interrupts enabled, the driver will run VERY slowly. Don't blame me,
these interfaces suck.
The driver supports a hot add and remove of interfaces. This way,
interfaces can be added or removed after the kernel is up and running.
This is done using /sys/modules/ipmi_si/hotmod, which is a write-only
parameter. You write a string to this interface. The string has the
format:
<op1>[:op2[:op3...]]
The "op"s are:
add|remove,kcs|bt|smic,mem|i/o,<address>[,<opt1>[,<opt2>[,...]]]
You can specify more than one interface on the line. The "opt"s are:
rsp=<regspacing>
rsi=<regsize>
rsh=<regshift>
irq=<irq>
ipmb=<ipmb slave addr>
and these have the same meanings as discussed above. Note that you
can also use this on the kernel command line for a more compact format
for specifying an interface. Note that when removing an interface,
only the first three parameters (si type, address type, and address)
are used for the comparison. Any options are ignored for removing.

These filesystems are rather similar. Here is a comparison with Minix FS:
Bruno Haible
<haible@ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de>
* Linux fdisk reports on partitions
- Minix FS 0x81 Linux/Minix
- Xenix FS ??
- SystemV FS ??
- Coherent FS 0x08 AIX bootable
* Size of a block or zone (data allocation unit on disk)
- Minix FS 1024
- Xenix FS 1024 (also 512 ??)
- SystemV FS 1024 (also 512 and 2048)

* General layout: all have one boot block, one super block and
separate areas for inodes and for directories/data.
On SystemV Release 2 FS (e.g. Microport) the first track is reserved and
all the block numbers (including the super block) are offset by one track.
* Byte ordering of "short" (16 bit entities) on disk:
- Minix FS little endian 0 1
- Xenix FS little endian 0 1
- SystemV FS little endian 0 1

- Minix FS a bitmap
- Xenix FS, SystemV FS, Coherent FS
There is a cache of a certain number of free inodes in the super-block.
When it is exhausted, new free inodes are found using a linear search.
* Free block management:
- Minix FS a bitmap
- Xenix FS, SystemV FS, Coherent FS
Free blocks are organized in a "free list". Maybe a misleading term,
since it is not true that every free block contains a pointer to
the next free block. Rather, the free blocks are organized in chunks
of limited size, and every now and then a free block contains pointers
to the free blocks pertaining to the next chunk; the first of these
contains pointers and so on. The list terminates with a "block number"
0 on Xenix FS and SystemV FS, with a block zeroed out on Coherent FS.

How to get s2ram working
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2006 Linus Torvalds
2006 Pavel Machek
1) Check suspend.sf.net, program s2ram there has long whitelist of
"known ok" machines, along with tricks to use on each one.
2) If that does not help, try reading tricks.txt and
video.txt. Perhaps problem is as simple as broken module, and
simple module unload can fix it.
3) You can use Linus' TRACE_RESUME infrastructure, described below.
Using TRACE_RESUME
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been working at making the machines I have able to STR, and almost
always it's a driver that is buggy. Thank God for the suspend/resume
debugging - the thing that Chuck tried to disable. That's often the _only_
way to debug these things, and it's actually pretty powerful (but
time-consuming - having to insert TRACE_RESUME() markers into the device
driver that doesn't resume and recompile and reboot).
Anyway, the way to debug this for people who are interested (have a
machine that doesn't boot) is:
- enable PM_DEBUG, and PM_TRACE
- use a script like this:
#!/bin/sh
sync
echo 1 > /sys/power/pm_trace
echo mem > /sys/power/state
to suspend
- if it doesn't come back up (which is usually the problem), reboot by
holding the power button down, and look at the dmesg output for things
like
Magic number: 4:156:725
hash matches drivers/base/power/resume.c:28
hash matches device 0000:01:00.0
which means that the last trace event was just before trying to resume
device 0000:01:00.0. Then figure out what driver is controlling that
device (lspci and /sys/devices/pci* is your friend), and see if you can
fix it, disable it, or trace into its resume function.
For example, the above happens to be the VGA device on my EVO, which I
used to run with "radeonfb" (it's an ATI Radeon mobility). It turns out
that "radeonfb" simply cannot resume that device - it tries to set the
PLL's, and it just _hangs_. Using the regular VGA console and letting X
resume it instead works fine.

Using swap files with software suspend (swsusp)
(C) 2006 Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
The Linux kernel handles swap files almost in the same way as it handles swap
partitions and there are only two differences between these two types of swap
areas:
(1) swap files need not be contiguous,
(2) the header of a swap file is not in the first block of the partition that
holds it. From the swsusp's point of view (1) is not a problem, because it is
already taken care of by the swap-handling code, but (2) has to be taken into
consideration.
In principle the location of a swap file's header may be determined with the
help of appropriate filesystem driver. Unfortunately, however, it requires the
filesystem holding the swap file to be mounted, and if this filesystem is
journaled, it cannot be mounted during resume from disk. For this reason to
identify a swap file swsusp uses the name of the partition that holds the file
and the offset from the beginning of the partition at which the swap file's
header is located. For convenience, this offset is expressed in <PAGE_SIZE>
units.
In order to use a swap file with swsusp, you need to:
1) Create the swap file and make it active, eg.
# dd if=/dev/zero of=<swap_file_path> bs=1024 count=<swap_file_size_in_k>
# mkswap <swap_file_path>
# swapon <swap_file_path>
2) Use an application that will bmap the swap file with the help of the
FIBMAP ioctl and determine the location of the file's swap header, as the
offset, in <PAGE_SIZE> units, from the beginning of the partition which
holds the swap file.
3) Add the following parameters to the kernel command line:
resume=<swap_file_partition> resume_offset=<swap_file_offset>
where <swap_file_partition> is the partition on which the swap file is located
and <swap_file_offset> is the offset of the swap header determined by the
application in 2) (of course, this step may be carried out automatically
by the same application that determies the swap file's header offset using the
FIBMAP ioctl)
OR
Use a userland suspend application that will set the partition and offset
with the help of the SNAPSHOT_SET_SWAP_AREA ioctl described in
Documentation/power/userland-swsusp.txt (this is the only method to suspend
to a swap file allowing the resume to be initiated from an initrd or initramfs
image).
Now, swsusp will use the swap file in the same way in which it would use a swap
partition. In particular, the swap file has to be active (ie. be present in
/proc/swaps) so that it can be used for suspending.
Note that if the swap file used for suspending is deleted and recreated,
the location of its header need not be the same as before. Thus every time
this happens the value of the "resume_offset=" kernel command line parameter
has to be updated.

Q: Why can't we suspend to a swap file?
Q: Can I suspend to a swap file?
A: Because accessing swap file needs the filesystem mounted, and
filesystem might do something wrong (like replaying the journal)
during mount.
There are few ways to get that fixed:
1) Probably could be solved by modifying every filesystem to support
some kind of "really read-only!" option. Patches welcome.
2) suspend2 gets around that by storing absolute positions in on-disk
image (and blocksize), with resume parameter pointing directly to
suspend header.
A: Generally, yes, you can. However, it requires you to use the "resume=" and
"resume_offset=" kernel command line parameters, so the resume from a swap file
cannot be initiated from an initrd or initramfs image. See

- Some functions may not be implemented at all, (i.e. some locks
compile away to nothing for non-SMP builds.)
- Parameter passing of variables from function to function can be
done in different ways (the CONFIG_REGPARM option controls
this.)
- Memory within the kernel can be aligned in different ways,
depending on the build options.
- Linux runs on a wide range of different processor architectures.
