- Update to 1.2.24
    ofpathname: Convert logical path to OF device path for virtio-scsi devices
    Add support to convert logical device path to Open firmware device path
    for virtio-scsi devices.
 
    lsslot/drmgr: little endian support for memory
    This patch adds some support for memory slot listing
    and memory hotplugging on little endian systems.
 
    drmgr: Correct -s option handling
    The usage statement for drmgr claims that we can add/remove memory and cpus
    by drc name or drc index. The current code though assumes that any
    use of the -s flag to specify this defaults to drc name.
    
    This patch updates the option checking for memory and cpu operations to
    allow users to specify a drc index with the -s option. This will be
    handled the same way the -s option for pci devices is handled, assume it
    is a drc name unless it starts with '0x', indicating the string is
    really a hex value, and switching it to a drc index.
    
    drmgr: Correct null pointer usage
    We can't de-reference NULL pointers, it's not a nice thing to do.
    I found these during some debugging, correcting to avoid future bugs.

ofpathname: Fix checking for hbtl
    Fix checking for hbtl in of2l_scsi ().

snap in powerpc-utils 1.2.20 produces an archive with fstab and
    yaboot.conf files potentially containing cleartext passwords, and lacks
    a warning about reviewing this archive to detect included passwords,
    which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by
    leveraging access to a technical-support data stream.
    
    Solution:
    print a warning that confidential data may be collected via snap
   
    lparstat: using get_smt_mode when showing SMT info
    get_smt_state is used in the system_data structure to display both the
    shared_processor_mode and the smt_state members. After reviewing code and
    documentation, it seems that the information in smt_state is meant to be
    acquired from ppc64_cpu instead of lparcfg. With this change, the SMT listin
    will be determined by the output of ppc64_cpu --smt.

ppc64_cpu: Allow builds without librtas
    Currently, --without-librtas disables ppc64_cpu.
    
    However, we only need librtas for the run-mode determination; other
    functions will work fine without it.
    
    This change allows ppc64_cpu to be built without librtas, by
    conditionally enabling run-mode, and restoring ppc64_cpu to be built
    when --without-librtas is given.
    
    We need to re-work src/Makefile.am a little here - we use the +=
    operator to include rtas-specific functionality, which means the
    with-librtas cases need to be listed before the without ones.
    
    We also need to #include stdint.h, as ppc64_cpu.c uses inttypes from
    here.
 
    drmgr: Correct the -s option handling correction
    In response to my earlier patch that attempted to correct the -s option hand
    for drmgr I introduced a bug in which the usr_drc_name could be NULL causing
    a segfault when attempting to use it.
    
    This patch adds a check to make sure it is not NULL.
    
    lparstat: using get_smt_mode when showing SMT info
    get_smt_state is used in the system_data structure to display both the
    shared_processor_mode and the smt_state members. After reviewing code and
    documentation, it seems that the information in smt_state is meant to be
    acquired from ppc64_cpu instead of lparcfg. With this change, the SMT listin
    will be determined by the output of ppc64_cpu --smt.

    a segfault when attempting to use it.
    
    This patch adds a check to make sure it is not NULL.

lparstat: remove "On" from possible smt output
    The SMT row will only display the number of enabled SMT threads if
    SMT is enabled.
    
    ppc64_cpu: output only the number of SMT threads when smt is on
    This patch removes "SMT is on" as a possible output when the smt option
    is used. Instead, only the number of SMT threads will be displayed.

Sun Feb 24 16:37:47 UTC 2013 - dvaleev@suse.com

- Update to 1.2.16
 * The drmgr command does not currently allow users to specify the 
    drc index of the resource they wish to add/remove. This patch 
    updates the drmgr command so that users can specify either a 
    drc name or a drc index with the -s option.
    
 * This functionality is needed for the upcoming userspace handling 
    of PRRN RTAS events. The rtas_errd will already have the drc 
    index for the resources it needs, adding the capability to 
    parse drc names from the device tree is not supported in 
    rtas_errd though.

* Update the man page for update_flash which had an out of date link
    to instructions for resetting a managed system to a non-partitioned
    configuration.

* The upstream kernel has a feature in the pseries PCI code called DDW
    that inserts TCEs transparently to device drivers. The upstream kernel
    was recently sent a fix for DLPAR that ensured those TCEs would get
    cleared upon DLPAR remove (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/213735/),
    but for it to work, we need a corresponding change to drmgr for, at
    least, PHB remove, so that the notifier chain has fired before we call
    into the slot isolate code. Without such a change, there is no way to
    ensure the DDW TCEs are cleared, and the DLPAR will always fail.

