<content type='text'>
commit f18ebc211e259d4f591e39e74b2aa2de226c9a1d upstream.

The problem with ornamental, do-nothing gotos is that they lead to
"forgot to set the error code" bugs.  We should be returning -EINVAL
here but we don't.  It leads to an uninitalized variable in
counter_show():

    drivers/acpi/sysfs.c:603 counter_show()
    error: uninitialized symbol 'status'.

Fixes: 1c8fce27e275 (ACPI: introduce drivers/acpi/sysfs.c)

Since kobject_create_and_add() can fail under memory pressure,
its return value needs to be checked against NULL before passing
it to sysfs_create_file().

<title>ACPI / sysfs: Add support to allow leading "\" missing in trace_method_name.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a0186bcf7c21907c78ab2b4bc50f3fb2b5047806</id>
<content type='text'>
Since _SB.PCI0 can be used as relative path from root and can be easily
converted into internal trace_method_name format, we allow users to specify
trace_method_name using relative paths from root.
Note this is useful for grub2 for which users failed to pass "\" from the
grub configuration file.

<title>ACPI / sysfs: Update method tracing facility.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7901a052a981691d18f4e8f91fc27e40849b7336</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch updates the method tracing facility as the acpi_debug_trace()
API has been updated to allow it to trace AML interpreter execution, the
meanings and the usages of the API parameters are changed due to the
updates.

The new API:
1. Uses ACPI_TRACE_ENABLED flag to indicate the enabling of the tracer;
2. Allows tracer still can be enabled when method name is not specified so
   that the AML interpreter execution can be traced without knowing the
   method name, which is useful for kernel boot tracing;
3. Supports arbitrary full path name, it doesn't need to be a name related
   to an entrance of acpi_evaluate_object().

Note that the sysfs parameters are also updated so that when reading the
attribute files, ACPICA internal settings are returned.

In order to make the sysfs parameters (acpi.trace_state) available during
boot, this patch adds code to bypass ACPICA semaphore/mutex invocations
when acpi mutex utilities haven't been initialized.

This patch doesn't update documentation of method tracing facility, it will
be updated by further patches.

<title>ACPI / sysfs: Treat the count field of counter_show() as unsigned</title>

<content type='text'>
The count field is an unsigned 32bit value, and the
counter_show() function should also treat it as a unsigned
value.

Otherwise the counter may show negative number as we found on a
machine:
...
gpe23:        0   invalid
gpe24: -2071733   enabled
gpe25:        0   invalid
...
gpe_all: -2070980

<id>urn:sha1:2f8572344e65296d13c1a771cacfea60916d91dc</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is partial linuxized result of the following ACPICA commit:
  ACPICA commit: a73b66c6aa1846d055bb6390d9c9b9902f7d804d
  Subject: Add "has handler" flag to event/gpe status interfaces.
  This change adds a new flag, ACPI_EVENT_FLAGS_HAS_HANDLER to the
  acpi_get_event_status and acpi_get_gpe_status external interfaces. It
  is set if the event/gpe currently has a handler associated with it.
This patch contains the code to rename ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE to
ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HAS_HANDLER, and the corresponding updates of its usages.

We already have a macro for PREFIX of "ACPI: " in
drivers/acpi/internal.h, so remove the duplicate ones
in ACPI drivers when internal.h is included.

<id>urn:sha1:481c13814a4ecc8305fb7c871067a73cafd09d07</id>
<content type='text'>
The use of "bool" is not safe for ACPICA code where it is originally using
a "BOOLEAN" defined as "unsigned char".

This patch removes the only "bool" usage from kernel source tree to reduce
the source code differences between Linux and ACPICA upstream.

This patch is required by future acpidump release automation.
