<id>urn:sha1:0e41bf06eefe969ee5092f4ec55ae1b0ff9c1ea0</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for capability register, which is used for detection of the
actual number of interrupt capable components within the particular
group, supported by the specific system.
Such components could be for example the number of power units and
interrupts related to these units.
The motivation is to avoid adding a new code in the future in order to
distinct between the systems type supported different number of the
components like power supplies, FANs, ASICs, line cards.

<title>platform/mellanox: fix potential deadlock in the tmfifo driver</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3454eeeebd115891f34aa2e76eccf08c9b0882bb</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit fixes the potential deadlock caused by the console Rx
and Tx processing at the same time. Rx and Tx both take the console
and tmfifo spinlock but in different order which causes potential
deadlock. The fix is to use different tmfifo spinlock for Rx and
Tx since they protect different resources and it's safe to split
the lock.

Below is the reported call trace when copying/pasting large string
in the console.

Rx:
    _raw_spin_lock_irqsave (hvc lock)
    __hvc_poll
    hvc_poll
    in_intr
    vring_interrupt
    mlxbf_tmfifo_rxtx_one_desc (tmfifo lock)
    mlxbf_tmfifo_rxtx
    mlxbf_tmfifo_work_rxtx
Tx:
    _raw_spin_lock_irqsave (tmfifo lock)
    mlxbf_tmfifo_virtio_notify
    virtqueue_notify
    virtqueue_kick
    put_chars
    hvc_push
    hvc_write (hvc lock)
    ...
    do_tty_write
    tty_write

<content type='text'>
This is a follow-up commit for the sysfs attributes to change
from DRIVER_ATTR to DEVICE_ATTR according to some initial comments.
In such case, it's better to point the sysfs path to the device
itself instead of the driver. The ABI document is also updated.

<id>urn:sha1:79e29cb8fbc5c568358989327a164257b05cc608</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit adds the bootctl platform driver for Mellanox BlueField
Soc, which queries secure state and controls the eMMC boot partition
swapping by sending SMC calls to ATF running at EL3.

Below are the sequences of typical use case.

  1. User requests boot partition swapping, which could be on-demand or
     during boot-image upgrade via UEFI capsule;

  2. This bootctl driver handles the request and sends SMC call
     to ATF. ATF programs register BREADCRUMB0 which has value
     preserved during warm reset. It also programs eMMC to swap
     the boot partition;

  3. After software reset (rebooting), ATF BL1 (BootRom) checks
     register BREADCRUMB0 and enable watchdog if configured;

  4. If booting fails, the watchdog timer will trigger rebooting.
     In such case, ATF Boot ROM will switch the boot partition
     back to the previous one. This is a robust feature and used
     to prevent failure during boot partition upgrade.

<title>platform/mellanox: mlxreg-hotplug: Remove dev_err() usage after platform_get_irq()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:eaae882c4a77c8aa2ca20d4447aeb81d9d5eec97</id>
<content type='text'>
We don't need dev_err() messages when platform_get_irq() fails now that
platform_get_irq() prints an error message itself when something goes
wrong. Let's remove these prints with a simple semantic patch.

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@@
expression ret;
struct platform_device *E;
@@

ret =
(
platform_get_irq(E, ...)
|
platform_get_irq_byname(E, ...)
);

if ( \( ret &lt; 0 \| ret &lt;= 0 \) )
{
(
-if (ret != -EPROBE_DEFER)
-{ ...
-dev_err(...);
-... }
|
...
-dev_err(...);
)
...
}
// &lt;/smpl&gt;

While we're here, remove braces on if statements that only have one
statement (manually).

[   13.353933] ==================================================================

The warning is caused by the below loop:
	for_each_set_bit(bit, (unsigned long *)&amp;asserted, 8) {
while "asserted" is declared as 'unsigned'.

The casting of 32-bit unsigned integer pointer to a 64-bit unsigned long
pointer. There are two problems here.
It causes the access of four extra byte, which can corrupt memory
The 32-bit pointer address may not be 64-bit aligned.

The fix changes variable "asserted" to "unsigned long".

<title>platform/x86: mlx-platform: Add support for fan capability registers</title>

<content type='text'>
Provide support for the fan capability registers for the next generation
systems of types MQM87xx, MSN34xx, MSN37xx. These new registers provide
configuration for tachometers and fan drawers connectivity.  Use these
registers for next generation led, fan and hotplug structures in order
to distinguish between the systems which have minor configuration
differences. This reduces the amount of code used to describe such
systems.
