ACPI / platform: Add support for build-in properties

2016-11-09T23:30:29+00:00

We have a couple of drivers, acpi_apd.c and acpi_lpss.c,
that need to pass extra build-in properties to the devices
they create. Previously the drivers added those properties
to the struct device which is member of the struct
acpi_device, but that does not work. Those properties need
to be assigned to the struct device of the platform device
instead in order for them to become available to the
drivers.

To fix this, this patch changes acpi_create_platform_device
function to take struct property_entry pointer as parameter.

ACPI / watchdog: Add support for WDAT hardware watchdog

2016-09-24T00:10:04+00:00

Starting from Intel Skylake the iTCO watchdog timer registers were moved to
reside in the same register space with SMBus host controller.  Not all
needed registers are available though and we need to unhide P2SB (Primary
to Sideband) device briefly to be able to read status of required NO_REBOOT
bit. The i2c-i801.c SMBus driver used to handle this and creation of the
iTCO watchdog platform device.

Windows, on the other hand, does not use the iTCO watchdog hardware
directly even if it is available. Instead it relies on ACPI Watchdog Action
Table (WDAT) table to describe the watchdog hardware to the OS. This table
contains necessary information about the the hardware and also set of
actions which are executed by a driver as needed.

This patch implements a new watchdog driver that takes advantage of the
ACPI WDAT table. We split the functionality into two parts: first part
enumerates the WDAT table and if found, populates resources and creates
platform device for the actual driver. The second part is the driver
itself.

The reason for the split is that this way we can make the driver itself to
be a module and loaded automatically if the WDAT table is found. Otherwise
the module is not loaded.

ACPI / EC: Fix a gap that ECDT EC cannot handle EC events

2016-09-10T00:33:50+00:00

It is possible to register _Qxx from namespace and use the ECDT EC to
perform event handling. The reported bug reveals that Windows is using ECDT
in this way in case the namespace EC is not present. This patch facilitates
Linux to support ECDT in this way.

ACPI / drivers: replace acpi_probe_lock spinlock with mutex

2016-09-02T20:22:21+00:00

Commit e647b532275b ("ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructure")
introduced code that allows inserting driver specific
struct acpi_probe_entry probe entries into ACPI linker sections
(one per-subsystem, eg irqchip, clocksource) that are then walked
to retrieve the data and function hooks required to probe the
respective kernel components.

Probing for all entries in a section is triggered through
the __acpi_probe_device_table() function, that in turn, according
to the table ID a given probe entry reports parses the table
with the function retrieved from the respective section structures
(ie struct acpi_probe_entry). Owing to the current ACPI table
parsing implementation, the __acpi_probe_device_table() function
has to share global variables with the acpi_match_madt() function, so
in order to guarantee mutual exclusion locking is required
between the two functions.

Current kernel code implements the locking through the acpi_probe_lock
spinlock; this has the side effect of requiring all code called
within the lock (ie struct acpi_probe_entry.probe_{table/subtbl} hooks)
not to sleep.

However, kernel subsystems that make use of the early probing
infrastructure are relying on kernel APIs that may sleep (eg
irq_domain_alloc_fwnode(), among others) in the function calls
pointed at by struct acpi_probe_entry.{probe_table/subtbl} entries
(eg gic_v2_acpi_init()), which is a bug.

Since __acpi_probe_device_table() is called from context
that is allowed to sleep the acpi_probe_lock spinlock can be replaced
with a mutex; this fixes the issue whilst still guaranteeing
mutual exclusion.

ACPI: add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers

2016-07-08T19:52:35+00:00

Add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers to allow subsystems
to react to changes in the ACPI tables that happen after the initial
enumeration. This is similar with the way dynamic device tree
notifications work.

The reconfigure notifications supported for now are device add and
device remove.

Since ACPICA allows only one table notification handler, this patch
makes the table notifier function generic and moves it out of the
sysfs specific code.

ACPI / scan: fix enumeration (visited) flags for bus rescans

2016-07-08T19:52:34+00:00

If the ACPI tables change as a result of a dinamically loaded table
and a bus rescan is required the enumeration/visited flag are not
consistent.

I2C/SPI are not directly enumerated in acpi_bus_attach(), however
the visited flag is set. This makes it impossible to check if an
ACPI device has already been enumerated by the I2C and SPI
subsystems. To fix this issue we only set the visited flags if
the device is not I2C or SPI.

With this change we also need to remove setting visited to false
from acpi_bus_attach(), otherwise if we rescan already enumerated
I2C/SPI devices we try to re-enumerate them.

Note that I2C/SPI devices can be enumerated either via a scan handler
(when using PRP0001) or via regular device_attach(). In either case
the flow goes through acpi_default_enumeration() which makes it the
ideal place to mark the ACPI device as enumerated.

Xen: ACPI: Hide UART used by Xen

2016-07-06T09:34:41+00:00

ACPI 6.0 introduces a new table STAO to list the devices which are used
by Xen and can't be used by Dom0. On Xen virtual platforms, the physical
UART is used by Xen. So here it hides UART from Dom0.
