Reboot is the last service linux OS provides to the end user. We are supposed to make this function more robust than today. This patch adds all of the known reboot methods into the default attempt list. The machines requiring reboot=efi or reboot=p or reboot=bios get a chance to reboot automatically now. If there is a new reboot method emerged, we are supposed to add it to the default list as well, instead of adding the endless dmidecode entry. If one method required is in the default list in this patch but the machine reboot still hangs, that means some methods ahead of the required method cause the system hangs, then reboot the machine by passing reboot= arguments and submit the reboot dmidecode table quirk. We are supposed to remove the reboot dmidecode table from the kernel, but to be safe, we keep it. This patch prevents us from adding more. If you happened to have a machine listed in the reboot dmidecode table and this patch makes reboot work on your machine, please submit a patch to remove the quirk. The default reboot order with this patch is now: ACPI > KBD > ACPI > KBD > EFI > CF9_COND > BIOS Because BIOS and TRIPLE are mutually exclusive (either will either work or hang the machine) that method is not included. [ hpa: as with any changes to the reboot order, this patch will have to be monitored carefully for regressions. ] Signed-off-by: NAubrey Li <aubrey.li@intel.com> Acked-by: NMatthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/53130A46.1010801@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: NH.
