2008-01-01ACPI: add "processor.ignore_ppc" hook to workaround BIOS _PPC weirdnessThomas Renninger1-1/+15
There have been fixes using _PPC, which seem to unhide a problem on HP nx6125 (double cpufreq switch freezes the machine for several seconds). This one should provide a workaround for the nx6125 and for possible other machines that show any weird _PPC behaviour.

2007-08-08acpi-cpufreq: Fix some x86/x86-64 acpi-cpufreq driver issuesFenghua Yu1-3/+3
This patch addresses some issues in x86/x86-64 acpi-cpufreq driver: 1. Current memory allocation for acpi_perf_data is actually open-coded alloc_percpu(). The patch defines and handles acpi_perf_data as percpu data. The code will be cleaner and easier to be maintained with this change. 2. Won't load driver in acpi_cpufreq_early_init() failure case. 3. Add __init for acpi_cpufreq_early_init().

2007-01-27[PATCH] ACPI: fix cpufreq regressionIngo Molnar1-4/+0
Recently cpufreq support on my laptop (Lenovo T60) broke completely: when it's plugged into AC it would never go higher than 1 GHz - neither 1.3 GHz nor 1.83 GHz is possible - no matter which governor (userspace, speed or ondemand) is used. After some cpufreq debugging i tracked the regression back to the following (totally correct) bug-fix commit: commit 0916bd3ebb7cefdd0f432e8491abe24f4b5a101e Author: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Date: Wed Nov 22 20:42:01 2006 -0500 [PATCH] Correct bound checking from the value returned from _PPC method. This bugfix, which makes other laptops work, made a previously hidden (BIOS) bug visible on my laptop. The bug is the following: if the _PPC (Performance Present Capabilities) optional ACPI object is queried /after/ bootup then the BIOS reports an incorrect value of '2'. My laptop (Lenovo T60) has the following performance states supported: 0: 1833000 1: 1333000 2: 1000000 Per ACPI specification, a _PPC value of '0' means that all 3 performance states are usable. A _PPC value of '1' means states 1 .. 2 are usable, a value of '2' means only state '2' (slowest) is usable. now, the _PPC object is optional, and it also comes with notification. Furthermore, when a CPU object is initialized, the _PPC object is initialized as well. So the following evaluation of the _PPC object is superfluous: [<c028ba5f>] acpi_processor_get_platform_limit+0xa1/0xaf [<c028c040>] acpi_processor_register_performance+0x3b9/0x3ef [<c0111a85>] acpi_cpufreq_cpu_init+0xb7/0x596 [<c03dab74>] cpufreq_add_dev+0x160/0x4a8 [<c02bed90>] sysdev_driver_register+0x5a/0xa0 [<c03d9c4c>] cpufreq_register_driver+0xb4/0x176 [<c068ac08>] acpi_cpufreq_init+0xe5/0xeb [<c010056e>] init+0x14f/0x3dd And this is the point where my laptop's BIOS returns the incorrect value of '2'. Note that it has not sent any notification event, so the value is probably not really intentional (possibly spurious), and Windows likely doesnt query it after bootup either. Maybe the value is kept at '2' normally, and is only set to the real value when a true asynchronous event (such as AC plug event, battery switch, etc.) occurs. So i /think/ this is a grey area of the ACPI spec: per the letter of the spec the _PPC value only changes when notified, so there's no reason to query it after the system has booted up. So in my opinion the best (and most compatible) strategy would be to do the change below, and to not evaluate the _PPC object in the acpi_processor_get_performance_info() call, but only evaluate it if _PPC is present during CPU object init, or if it's notified during an asynchronous event. This change is more permissive than the previous logic, so it definitely shouldnt break any existing system. This also happens to fix my laptop, which is merrily chugging along at 1.83 GHz now. Yay!

2006-11-23[PATCH] Correct bound checking from the value returned from _PPC method.Dave Jones1-3/+1
processor_perflib.c::acpi_processor_ppc_notifier() check if the value returned by the processor's _PPC method is 0 and return failed if so. This is wrong since 0 indicate that the bios think the processor can go to the highest frequency. This patch for example fix the HP NX 6125 to allow its highest frequency to be available.

2006-05-14ACPI: use for_each_possible_cpu() instead of for_each_cpu()KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki1-6/+6
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs. We've had mistakes in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been iterating across only online or present CPUs. This is inefficient and possibly buggy. We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the future.

2005-12-01[ACPI] Avoid BIOS inflicted crashes by evaluating _PDC only onceVenkatesh Pallipadi1-2/+0
Linux invokes the AML _PDC method (Processor Driver Capabilities) to tell the BIOS what features it can handle. While the ACPI spec says nothing about the OS invoking _PDC multiple times, doing so with changing bits seems to hopelessly confuse the BIOS on multiple platforms up to and including crashing the system. Factor out the _PDC invocation so Linux invokes it only once. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5483 Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
