ACPI / video: Add force_native quirk for HP Pavilion dv6

2017-01-09T07:32:18+00:00

commit 6276e53fa8c06a3a5cf7b95b77b079966de9ad66 upstream.

The HP Pavilion dv6 has a non-working acpi_video0 backlight interface
and an intel_backlight interface which works fine. Add a force_native
quirk for it so that the non-working acpi_video0 interface does not get
registered.

Note that there are quite a few HP Pavilion dv6 variants, some
woth ATI and some with NVIDIA hybrid gfx, both seem to need this
quirk to have working backlight control. There are also some versions
with only Intel integrated gfx, these may not need this quirk, but it
should not hurt there.

ACPI / video: Add force_native quirk for Dell XPS 17 L702X

2017-01-09T07:32:18+00:00

commit 350fa038c31b056fc509624efb66348ac2c1e3d0 upstream.

The Dell XPS 17 L702X has a non-working acpi_video0 backlight interface
and an intel_backlight interface which works fine. Add a force_native
quirk for it so that the non-working acpi_video0 interface does not get
registered.

Note that there also is an issue with the brightnesskeys on this laptop,
they do not generate key-press events in anyway. That is not solved by
this patch.

tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()

2016-12-07T01:42:36+00:00

A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling
routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage
for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before
probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl()
and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing
the rest of the tests to not run / fail.

This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS
behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress
against implementations it has seen in practice.

acpi, nfit: fix bus vs dimm confusion in xlat_status

2016-12-07T00:30:37+00:00

Given dimms and bus commands share the same command number space we need
to be careful that we are translating status in the correct context.
Otherwise we can, for example, fail an ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE command
because max_xfer is zero. It fails because that condition erroneously
correlates with the 'cleared == 0' failure of ND_CMD_CLEAR_ERROR.

acpi, nfit: validate ars_status output buffer size

If an ARS Status command returns truncated output, do not process
partial records or otherwise consume non-status fields.

acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handling

2016-12-07T00:08:10+00:00

Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)"
field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware
implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there
is no output payload to process.

The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this
field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire
payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS
Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status
and Extended Status fields)".

Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory
corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit
test.

acpi, nfit: fix extended status translations for ACPI DSMs

2016-12-07T00:08:10+00:00

ACPI DSMs can have an 'extended' status which can be non-zero to convey
additional information about the command. In the xlat_status routine,
where we translate the command statuses, we were returning an error for
a non-zero extended status, even if the primary status indicated success.

Return from each command's 'case' once we have verified both its status
and extend status are good.
