2009-04-05ACPI: support acpi_device_ops .notify methodsBjorn Helgaas1-0/+71
This patch adds support for ACPI device driver .notify() methods. If such a method is present, Linux/ACPI installs a handler for device notifications (but not for system notifications such as Bus Check, Device Check, etc). When a device notification occurs, Linux/ACPI passes it on to the driver's .notify() method. In most cases, this removes the need for drivers to install their own handlers for device-specific notifications. For fixed hardware devices like some power and sleep buttons, there's no notification value because there's no control method to execute a Notify opcode. When a fixed hardware device generates an event, we handle it the same as a regular device notification, except we send a ACPI_FIXED_HARDWARE_EVENT value. This is outside the normal 0x0-0xff range used by Notify opcodes. Several drivers install their own handlers for system Bus Check and Device Check notifications so they can support hot-plug. This patch doesn't affect that usage. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Alex Chiang <achiang@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2009-03-27ACPI: call acpi_scan_init() explicitly rather than as initcallBjorn Helgaas1-8/+1
This patch makes acpi_init() call acpi_scan_init() directly. Previously, both acpi_init() and acpi_scan_init() were subsys_initcalls, and acpi_init() was called first based on the link order from the makefile (bus.o before scan.o). acpi_scan_init() registers the ACPI bus type, creates the root device, and enumerates fixed-feature and namespace devices. All of this must be done after acpi_init(), and it's better to call acpi_scan_init() explicitly rather than rely on the link ordering.

2008-11-07ACPI video: if no ACPI backlight support, use vendor driversThomas Renninger1-31/+1
If an ACPI graphics device supports backlight brightness functions (cmp. with latest ACPI spec Appendix B), let the ACPI video driver control backlight and switch backlight control off in vendor specific ACPI drivers (asus_acpi, thinkpad_acpi, eeepc, fujitsu_laptop, msi_laptop, sony_laptop, acer-wmi). Currently it is possible to load above drivers and let both poke on the brightness HW registers, the video and vendor specific ACPI drivers -> bad. This patch provides the basic support to check for BIOS capabilities before driver loading time. Driver specific modifications are in separate follow up patches.

2008-11-06ACPI: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()Kay Sievers1-4/+4
This patch is part of a larger patch series which will remove the "char bus_id[20]" name string from struct device. The device name is managed in the kobject anyway, and without any size limitation, and just needlessly copied into "struct device". To set and read the device name dev_name(dev) and dev_set_name(dev) must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the name the registered device should have. At registration time, the init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to access the device name at a later time. We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch, and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id. We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from "struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array and does no longer have a size limitation.

2008-11-06ACPI: Disambiguate processor declaration typeMyron Stowe1-1/+1
Declaring processors in ACPI namespace can be done using either a "Processor" definition or a "Device" definition (see section 8.4 - Declaring Processors; "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification", Revision 3.0b). Currently the two processor declaration types are conflated. This patch disambiguates the processor declaration's definition type enabling subsequent code to behave uniquely based explicitly on the declaration's type.

2008-10-22ACPI : Load device driver according to the status of acpi deviceZhao Yakui1-10/+25
According to ACPI spec when the status of some device is not present but functional, the device is valid and the children of this device should be enumerated. It means that the device should be added to linux acpi device tree. But the device driver for this device should not be loaded. The detailed info can be found in the section 6.3.7 of ACPI 3.0b spec. _STA may return bit 0 clear (not present) with bit 3 set (device is functional). This case is used to indicate a valid device for which no device driver should be loaded (for example, a bridge device.). Children of this device may be present and valid.

2008-10-11ACPI: Enable EC device immediately after ACPI full initializationZhao Yakui1-4/+0
when there is no ECDT table and no _INI object for EC device, it will be enabled before scanning ACPI device. But it is too late after the following the commit is merged. >commit 7752d5cfe3d11ca0bb9c673ec38bd78ba6578f8e > Author: Robert Hancock <hancockr@shaw.ca> > Date: Fri Feb 15 01:27:20 2008 -0800 >x86: validate against acpi motherboard resources After the above commit is merged, OS will check whether MCFG area is reserved in ACPI motherboard resources by calling the function of acpi_get_devices when there exists MCFG table. In the acpi_get_devices the _STA object will be evaluated to check the status of the ACPI device. On some broken BIOS the MYEC object of EC device is initialized as one, which indicates that EC operation region is already accessible before enabling EC device.So on these broken BIOS the EC operation region will be accessed in course of evaluating the _STA object before enabling EC device, which causes that OS will print the following warning messages: >ACPI Error (evregion-0315): No handler for Region [EC__] (ffff88007f8145e8) [EmbeddedControl] [20080609] >ACPI Error (exfldio-0290): Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no handler [20080321] >ACPI Error (psparse-0530): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.

So it is necessary to enable EC device as early as possible.Maybe it is appropriate to enable it immediately after ACPI full initialization. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11255 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11374 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11660 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Acked-by: Alexey Starikovskiy <astarikovskiy@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

In some machines some GPE is shared by several ACPI devices, for example: sleep button, keyboard, mouse. At the same time one of them is non-wake(runtime) device and the other are wake devices. In such case OSPM should call the _PSW object to disable the device's ability to wake the sleeping system in the boot phase. Otherwise there will be ACPI interrupt flood triggered by the GPE input. The _PSW object is depreciated in ACPI 3.0 and is replaced by _DSW. So it is necessary to call _DSW object first. Only when it is not present will the _PSW object used. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10224 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
