2006-12-02ACPI: Change ACPI to use dev_archdata instead of firmware_dataBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-9/+11
Change ACPI to use dev_archdata instead of firmware_data This patch changes ACPI to use the new dev_archdata on i386, x86_64 and ia64 (is there any other arch using ACPI ?) to store it's acpi_handle. It also removes the firmware_data field from struct device as this was the only user.

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.

2006-11-18Revert "ACPI: created a dedicated workqueue for notify() execution"Linus Torvalds1-13/+21
This reverts commit 37605a6900f6b4d886d995751fcfeef88c4e462c. Again. This same bug has now been introduced twice: it was done earlier by commit b8d35192c55fb055792ff0641408eaaec7c88988, only to be reverted last time in commit 72945b2b90a5554975b8f72673ab7139d232a121. We must NOT try to queue up notify handlers to another thread than the normal ACPI execution thread, because the notifications on some systems seem to just keep on accumulating until we run out of memory and/or threads. Keeping events within the one deferred execution thread automatically throttles the events properly. At least the Compaq N620c will lock up completely on the first thermal event without this patch reverted.

2006-10-20[PATCH] acpi memory hotplug: remove strange add_memory fail messageYasunori Goto1-0/+12
I wrote a patch to avoid redundant memory hot-add call at boot time. This was cause of strange fail message of memory hotplug like "ACPI: add_memory failed". Memory is recognized by early boot code with EFI/E820. But, if DSDT describes memory devices for them, then hot-add code is called for already recognized memory, and it shows fail messages with -EEXIST. So, sys admin will misunderstand this message as something wrong by it. This patch avoids them by preventing redundant hot-add call until completion of driver initialization.

2006-10-20[PATCH] fix "ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAIT"Darrick J. Wong1-1/+1
This patch breaks C-state discovery on my IBM IntelliStation Z30 because the return value of acpi_processor_get_power_info_fadt is not assigned to "result" in the case that acpi_processor_get_power_info_cst returns -ENODEV. Thus, if ACPI provides C-state data via the FADT and not _CST (as is the case on this machine), we incorrectly exit the function with -ENODEV after reading the FADT. The attached patch sets the value of result so that we don't exit early. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2006-10-14ACPI: consolidate functions in acpi ec driverLennart Poettering1-230/+95
Unify the following functions: acpi_ec_poll_read() acpi_ec_poll_write() acpi_ec_poll_query() acpi_ec_intr_read() acpi_ec_intr_write() acpi_ec_intr_query() into: acpi_ec_poll_transaction() acpi_ec_intr_transaction() These new functions take as arguments an ACPI EC command, a few bytes to write to the EC data register and a buffer for a few bytes to read from the EC data register. The old _read(), _write(), _query() are just special cases of these functions. Then unified the code in acpi_ec_poll_transaction() and acpi_ec_intr_transaction() a little more. Both functions are now just wrappers around the new acpi_ec_transaction_unlocked() function. The latter contains the EC access logic, the two original function now just do their special way of locking and call the the new function for the actual work. This saves a lot of very similar code. The primary reason for doing this, however, is that my driver for MSI 270 laptops needs to issue some non-standard EC commands in a safe way. Due to this I added a new exported function similar to ec_write()/ec_write() which is called ec_transaction() and is essentially just a wrapper around acpi_ec_{poll,intr}_transaction().

2006-10-14ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAITVenkatesh Pallipadi1-38/+63
Intel processors starting with the Core Duo support support processor native C-state using the MWAIT instruction. Refer: Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/253668.htm Platform firmware exports the support for Native C-state to OS using ACPI _PDC and _CST methods. Refer: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI: Interface Specification http://www.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/302223.htm With Processor Native C-state, we use 'MWAIT' instruction on the processor to enter different C-states (C1, C2, C3). We won't use the special IO ports to enter C-state and no SMM mode etc required to enter C-state. Overall this will mean better C-state support. One major advantage of using MWAIT for all C-states is, with this and "treat interrupt as break event" feature of MWAIT, we can now get accurate timing for the time spent in C1, C2, .. states.

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells1-1/+1
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-10-01[PATCH] maximum latency tracking infrastructureArjan van de Ven1-4/+34
Add infrastructure to track "maximum allowable latency" for power saving policies. The reason for adding this infrastructure is that power management in the idle loop needs to make a tradeoff between latency and power savings (deeper power save modes have a longer latency to running code again). The code that today makes this tradeoff just does a rather simple algorithm; however this is not good enough: There are devices and use cases where a lower latency is required than that the higher power saving states provide. An example would be audio playback, but another example is the ipw2100 wireless driver that right now has a very direct and ugly acpi hook to disable some higher power states randomly when it gets certain types of error. The proposed solution is to have an interface where drivers can * announce the maximum latency (in microseconds) that they can deal with * modify this latency * give up their constraint and a function where the code that decides on power saving strategy can query the current global desired maximum. This patch has a user of each side: on the consumer side, ACPI is patched to use this, on the producer side the ipw2100 driver is patched. A generic maximum latency is also registered of 2 timer ticks (more and you lose accurate time tracking after all). While the existing users of the patch are x86 specific, the infrastructure is not. I'd like to ask the arch maintainers of other architectures if the infrastructure is generic enough for their use (assuming the architecture has such a tradeoff as concept at all), and the sound/multimedia driver owners to look at the driver facing API to see if this is something they can use.

2006-10-01[PATCH] hot-add-mem x86_64: memory_add_physaddr_to_nid node fixupKeith Mannthey1-0/+4
In cases where the acpi memory-add event does not containe the pxm (node) infomation allow the driver to look up node info based on the address. The acpi_get_node call returns -1 if it can't decode the pxm info, this causes add_memory to panic. acpi_get_node would have to decode the resource from the handle (a lenghty proposition). This seems to be the cleanist point to interject the hook.
