ACPI: don't cond_resched() when irqs_disabled()

2008-12-19T09:38:33Z

The ACPI interpreter usually runs with irqs enabled. However, during suspend/resume it runs with irqs disabled to evaluate _GTS/_BFS, as well as by irqrouter_resume() which evaluates _CRS, _PRS, _SRS. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12252 Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: fix 2.6.28 acpi.debug_level regression

2008-12-19T09:38:32Z

acpi_early_init() was changed to over-write the cmdline param, making it really inconvenient to set debug flags at boot-time. Also, This sets the default level to "info", which is what all the ACPI drivers use. So to enable messages from drivers, you only have to supply the "layer" (a.k.a. "component"). For non-"info" ACPI core and ACPI interpreter messages, you have to supply both level and layer masks, as before. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPICA: disable _BIF warning

2008-11-27T07:17:30Z

A generic work-around from ACPICA is in the queue, but since Linux has a work-around in its battery driver, we can disable this warning now. Allow _BIF method to return an Package with Buffer elements http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11822 Signed-off-by: Lin Ming Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPICA: Allow _WAK method to return an Integer

2008-11-27T06:55:13Z

This can happen if the _WAK method returns nothing (as per ACPI 1.0) but does return an integer if the implicit return mechanism is enabled. This is the only method that has this problem, since it is also defined to return a package of two integers (ACPI 1.0b+). In all other cases, if a method returns an object when one was not expected, no warning is issued. Signed-off-by: Bob Moore Signed-off-by: Lin Ming Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPICA: Use spinlock for acpi_{en|dis}able_gpe

2008-11-11T23:35:42Z

Disabling gpe might interfere with gpe detection/handling, thus producing "interrupt not handled" errors. Ironically, disabling of GPE from interrupt context is already under spinlock, so only userspace needs to start using it. Signed-off-by: Alexey Starikovskiy Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: video: Ignore devices that aren't present in hardware

2008-11-08T04:49:23Z

This is a reimplemention of commit 0119509c4fbc9adcef1472817fda295334612976 from Matthew Garrett This patch got removed because of a regression: ThinkPads with a Intel graphics card and an Integrated Graphics Device BIOS implementation stopped working. In fact, they only worked because the ACPI device of the discrete, the wrong one, got used (via int10). So ACPI functions were poking on the wrong hardware used which is a sever bug. The next patch provides support for above ThinkPads to be able to switch brightness via the legacy thinkpad_acpi driver and automatically detect when to use it. Original commit message from Matthew Garrett: Vendors often ship machines with a choice of integrated or discrete graphics, and use the same DSDT for both. As a result, the ACPI video module will locate devices that may not exist on this specific platform. Attempt to determine whether the device exists or not, and abort the device creation if it doesn't. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9614 Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger Acked-by: Zhang Rui Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Len Brown
