commit 4c533c801d1c9b5c38458a0e7516e0cf50643782 upstream.

acpi_scan_is_offline() may be called under the physical_node_lock
lock of the given device object's parent, so prevent lockdep from
complaining about that by annotating that instance with
SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING.

<title>ACPI / scan: No implicit wake notification for buttons</title>

commit bd9b2f9aff26c185c1f8e0cd08a850ee4ace391a upstream.

The ACPI device enumeration code in Linux assumes that buttons always
are wakeup devices, so it calls acpi_setup_gpe_for_wake() for them
which leads to undesirable side effects.  Namely, that function sets
up implicit device wake notification mechanism for a given GPE if
there is no handler method in the ACPI namespace, which from the
ACPICA's perspective means that there always is a way to handle
that GPE if enabled.  However, we don't handle wake notify events
for buttons, so if there are no handler methods for their GPEs in
the namespace, enabling a button GPE at run time leads to a GPE
storm in some cases (the GPE triggers, ACPICA carries out the
implicit wake notification for it which isn't handled, so the
GPE triggers again and so on).

To prevent that from happening use acpi_mark_gpe_for_wake()
instead of acpi_setup_gpe_for_wake() for buttons which will cause
ACPICA to only enable button GPEs if there are handler methods for
the in the namespace.

<title>ACPI / PM: Fix PM initialization for devices that are not present</title>

commit 1b1f3e1699a9886f1070f94171097ab4ccdbfc95 upstream.

If an ACPI device object whose _STA returns 0 (not present and not
functional) has _PR0 or _PS0, its power_manageable flag will be set
and acpi_bus_init_power() will return 0 for it.  Consequently, if
such a device object is passed to the ACPI device PM functions, they
will attempt to carry out the requested operation on the device,
although they should not do that for devices that are not present.

To fix that problem make acpi_bus_init_power() return an error code
for devices that are not present which will cause power_manageable to
be cleared for them as appropriate in acpi_bus_get_power_flags().
However, the lists of power resources should not be freed for the
device in that case, so modify acpi_bus_get_power_flags() to keep
those lists even if acpi_bus_init_power() returns an error.
Accordingly, when deciding whether or not the lists of power
resources need to be freed, acpi_free_power_resources_lists()
should check the power.flags.power_resources flag instead of
flags.power_manageable, so make that change too.

Furthermore, if acpi_bus_attach() sees that flags.initialized is
unset for the given device, it should reset the power management
settings of the device and re-initialize them from scratch instead
of relying on the previous settings (the device may have appeared
after being not present previously, for example), so make it use
the 'valid' flag of the D0 power state as the initial value of
flags.power_manageable for it and call acpi_bus_init_power() to
discover its current power state.

Commit 46394fd01 (ACPI / hotplug: Move container-specific code out of
the core) removed the generation of "online" uevents for containers,
because "add" uevents are now generated for them automatically when
container system devices are registered.  However, there are user
space tools that need to be notified when the container and all of
its children have been enumerated, which doesn't happen any more.

For this reason, add a mechanism allowing "online" uevents to be
generated for ACPI containers after enumerating the container along
with all of its children.

commit a383b68d9fe9864c4d3b86f67ad6488f58136435 upstream.

The _SUN device indentification object is not guaranteed to return
the same value every time it is executed, so we should not cache its
return value, but rather execute it every time as needed.  If it is
cached, an incorrect stale value may be used in some situations.

This issue was exposed by commit 202317a573b2 (ACPI / scan: Add
acpi_device objects for all device nodes in the namespace).  Fix it
by avoiding to cache the return value of _SUN.

commit fc2e0a8326d1b21d11ef8213298e5302867fed2c upstream.

We generally don't allow ACPI drivers to bind to ACPI device objects
that companion "physical" device objects are created for to avoid
situations in which two different drivers may attempt to handle one
device at the same time.  Recent ACPI device enumeration rework
extended that approach to ACPI PNP devices by starting to use a scan
handler for enumerating them.  However, we previously allowed ACPI
drivers to bind to ACPI device objects with existing PNP device
companions and changing that led to functional regressions on some
systems.

For this reason, add a special check for PNP devices in
acpi_device_probe() so that ACPI drivers can bind to ACPI device
objects having existing PNP device companions as before.

commit 236105db632c6279a020f78c83e22eaef746006b upstream.

Currently, notify callbacks for fixed button events are run from
interrupt context.  That is not necessary and after commit 0bf6368ee8f2
(ACPI / button: Add ACPI Button event via netlink routine) it causes
netlink routines to be called from interrupt context which is not
correct.

Also, that is different from non-fixed device events (including
non-fixed button events) whose notify callbacks are all executed from
process context.

For the above reasons, make fixed button device notify callbacks run
in process context which will avoid the deadlock when using netlink
to report button events to user space.

commit dee1592638ab7ea35a32179b73f9284dead49c03 upstream.

When ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY is not configured, memory_device_handler.attach
is not set.  In acpi_scan_attach_handler(), the acpi_device-&gt;handler will
not be initialized.

In acpi_scan_hot_remove(), it doesn't check if acpi_device-&gt;handler is NULL.
If we do memory hot-remove without ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY configured, the kernel
will panic.
