2014-05-27	ACPI: Clean up acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to eliminate __iomem.	Lv Zheng	1	-0/+3
	ACPICA doesn't include protections around address space checking, Linux build tests always complain increased sparse warnings around ACPICA internal acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() invocations. This patch tries to fix this issue permanently. There are 2 choices left for us to solve this issue: 1. Add __iomem address space awareness into ACPICA. 2. Remove sparse checker of __iomem from ACPICA source code. This patch chooses solution 2, because: 1. Most of the acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() invocations are used for ACPICA. table mappings, which in fact are not IO addresses. 2. The only IO addresses usage is for "system memory space" mapping code in: drivers/acpi/acpica/exregion.c drivers/acpi/acpica/evrgnini.c drivers/acpi/acpica/exregion.c The mapped address is accessed in the handler of "system memory space" - acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler(). This function in fact can be changed to invoke acpi_os_read/write_memory() so that __iomem can always be type-casted in the OSL layer. According to the above investigation, we drew the following conclusion: It is not a good idea to introduce __iomem address space awareness into ACPICA mostly in order to protect non-IO addresses. We can simply remove __iomem for acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to remove __iomem checker for ACPICA code. Then we need to enforce external usages to invoke other APIs that are aware of __iomem address space. The external usages are: drivers/acpi/apei/einj.c drivers/acpi/acpi_extlog.c drivers/char/tpm/tpm_acpi.c drivers/acpi/nvs.c This patch thus performs cleanups in this way: 1. Add acpi_os_map/unmap_iomem() to be invoked by non-ACPICA code. 2. Remove __iomem from acpi_os_map/unmap_memory(). Signed-off-by: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2013-12-07	ACPI / i915: Fix incorrect <acpi/acpi.h> inclusions via <linux/acpi_io.h>	Lv Zheng	1	-0/+17
	To avoid build problems and breaking dependencies between ACPI header files, <acpi/acpi.h> should not be included directly by code outside of the ACPI core subsystem. However, that is possible if <linux/acpi_io.h> is included, because that file contains a direct inclusion of <acpi/acpi.h>. For this reason, remove the direct <acpi/acpi.h> inclusion from <linux/acpi_io.h>, move that file from include/linux/ to include/acpi/ and make <linux/acpi.h> include it for CONFIG_ACPI set along with the other ACPI header files. Accordingly, Remove the inclusions of <linux/acpi_io.h> from everywhere. Of course, that causes the contents of the new <acpi/acpi_io.h> file to be available for CONFIG_ACPI set only, so intel_opregion.o that depends on it should also depend on CONFIG_ACPI (and it really should not be compiled for CONFIG_ACPI unset anyway).
