3fa2cdcc45 ACPI: video: Ignore ACPI video devices that aren't present in hardware
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 do not exist.

df92e69599 ACPI: track opregion names to avoid driver resource conflicts.
Small ACPICA extension to be able to store the name of operation regions in osl.c later

In ACPI, AML can define accesses to IO ports and System Memory by Operation
Regions.  Those are not registered as done by PNPACPI using resource templates
(and _CRS/_SRS methods).

The IO ports and System Memory regions may get accessed by arbitrary AML code.
 When native drivers are accessing the same resources bad things can happen
(e.g.  a critical shutdown temperature of 3000 C every 2 months or so).

It is not really possible to register the operation regions via
request_resource, as they often overlap with pnp or other resources (e.g.
statically setup IO resources below 0x100).

This approach stores all Operation Region declarations (IO and System Memory
only) at ACPI table parse time.  It offers a similar functionality like
request_region and let drivers which are known to possibly use the same IO
ports and Memory which are also often used by ACPI (hwmon and i2c) check for
ACPI interference.

A boot parameter acpi_enforce_resources=strict/lax/no is provided, which
is default set to lax:
  - strict: let conflicting drivers fail to load with an error message
  - lax:    let conflicting driver work normal with a warning message
  - no:     no functional change at all
Depending on the feedback and the kind of interferences we see, this
should be set to strict at later time.

Goal of this patch set is:
  - Identify ACPI interferences in bug reports (very hard to reproduce
    and to identify)
  - Find BIOSes for that an ACPI driver should exist for specific HW
    instead of a native one.
  - stability in general

Provide acpi_check_{mem_}region.

Drivers can additionally check against possible ACPI interference by also
invoking this shortly before they call request_region.
If -EBUSY is returned, the driver must not load.
Use acpi_enforce_resources=strict/lax/no options to:
  - strict: let conflicting drivers fail to load with an error message
  - lax:    let conflicting driver work normal with a warning message
  - no:     no functional change at all

bff431e49f ACPI: WMI: Add ACPI-WMI mapping driver
The following is an implementation of the Windows Management
Instrumentation (WMI) ACPI interface mapper (PNP0C14).

What it does:

Parses the _WDG method and exports functions to process WMI method calls,
data block query/ set commands (both based on GUID) and does basic event
handling.

How: WMI presents an in kernel interface here (essentially, a minimal
wrapper around ACPI)

(const char *guid assume the 36 character ASCII representation of
a GUID - e.g. 67C3371D-95A3-4C37-BB61-DD47B491DAAB)

wmi_evaluate_method(const char *guid, u8 instance, u32 method_id,
const struct acpi_buffer *in, struct acpi_buffer *out)

wmi_query_block(const char *guid, u8 instance,
struct acpi_buffer *out)

wmi_set_block(const char *guid, u38 instance,
const struct acpi_buffer *in)

wmi_install_notify_handler(acpi_notify_handler handler);

wmi_remove_notify_handler(void);

wmi_get_event_data(u32 event, struct acpi_buffer *out)

wmi_has_guid(const char guid*)

wmi_has_guid() is a helper function to find if a GUID exists or not on the
system (a quick and easy way for WMI dependant drivers to see if the
the method/ block they want exists, since GUIDs are supposed to be unique).

Event handling - allow a WMI based driver to register a notifier handler
for each GUID with WMI. When a notification is sent to a GUID in WMI, the
handler registered with WMI is then called (it is left to the caller to
ask for the WMI event data associated with the GUID, if needed).

What it won't do:

Unicode - The MS article[1] calls for converting between ASCII and Unicode (or
vice versa) if a GUID is marked as "string". This is left up to the calling
driver.

Handle a MOF[1] - the WMI mapper just exports methods, data and events to
userspace. MOF handling is down to userspace.

Userspace interface - this will be added later.

