2016-12-21ACPICA: Tables: Back port acpi_get_table_with_size() and ↵Lv Zheng
early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() from Linux kernel ACPICA commit cac6790954d4d752a083e6122220b8a22febcd07 This patch back ports Linux acpi_get_table_with_size() and early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() into ACPICA upstream to reduce divergences. The 2 APIs are used by Linux as table management APIs for long time, it contains a hidden logic that during the early stage, the mapped tables should be unmapped before the early stage ends. During the early stage, tables are handled by the following sequence: acpi_get_table_with_size(); parse the table early_acpi_os_unmap_memory(); During the late stage, tables are handled by the following sequence: acpi_get_table(); parse the table Linux uses acpi_gbl_permanent_mmap to distinguish the early stage and the late stage. The reasoning of introducing acpi_get_table_with_size() is: ACPICA will remember the early mapped pointer in acpi_get_table() and Linux isn't able to prevent ACPICA from using the wrong early mapped pointer during the late stage as there is no API provided from ACPICA to be an inverse of acpi_get_table() to forget the early mapped pointer. But how ACPICA can work with the early/late stage requirement? Inside of ACPICA, tables are ensured to be remained in "INSTALLED" state during the early stage, and they are carefully not transitioned to "VALIDATED" state until the late stage. So the same logic is in fact implemented inside of ACPICA in a different way. The gap is only that the feature is not provided to the OSPMs in an accessible external API style. It then is possible to fix the gap by providing an inverse of acpi_get_table() from ACPICA, so that the two Linux sequences can be combined: acpi_get_table(); parse the table acpi_put_table(); In order to work easier with the current Linux code, acpi_get_table() and acpi_put_table() is implemented in a usage counting based style: 1. When the usage count of the table is increased from 0 to 1, table is mapped and .Pointer is set with the mapping address (VALIDATED); 2. When the usage count of the table is decreased from 1 to 0, .Pointer is unset and the mapping address is unmapped (INVALIDATED). So that we can deploy the new APIs to Linux with minimal effort by just invoking acpi_get_table() in acpi_get_table_with_size() and invoking acpi_put_table() in early_acpi_os_unmap_memory().

2014-04-20ACPICA: Tables: Cleanup ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags.Lv Zheng
This patch refines ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. No functional changes. The previous commits have introduced the following internal APIs: 1. acpi_tb_acquire_table: Acquire struct acpi_table_header according to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. 2. acpi_tb_release_table: Release struct acpi_table_header according to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. 3. acpi_tb_install_table: Make struct acpi_table_desc.Address not NULL according to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. 4. acpi_tb_uninstall_table: Make struct acpi_table_desc.Address NULL according to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. 5. acpi_tb_validate_table: Make struct acpi_table_desc.Pointer not NULL according to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. 6. acpi_tb_invalidate_table: Make struct acpi_table_desc.Pointer NULL according to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxx flags. It thus detects that the ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN is redundant to ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_OVERRIDE. The ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_xxTERN_VIRTUAL flags are named as VIRTUAL in order not to confuse with x86 logical address, this patch also renames all "logical override" into "virtual override".

Some platforms contain an XSDT that is ill-formed or otherwise invalid (such as containing some or all entries that are NULL pointers). This change adds a new function to validate the XSDT before actually using it. If the XSDT is found to be invalid, ACPICA will now fall back to using the RSDT instead. This feature is already in the Linux kernel. When it is back ported to ACPICA, code is refined to follow ACPICA coding style and this patch is the generation of the integration.

