Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ipmi: fix timeout calculation when bmc is disconnected
Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2013 10:39:51 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52AA7377.4070408@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <52AA72B4.4080807@huawei.com>

Loading ipmi_si module while bmc is disconnected, we found the timeout
is longer than 5 secs. Actually it takes about 3 mins and 20 secs.(HZ=250)

error message as below:
Dec 12 19:08:59 linux kernel: IPMI BT: timeout in RD_WAIT [ ] 1 retries left
Dec 12 19:08:59 linux kernel: BT: write 4 bytes seq=0x01 03 18 00 01
[...]
Dec 12 19:12:19 linux kernel: IPMI BT: timeout in RD_WAIT [ ]
Dec 12 19:12:19 linux kernel: failed 2 retries, sending error response
Dec 12 19:12:19 linux kernel: IPMI: BT reset (takes 5 secs)
Dec 12 19:12:19 linux kernel: IPMI BT: flag reset [ ]

Function wait_for_msg_done() use schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) to
sleep 1 tick, so we should subtract jiffies_to_usecs(1) instead of 100
usecs from timeout.
