  • 4e639fdf0   ibft: Update iBFT handling for v1.03 of the spec. ... Browse Code »

    - Use struct acpi_table_ibft instead of struct ibft_table_header
    - Don't do reserve_ibft_region() on UEFI machines (section 1.4.3.1)
    - If ibft_addr isn't initialized when ibft_init() is called, check for
    ACPI-based tables.
    - Fix compiler error when CONFIG_ACPI is not defined.

    This allows arch code could decide the way to reserve the ibft.

    And we should reserve ibft as early as possible, instead of BOOTMEM
    stage, in case the table is in RAM range and is not reserved by BIOS
    (this will often be the case.)

    Move to just after find_smp_config().

    Also when CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, We will not have reserve_bootmem() anymore.

  • 138fe4e06   Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT Support ... Browse Code »

    Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
    text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
    structure.

    What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table? It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
    extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
    can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target. Currently the iSCSI
    information is hard-coded in the initrd. The /sysfs entries are read-only
    one-name-and-value fields.

    The usual set of data exposed is:

    # for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do echo -n "$a: "; cat $a; done