* Add and use dt_swap_int() to byte swap on little endian.
    
 * Also declare buf as unsigned char, so that we don't sign extend when
    printing values from it.
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Dec 20 09:59:34 UTC 2012 - dvaleev@suse.com

- Update to 1.2.15
  * The frequency determination for a system can fail if we can not 
    open enough files to make the determination. This patch 
    pre-emptively updates the rlimit to ensure we can open all the 
    files necessary.

* The latest firmware levels allow for setting different power 
    savings modes. This updates the ppc64_cpu command to display 
    the power savings mode that is currently set for the partition, 
    or for the partition and the system if they are different, 
    when displaying the results for the --frequency option.

* Add support to convert device-mapper multipath device names to 
    OFW device path.
    As multipath devices are seen by the OFW as multiple 
    (equivalent) devices, only one of them is printed so we don't 
    break user scripts expecting one line output. We can add an 
    option later to print all the paths to the multipath device.
  
  * We have introduced full fledged Light Path Diagnostics support
    on PowerLinux. To bring all Light Path Diagnostics related
    code into common tree and re-use common functionalities across
    tools, we have re-implemented usysident/usysattn commands. 
    Light Path Diagnostics including new implentation of 
    usysident/usysattn will be hosted in PowerLinux diagnostic 
    package (ppc64-diag).
    
    ppc64-diag source:
      http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-diag/files/ppc64-diag
    
    This will introduce package conflict between ppc64-diag and
    powerpc-utils. To avoid the conflict we need to deprecate the
    usysident/usysattn commands from powerpc-utils.
    
    This patch deprecates usysident/usysattn commands.

* Update the values reported in the ppc64_cpu --frequency output to
    be displayed to three digits of precision instead of two.
    
    This update to help with test teams that are making this update 
    to their code base already so as to get this precision in 
    the reporting.

- Comment Obsoletes/Provides for now, there is no such packages for
  long time already. Let see if somebody will complain

- The latest kernels allow for users to get/set the DSCR value on a per proces
   This allows for more refined DSCR setting in applications. This is implement
   by using the ptrace peekuser capabilites in the kernel and simply doing a
   ptrace attach and peek from the ppc64_cpu command. Note: this does not actua
   stop the process we are attaching to while under ptrace control.
    
   The patch does a little more than just adding this functionality since the
   --dscr commad now takes an optional -p <pid> option. This required an
   updated to the command parsing code to allow this.

- Includes the status field for Ethernet devices.  This field is necessary for
   the End-to-End Virtual Device View feature.  The field is blindly set to 1
   because we're trying to mimic AIX's lsdevinfo behavior that always sets it t
   unless the device doesn't have a driver, which can't happen in Linux.

- Adding more power specific files/commands to snap

- There are two parameters on lparstat, count and interval, that were
   undocumented on the man page. This patch adds these parameters to the
   option section in the lparstat manpage.

- snap uses temporary directory to gather system data (files and command
   output), and finally creates compressed output file in tar or tar.gz
   format. We do not need to keep the temporary directory.
    
  snap now deletes the temprory directory it used.

- Currently by default snap output is stored in snap.tar.gz file. This
   makes difficult to identify when the snap output was collected.
   
  This patch introduces new option -t which adds hostname adds and
   system time to output filename. With -t output filename will be
   snap-<hostname>-<systemtime>.tar.gz. This patch also creates
   snap_commands directory inside $outdir to save output of commands
   executed by snap.

- Restrict the unsafe constructs by using "use strict" perl pragma
   and hence make snap code better.

- Adds support for physical ethernet devices so that the HMCs end-to-end
   virtual device view can show SR-IOV VFs. Moves common virtual and physical
   ethernet code to show_eth() function

Wed Nov  2 16:31:36 UTC 2011 - dvaleev@suse.com

- Update to 1.2.11
   Drop powerpc-utils.insserv-ibmvscsis.patch as script
    no longer shipped with tarball

- Adds support to the bootlist script to be able to supply a 
   multipath device     as a parameter. The script will now 
   properly handle setting up the bootlist for all paths to 
   a multipath device.

- Fixes ofpathname OF to logical conversion for LUN zero 
   for VFC devices.

- Add --unzip and --ascii options to nvram command, for 
   examination of oops/panic reports captured in lnx,oops-log 
   or ibm,rtas-log.

- On newer kernels the dscr value is a per-process value and a new
    interface (dscr_default) is used to update the dscr value for
    all new processes on the system.