ChangeLog
==

v1 (2007-10-02):

* Initial release

v2 (2007-10-05):

* Cleaned up code - split up super "wmi_evaluate_block" -> each external
  symbol now handles its own ACPI calls, rather than handing off to
  a "super" method (and in turn, is a lot simpler to read)
* Added a find_guid() symbol - return true if a given GUID exists on
  the system
* wmi_* functions now return type acpi_status (since they are just
  fancy wrappers around acpi_evaluate_object())
* Removed extra debug code

v3 (2007-10-27)

* More code clean up - now passes checkpatch.pl
* Change data block calls - ref MS spec, method ID is not required for
  them, so drop it from the function parameters.
* Const'ify guid in the function call parameters.
* Fix _WDG buffer handling - copy the data to our own private structure.
* Change WMI from tristate to bool - otherwise the external functions are
  not exported in linux/acpi.h if you try to build WMI as a module.
* Fix more flag comparisons.
* Add a maintainers entry - since I wrote this, I should take the blame
  for it.

v4 (2007-10-30)

* Add missing brace from after fixing checkpatch errors.
* Rewrote event handling - allow external drivers to register with WMI to
  handle WMI events
* Clean up flags and sanitise flag handling

v5 (2007-11-03)

* Add sysfs interface for userspace. Export events over netlink again.
* Remove module left overs, fully convert to built-in driver.
* Tweak in-kernel API to use u8 for instance, since this is what the GUID
  blocks use (so instance cannot be greater than u8).
* Export wmi_get_event_data() for in kernel WMI drivers.

v6 (2007-11-07)

* Split out userspace into a different patch

v7 (2007-11-20)

* Fix driver to handle multiple PNP0C14 devices - store all GUIDs using
  the kernel's built in list functions, and just keep adding to the list
  every time we handle a PNP0C14 devices - GUIDs will always be unique,
  and WMI callers do not know or care about different devices.
* Change WMI event handler registration to use its' own event handling
  struct; we should not pass an acpi_handle down to any WMI based drivers
  - they should be able to function with only the calls provided in WMI.
* Update my e-mail address

v8 (2007-11-28)

* Convert back to a module.
* Update Kconfig to default to building as a module.
* Remove an erroneous printk.
* Simply comments for string flag (since we now leave the handling to the
  caller).

v9 (2007-12-07)

* Add back missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for autoloading
* Checkpatch fixes

v10 (2007-12-12)

* Workaround broken GUIDs declared expensive without a WCxx method.
* Minor cleanups

v11 (2007-12-17)

* More fixing for broken GUIDs declared expensive without a WCxx method.
* Add basic EmbeddedControl region handling.

v12 (2007-12-18)

* Changed EC region handling code, as per Alexey's comments.

v13 (2007-12-27)

* Changed event handling so that we can have one event handler registered
  per GUID, as per Matthew Garrett's suggestion.

v14 (2008-01-12)

* Remove ACPI debug statements

v15 (2008-02-01)

* Replace two remaining 'x == NULL' type tests with '!x'

v16 (2008-02-05)

* Change MAINTAINERS entry, as I am not, and never have been, paid to work
  on WMI
* Remove 'default' line from Kconfig

33a2a529f7 ACPI: Update the t-state for every affected cpu when t-state is changed
According to ACPI spec, the _TSD object provides T-state control cross
logical processor dependency information to OSPM. So the t-state
coordination should be considered when T-state for one cpu is changed.

According to ACPI spec, three types of coordination are defined.
SW_ALL, SW_ANY and HW_ALL.

SW_ALL: it means that OSPM needs to initiate T-state transition on
all processors in the domain. It is necessary to call throttling set function
for all affected cpus.

SW_ANY: it means that OSPM may initiate T-state transition on any processor in
the domain.

HW_ALL: Spec only says that hardware will perform the coordination and doesn't
recommend how OSPM coordinate T-state among the affected cpus. So it is treated
as the type of SW_ALL. It means that OSPM needs to initiate t-state transition
on all the processors in the domain.

is changed.It means that OSPM should select one proper target T-state for
the all affected cpus before updating T-state.

So the function of acpi_processor_throttling_notifier is added.
Before updating T-state it can be called for all  the affected cpus to get
the proper target T-state, which can meet the requirement of thermal, user and
_TPC. After updating T-state, it can be called to update T-state flag.

the T-state coordination between CPUs.

Of course if the _TSD doesn't exist or _TSD data is incorrect , it is
assumed that there is no T-state coordination and T-state is changed
independently.

Now there is no proper solution to update T-state coordination after
one cpu is hotplugged. So this patch won't support hotplugged cpu very well.

87654273ef ACPI : Check parameter when calling acpi_processor_get/set_throttling
It is necessary to check the parameter when calling the function of
acpi_processor_get/set_throttling function so as to avoid the NULL
pointer reference in pr or throttling.

0119509c4f ACPI: video: Ignore devices that aren't present in hardware
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.
