X-Git-Tag: v3.18-rc7~13^2~4 X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6acbc5a1dab30aa8f7be7bf3852f343f89147ac5;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git powerpc/powernv: Fix the hmi event version check. The current HMI event structure is an ABI and carries a version field to accommodate future changes without affecting/rearranging current structure members that are valid for previous versions. The current version check "if (hmi_evt->version != OpalHMIEvt_V1)" doesn't accomodate the fact that the version number may change in future. If firmware starts returning an HMI event with version > 1, this check will fail and no HMI information will be printed on older kernels. This patch fixes this issue.
