipmi_poweroff. It also contains changes to support absence of
procfs feature.

Files affected by this patch:
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_poweroff.c
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c

A new module param is added to support this:
parmtype: chassis_ctrl_cmd_param:int
parm: chassis_ctrl_cmd: Set to 2 to enable power cycle instead
of power down. Power cycle is contingent on hardware support, otherwise
it defaults back to power down.

This parameter can also be dynamically modified through the proc
filesystem:
/proc/ipmi/<interface_num>/chassctrl

The power cycle action is considered an optional chassis control in the
IPMI specification. However, it is definitely useful when the hardware
supports it. A power cycle is usually required in order to reset a
firmware in a bad state. This action is critical to allow remote
management of servers.

The implementation adds power cycle as optional to the ipmi_poweroff
module. It can be modified dynamically through the proc entry mentioned
above. During a power down and enabled, the power cycle command is sent
to the BMC firmware. If it fails either due to non-support or some
error, it will retry to send the command as power off.