- require librtas-devel as librtas has been splitted

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug  4 13:31:54 UTC 2011 - dvaleev@novell.com

- Update to 1.2.10 release

- Man page for lparstat

- Adds support to ofpathname for HFI network devices. Since the current driver
    does not attach to any bus and there is no way to correlate between the devi
    ce tree and the hf device in sysfs, we have to make some assumptions in how 
    the two are related.

- Adds support for some new ipr SAS adapters which have a new device path
   representation in Open Firmware. This also fixes the OF to logical translation
   for LSI based SAS adapters as well as fixes issues seen with some FC devices.

- Adds the page coalescing statistics to the output of amsstat

- The number removable memory sections can not be determined if AMS is
    active because LMBs that are not marked 'is_removable' could still be
    removed if the balloon driver owns that memory.  Therefore the check
    comparing the user-specified quanity of LMBs to add/remove is invalid.
    
    If AMS ballooning is active, skip the check for how many LMBs are
    removable and try the operation.
 
- The snap man page indicates that the file /var/log/platform
    is collected.  This is not always true and can cause some confusion
    since the file does not exist on newer systems.  To avoid confusing
    users who might think the file should be collected, remove it
    from the man page listing of files.
    
    The /var/log/platform file is where the rtas_errd daemon used to write
    its data before the advent of servicelog.  On older systems that may
    still be running an older rtas_errd daemon (diagela package) this
    file would still exist so we should still try to collect it in the
    snap command if its present.

- The get_bus_id function takes a location code and then searches
    /sys/bus/pci/slots/*/phy_location for a slot with the matching location
    code.  Without this patch the comparison only considers the characters
    up to the length of the input location which can cause a false match.
    For example, the following to would match.
    
    Input location: U5877.001.00H4031-P1
    False match:    U5877.001.00H4031-P10
                                       ^ Comparison stops here
    
    The length of the input is 23 characters and the first 23 characters
    are compared, this leaves off the last '0' on the string to compare and
    erroneously returns the wrong bus.
    
    In the case of a PHB remove operation, this can cause the incorrect slot
    (and associated devices) to be powered off.

- lparstat command.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan 11 12:24:39 UTC 2011 - dvaleev@novell.com

Changes in 1.2.6 version:

- Introduce the lsdevinfo utility.  This command is used to provide the HMC
    or IVM with name information for virtual devices so they can be
    matched against the VIOS names.

- The OpenFirmware binding for Fibre Channel devices permits any leading
   zeros in the LUN field to be stripped, but does not require it. Fix
   ofpathname to handle this case when translating OF pathname to logical
   device name.

- According to PAPR, we need to call activate-firmware after a migration,
   which we weren't doing. Add this call after updating the device tree.

- Add another device tree update call after it to ensure the SLB size is
   correctly updated in the kernel.

- The ppc64_cpu command needs to properly turn off the smt snooze delay.
   The current code does not handle the option 'off', it should as this
   is regarded as a delay of -1.

- The /usr/sbin/rsct/bin/refrsrc command forces a refresh of the HMC/IVM
   and RMC status after a migration occurs.  We should do this from the
   drmgr command instead of assuming servicelog is installed.  A failure
   to invoke this command can cause additional migrations to be delayed
   for up to 10 minutes while the framework refreshes itself.

- This is really more of a re-write than an update.  The ppc64_cpu command
   is being ported from Perl to C to support new functionality.  This
   update introduces two new pieces of functionality to the command.

- New amsstat command. amsstat - display a list of Active Memory Sharing (AMS)
   statistics.

- Update the find command in get_vfc_wwpn() to handle being passed a
   symbolic link.  Previously this lead to an infinite loop due to the
   possible circular nature of sysfs.

- Change the name format for vio devices and correct indentation.

- The sysfs_dev_path member of the dr_node struct is a char[] and needs to
   be treated as such.  this fixes a bug where the sysfs_dev_path is
   treated as a char * and returning invalid info when the buffer is
   actually empty.
  
- Cpu add failures need to return 1 instead of -1.  A return code of -1
   causes the IVM to think there has been a really bad error and the IVM
   will wait 15 minutes prior to re-trying the operation.

- Logical device name to open firmware path translation for fibre-channel
   devices can fail on systems where the fc_remote_ports file in sysfs
   has a slightly different name.  On some systems this file appears as
   fc_remote_ports:rport-X:Y-Z.  This patch corrects the lookup of this
   file.

- The logic in get_node_by_name() currently does not return when it finds a
   child with the name being search for.  This would mean that a command
   such as `drmgr -Q -c port -s "Port 1" -w 0 -d 3` would always return: 
   drmgr: Port 1 not owned by partition

- DR commands shouldn't take long to complete, but having both an entry and
   exit timestamp eliminates the guessing and can point people in the
   correct direction while they debug issues.
