Cover letter [PATCH v7 00/17] Introduce ACPI for ARM64 based on ACPI 5.1
Quoted 19 lines · Hanjun Guo
Hi,
This is the v7 of ACPI core patches for ARM64 based on ACPI 5.1
1. Why we need ACPI on ARM64?
- Grant already posted a blog about this, and stated clearly why we need ACPI on ARM64:

2. What we need to do before the arm64 ACPI core patches could be merged into the kernel?
- Al Stone posted a TODO list and updates v2 for the progress we made:

- so from the progress we can see that we already finished most of the items, and
_OSIwe got a plan to fix it, RFC patch is on the way.This patch set was tested on FVP by Fuwei, and booted ok as expected. (No functional change since last version)
For what it's worth, I applied these to the latest 3.19-rc4 kernel and booted that on an APM X-Gene and on pre-release AMD hardware. I then ran a couple of stress tests such as kernel compiles and filesystem stressers on the systems.
I posted my tested-bys to the individual patches but Al Stone recommended I say how the testing was done.
