IPMI.txt: standardize document format

2017-07-14T19:51:40Z

Each text file under Documentation follows a different format. Some doesn't even have titles! Change its representation to follow the adopted standard, using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx: - fix document type; - add missing markups for subitems; - mark literal blocks; - add whitespaces and blank lines where needed; - use bulleted list markups where neded.

ipmi watchdog : add panic_wdt_timeout parameter

2015-11-16T12:28:43Z

In order to allow panic actions to be processed, the ipmi watchdog driver sets a new timeout value on panic. The 255s timeout was designed to allow kdump and others actions on panic, as in http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0711.3/0258.html This is counter-intuitive for a end-user who sets watchdog timeout value to something like 30s and who expects BMC to reset the system within 30s of a panic. This commit allows user to configure the timeout on panic. Signed-off-by: Jean-Yves Faye Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard

ipmi:ssif: Ignore spaces when comparing I2C adapter names

2015-05-05T19:24:45Z

Some of the adapters have spaces in their names, but that's really hard to pass in as a module or kernel parameters. So ignore the spaces. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard

IPMI: Remove SMBus driver info from the docs

2012-10-17T01:07:12Z

Some documentation for the SMBus driver is in the IPMI docs, but that code is not in the kernel tree at this point. So remove the docs to avoid confusion. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ipmi: add parameter to limit CPU usage in kipmid

2010-03-12T23:52:39Z

In some cases kipmid can use a lot of CPU. This adds a way to tune the CPU used by kipmid to help in those cases. By setting kipmid_max_busy_us to a value between 100 and 500, it is possible to bring down kipmid CPU load to practically 0 without loosing too much ipmi throughput performance. Not setting the value, or setting the value to zero, operation is unaffected.
