Linux/ACPI 2.6 release status
Folks,
As 2.6.0 is effectively frozen, I'd like to integrate further ACPI development into a 2.6.0 ACPI patch -- basically what we will request to integrate into 2.6.1 when that opens.
The 2.6.0 linux-acpi-release tree now contains two ACPICA updates, plus a handful of other patches. Please give it a go.
Yes, this is a good time to remind me about, or update and re-send patches that we were not able to handle in time for 2.6.0.
thanks,
-Len

<[email protected]> (03/12/11 1.1486)
[ACPI] Update Linux to ACPICA 20031203 (Bob Moore)
Changed the initialization of Operation Regions during subsystem init
to
perform two entire walks of the ACPI namespace; The first to
initialize
the regions themselves, the second to execute the _REG methods. This fixed some interdependencies across _REG methods found on some
machines.
Fixed a problem where a Store(Local0, Local1) could simply update the object reference count, and not create a new copy of the object if
the
Local1 is uninitialized.
Implemented support for the _SST reserved method during sleep transitions.
Implemented support to clear the SLP_TYP and SLP_EN bits when waking
up,
this is apparently required by some machines.
When sleeping, clear the wake status only if SleepState is not S5.
Fixed a problem in AcpiRsExtendedIrqResource() where an incorrect pointer arithmetic advanced a string pointer too far.
Fixed a problem in AcpiTbGetTablePtr() where a garbage pointer could
be
returned if the requested table has not been loaded.
Within the support for IRQ resources, restructured the handling of
the
active and edge/level bits.
Fixed a few problems in AcpiPsxExecute() where memory could be leaked under certain error conditions.
Improved error messages for the cases where the ACPI mode could not
be
entered.

[ACPI] update Linux to ACPICA 20031029 (Bob Moore)
Fixed a problem where a level-triggered GPE with an associated _Lxx control method was incorrectly cleared twice.
Fixed a problem with the Field support code where an access can occur beyond the end-of-region if the field is non-aligned but extends to
the
very end of the parent region (resulted in an AE_AML_REGION_LIMIT exception.)
Fixed a problem with ACPI Fixed Events where an RT Clock handler
would
not get invoked on an RTC event. The RTC event bitmasks for the PM1 registers were not being initialized properly.
Implemented support for executing _STA and _INI methods for Processor objects. Although this is currently not part of the ACPI
specification,
there is existing ASL code that depends on the init-time execution of these methods.
Implemented and deployed a GetDescriptorName function to decode the various types of internal descriptors. Guards against null
descriptors
during debug output also.
Implemented and deployed a GetNodeName function to extract the 4-character namespace node name. This function simplifies the debug
and
error output, as well as guarding against null pointers during
output.
Implemented and deployed the ACPI_FORMAT_UINT64 helper macro to
simplify
the debug and error output of 64-bit integers. This macro replaces
the
HIDWORD and LODWORD macros for dumping these integers.
Updated the implementation of the Stall() operator to only call AcpiOsStall(), and also return an error if the operand is larger than
255. This preserves the required behavior of not relinquishing the processor, as would happen if AcpiOsSleep() was called for "long stalls".
Constructs of the form "Store(LocalX,LocalX)" where LocalX is not initialized are now treated as NOOPs.
Cleaned up a handful of warnings during 64-bit generation.
Fixed a reported error where and incorrect GPE number was passed to
the
GPE dispatch handler. This value is only used for error output, however. Used this opportunity to clean up and streamline the GPE dispatch code.

Quincey)

[ACPI] fix compiler warning (Andrew Morton)
<[email protected]> (03/11/18 1.1450.2.3)
[ACPI] "acpi_pic_sci=edge" in case platform requires Edge Triggered
SCI

<[email protected]> (03/11/18 1.1450.2.2)
[ACPI] print_IO_APIC() only after it is programmed
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177
<[email protected]> (03/11/07 1.1414.1.7)
[ACPI] In ACPI mode, delay print_IO_APIC() to make its output valid.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177
<[email protected]> (03/11/07 1.1414.1.6)
[ACPI] If ACPI is disabled by DMI BIOS date, then
turn it off completely, including table parsing for HT. This avoids a crash due to ancient garbled tables. acpi=force is available to over-ride this default.
