misc: hpilo: Do not claim unsupported hardware

2019-02-27T15:00:21+00:00

CL2600/CL2800 servers leveraged Proliant hardware but are targeted to a
different market segment and come with a different firmware base. Based
upon targeted market needs, the servers de-featured certain aspects of iLO.

As a result, hpilo driver still claims the hardware but is not functional,
so we decided to blacklist it with SSID 0x0289 to reduce confusion to
customers.

misc: hpilo: Exclude unsupported device via blacklist

2019-02-27T15:00:20+00:00

Instead of having explicit if statements excluding devices,
use a pci_device_id table of devices to blacklist.

HPE will put out minor updates to the iLO using the same device
info except for the subsystem device id. hpilo driver takes the
approach to claim based upon {Vendor, Device, SubVendor} and it
allows old software to work on new hardware without patching.

As our primary way to support our customers is via distros, the
patching process could take months to go upstream and then
backported to multiple releases of multiple distros.

This approach worked fairly well as this is only the second time
in 10+ years that we need to blacklist an instance.

vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement

2018-02-11T22:34:03+00:00

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Merge tag 'char-misc-4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

2018-02-01T18:31:17+00:00

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big pull request for char/misc drivers for 4.16-rc1.

  There's a lot of stuff in here. Three new driver subsystems were added
  for various types of hardware busses:

   - siox
   - slimbus
   - soundwire

  as well as a new vboxguest subsystem for the VirtualBox hypervisor
  drivers.

  There's also big updates from the FPGA subsystem, lots of Android
  binder fixes, the usual handful of hyper-v updates, and lots of other
  smaller driver updates.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a long time, with no reported
  issues"

misc: hpilo: constify pci_device_id.

2017-08-28T14:55:48+00:00

pci_device_id are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with pci_device_id provided by  work with
const pci_device_id. So mark the non-const structs as const.
