ACPI: create CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG_FUNC_TRACE

2007-07-22T06:20:07Z

Split ACPI_DEBUG into function trace enabled and not enabled. Function trace is most of the ACPI_DEBUG costs, but is not much of use for kernel ACPI debugging. Size of kernel image increased on test compile: + 48k (Full ACPI_DEBUG) + 35k (ACPI_DEBUG with function trace compiled out) Performance without function trace is also much better. Also remove ACPI_LV_DEBUG_OBJECT from default debug level as a lot vendors let Store (value, debug) in their code and this might confuse users when it pops up in syslog.

ACPI: fix empty macros found by -Wextra

2007-07-22T04:54:24Z

ACPI has a ton of macros which make a bunch of empty if's when configured in non-debug mode. [lenb: The code it complaines about is functionally correct, so this patch is just to make -Wextra happier] #define DBG() if(...) DBG(); next_c_statement which turns into if(...) ; next_c_statement Signed-off-by: Dave Jones Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPICA: Update copyright to 2007.

2007-02-03T02:14:31Z

Added 2007 copyright to all module headers and signons. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem, iASL compiler, and the utilities. Signed-off-by: Alexey Starikovskiy Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPICA: Removed all 16-bit support.

2007-02-03T02:14:30Z

Support for 16-bit ACPICA has been completely removed since it is no longer necessary and it clutters the code. All 16-bit macros, types, and conditional compiles have been removed, cleaning up and simplifying the code across the entire subsystem. DOS support is no longer needed since the Linux firmware kit is now available. Signed-off-by: Alexey Starikovskiy Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: acpi_os_allocate() fixes

2006-07-10T06:37:22Z

Replace acpi_in_resume with a more general hack to check irqs_disabled() on any kmalloc() from ACPI. While setting (system_state != SYSTEM_RUNNING) on resume seemed more general, Andrew Morton preferred this approach. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3469 Make acpi_os_allocate() into an inline function to allow /proc/slab_allocators to work. Delete some memset() that could fault on allocation failure. Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: delete acpi_os_free(), use kfree() directly

ACPI: ACPICA 20060623

2006-06-28T07:11:38Z

Implemented a new acpi_spinlock type for the OSL lock interfaces. This allows the type to be customized to the host OS for improved efficiency (since a spinlock is usually a very small object.) Implemented support for "ignored" bits in the ACPI registers. According to the ACPI specification, these bits should be preserved when writing the registers via a read/modify/write cycle. There are 3 bits preserved in this manner: PM1_CONTROL[0] (SCI_EN), PM1_CONTROL[9], and PM1_STATUS[11]. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3691 Implemented the initial deployment of new OSL mutex interfaces. Since some host operating systems have separate mutex and semaphore objects, this feature was requested. The base code now uses mutexes (and the new mutex interfaces) wherever a binary semaphore was used previously. However, for the current release, the mutex interfaces are defined as macros to map them to the existing semaphore interfaces. Fixed several problems with the support for the control method SyncLevel parameter. The SyncLevel now works according to the ACPI specification and in concert with the Mutex SyncLevel parameter, since the current SyncLevel is a property of the executing thread. Mutual exclusion for control methods is now implemented with a mutex instead of a semaphore. Fixed three instances of the use of the C shift operator in the bitfield support code (exfldio.c) to avoid the use of a shift value larger than the target data width. The behavior of C compilers is undefined in this case and can cause unpredictable results, and therefore the case must be detected and avoided. (Fiodor Suietov) Added an info message whenever an SSDT or OEM table is loaded dynamically via the Load() or LoadTable() ASL operators. This should improve debugging capability since it will show exactly what tables have been loaded (beyond the tables present in the RSDT/XSDT.) Signed-off-by: Bob Moore Signed-off-by: Len Brown

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.
