ACPICA: create acpica/ directory

ACPICA: Restructure includes into public/private

2008-12-31T06:15:40+00:00

acpi.h now includes only the "public" acpica headers. All other acpica headers are "private" and should not be included by acpica users. One new file, accommon.h is used to include the commonly used private headers for acpica code generation. Future plans are to move all private headers to a new subdirectory.

ACPICA: Fix mutex debug code for wrong loop termination value

ACPICA: Update copyright to 2007.

2007-02-03T02:14:31+00:00

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

ACPI: avoid gcc warnings in ACPI mutex debug code

2006-10-21T05:19:33+00:00

32bit vs 64 bit issues. sizeof(sizeof) and sizeof(pointer) is variable, but we're trying to print it as unsigned int or u32. Casts to unsigned long are used because type acpi_thread_id can be any one of typedef u64 acpi_native_uint; typedef u32 acpi_native_uint; typedef u16 acpi_native_uint; #define acpi_thread_id struct task_struct * Signed-off-by: Martin J.

ACPI: acpi_os_get_thread_id() returns current

2006-07-09T19:19:44+00:00

Linux mutexes and the debug code that that reference acpi_os_get_thread_id() are happy with 0. But the AML mutexes in exmutex.c expect a unique non-zero number for each thread - as they track this thread_id to permit the mutex re-entrancy defined by the ACPI spec. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6687 Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: ACPICA 20060623

2006-06-28T07:11:38+00:00

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

ACPI: ACPICA 20060608

2006-06-14T06:45:47+00:00

Converted the locking mutex used for the ACPI hardware to a spinlock. This change should eliminate all problems caused by attempting to acquire a semaphore at interrupt level, and it means that all ACPICA external interfaces that directly access the ACPI hardware can be safely called from interrupt level. Fixed a regression introduced in 20060526 where the ACPI device initialization could be prematurely aborted with an AE_NOT_FOUND if a device did not have an optional _INI method. Fixed an IndexField issue where a write to the Data Register should be limited in size to the AccessSize (width) of the IndexField itself. (BZ 433, Fiodor Suietov) Fixed problem reports (Valery Podrezov) integrated: - Allow store of ThermalZone objects to Debug object. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5369 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5370 Fixed problem reports (Fiodor Suietov) integrated: - acpi_get_table_header() doesn't handle multiple instances correctly (BZ 364) Removed four global mutexes that were obsolete and were no longer being used.