2013-01-10ACPICA: Cleanup indentation to reduce differences between Linux and ACPICA.Lv Zheng
This is a cosmetic patch only. Comparison of the resulting binary showed only line number differences. This patch does not affect the generation of the Linux binary. This patch decreases 210 lines of 20121018 divergence.diff. The ACPICA source codes uses a totally different indentation style from the Linux to be compatible with other users (operating systems or BIOS). Indentation differences are critical to the release automation. There are two causes related to the "indentation" that are affecting the release automation: 1. The ACPICA -> Linux release process is: ACPICA source -- acpisrc - hierarchy - indent -> linuxized ACPICA source -- diff -> linuxized ACPICA patch (x) -- human intervention -> linuxized ACPICA patch (o) Where 'x' means "cannot be directly applied to the Linux" 'o' means "can be directly applied to the Linux" Different "indent" version or "indent" options used in the "indent" step will lead to different divergences. The version of "indent" used for the current release process is: GNU indent 2.2.11 The options of "indent" used for the current release process is: -npro -kr -i8 -ts8 -sob -l80 -ss -ncs 2. Manual indentation prettifying work in the Linux side will also harm the automatically generated linuxized ACPICA patches, making them impossible to apply directly. This patch fixes source code differences caused by the two causes so that the "human intervention" can be reduced in the future. Signed-off-by: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2012-09-21ACPICA: Add support for complex _PLD buffers.Bob Moore
_PLD (Physical Location of Device) returns a bit-packed buffer that is difficult to parse. This change adds a new interface, AcpiDecodePldBuffer that parses the buffer into a more usable local struct. Also adds macros to both get and set individual fields within the packed _PLD buffer. Adds a new include file, acbuffer.h - which will be expanded to add structs for other ACPI names that return buffers. ACPICA BZ 954. Emit (in comments) the decoded contents of a static _PLD buffer in order to improve comprehension of this bit-packed buffer. Add multi-endian support to the _PLD decode routine.

2006-06-14ACPI: ACPICA 20060512Bob Moore
Replaced the acpi_os_queue_for_execution() with a new interface named acpi_os_execute(). The major difference is that the new interface does not have a Priority parameter, this appeared to be useless and has been replaced by a Type parameter. The Type tells the OS what type of execution is being requested, such as global lock handler, notify handler, GPE handler, etc. This allows the host to queue and execute the request as appropriate for the request type, possibly using different work queues and different priorities for the various request types. This enables fixes for multithreading deadlock problems such as http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5534 (Alexey Starikovskiy and Bob Moore) Fixed a possible memory leak associated with the support for the so-called "implicit return" ACPI extension. Reported by FreeBSD (Fiodor Suietov) http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6514 Fixed a problem with the Load() operator where a table load from an operation region could overwrite an internal table buffer by up to 7 bytes and cause alignment faults on IPF systems.

Implemented header file support for the following additional ACPI tables: ASF!, BOOT, CPEP, DBGP, MCFG, SPCR, SPMI, TCPA, and WDRT. With this support, all current and known ACPI tables are now defined in the ACPICA headers and are available for use by device drivers and other software. Implemented support to allow tables that contain ACPI names with invalid characters to be loaded. Previously, this would cause the table load to fail, but since there are several known cases of such tables on existing machines, this change was made to enable ACPI support for them. Also, this matches the behavior of the Microsoft ACPI implementation. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=147621 Fixed a couple regressions introduced during the memory optimization in the 20060317 release. The namespace node definition required additional reorganization and an internal datatype that had been changed to 8-bit was restored to 32-bit. (Valery Podrezov) Fixed a problem where a null pointer passed to acpi_ut_delete_generic_state() could be passed through to acpi_os_release_object which is unexpected. Such null pointers are now trapped and ignored, matching the behavior of the previous implementation before the deployment of acpi_os_release_object(). (Valery Podrezov, Fiodor Suietov) Fixed a memory mapping leak during the deletion of a SystemMemory operation region where a cached memory mapping was not deleted. This became a noticeable problem for operation regions that are defined within frequently used control methods. (Dana Meyers) Reorganized the ACPI table header files into two main files: one for the ACPI tables consumed by the ACPICA core, and another for the miscellaneous ACPI tables that are consumed by the drivers and other software. The various FADT definitions were merged into one common section and three different tables (ACPI 1.0, 1.0+, and 2.0) Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
