ACPI battery: only refresh the sysfs files when pertinent information changes

2012-06-09T15:33:05+00:00

commit c5971456964290da7e98222892797b71ef793e62 upstream.

We only need to regenerate the sysfs files when the capacity units
change, avoid the update otherwise.

The origin of this issue is dates way back to 2.6.38:

ACPICA: Fix regression in FADT revision checks

2012-04-13T15:14:06+00:00

commit 3e80acd1af40fcd91a200b0416a7616b20c5d647 upstream.

	commit 64b3db22c04586997ab4be46dd5a5b99f8a2d390 (2.6.39),
"Remove use of unreliable FADT revision field" causes regression
for old P4 systems because now cst_control and other fields are
not reset to 0.

	The effect is that acpi_processor_power_init will notice
cst_control != 0 and a write to CST_CNT register is performed
that should not happen. As result, the system oopses after the
"No _CST, giving up" message, sometimes in acpi_ns_internalize_name,
sometimes in acpi_ns_get_type, usually at random places. May be
during migration to CPU 1 in acpi_processor_get_throttling.

	Every one of these settings help to avoid this problem:
 - acpi=off
 - processor.nocst=1
 - maxcpus=1

	The fix is to update acpi_gbl_FADT.header.length after
the original value is used to check for old revisions.

ACPI: Do cpufreq clamping for throttling per package v2

2012-04-13T15:14:05+00:00

commit 2815ab92ba3ab27556212cc306288dc95692824b upstream.

On Intel CPUs the processor typically uses the highest frequency
set by any logical CPU. When the system overheats
Linux first forces the frequency to the lowest available one
to lower the temperature.

However this was done only per logical CPU, which means all
logical CPUs in a package would need to go through this before
the frequency is actually lowered.

Worse this delay actually prevents real throttling, because
the real throttle code only proceeds when the lowest frequency
is already reached.

So when a throttle event happens force the lowest frequency
for all CPUs in the package where it happened. The per CPU
state is now kept per package, not per logical CPU. An alternative
would be to do it per cpufreq unit, but since we want to bring
down the temperature of the complete chip it's better
to do it for all.

In principle it may even make sense to do it for all CPUs,
but I kept it on the package for now.

With this change the frequency is actually lowered, which
in terms also allows real throttling to proceed.

I also removed an unnecessary per cpu variable initialization.

PCI: Rework ASPM disable code

2012-02-06T17:24:01+00:00

commit 3c076351c4027a56d5005a39a0b518a4ba393ce2 upstream.

Right now we forcibly clear ASPM state on all devices if the BIOS indicates
that the feature isn't supported. Based on the Microsoft presentation
"PCI Express In Depth for Windows Vista and Beyond", I'm starting to think
that this may be an error. The implication is that unless the platform
grants full control via _OSC, Windows will not touch any PCIe features -
including ASPM. In that case clearing ASPM state would be an error unless
the platform has granted us that control.

This patch reworks the ASPM disabling code such that the actual clearing
of state is triggered by a successful handoff of PCIe control to the OS.
The general ASPM code undergoes some changes in order to ensure that the
ability to clear the bits isn't overridden by ASPM having already been
disabled. Further, this theoretically now allows for situations where
only a subset of PCIe roots hand over control, leaving the others in the
BIOS state.

It's difficult to know for sure that this is the right thing to do -
there's zero public documentation on the interaction between all of these
components. But enough vendors enable ASPM on platforms and then set this
bit that it seems likely that they're expecting the OS to leave them alone.

Measured to save around 5W on an idle Thinkpad X220.

ACPI: processor: fix acpi_get_cpuid for UP processor

2012-01-26T01:24:59+00:00

commit d640113fe80e45ebd4a5b420b220d3f6bf37f682 upstream.

For UP processor, it is likely that no _MAT method or MADT table defined.
So currently acpi_get_cpuid(...) always return -1 for UP processor.
This is wrong. It should return valid value for CPU0.

In the other hand, BIOS may define multiple CPU handles even for UP
processor, for example

        Scope (_PR)
        {
            Processor (CPU0, 0x00, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
            Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
            Processor (CPU2, 0x02, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
            Processor (CPU3, 0x03, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
        }

We should only return valid value for CPU0's acpi handle.
And return invalid value for others.

ACPI: Store SRAT table revision

2012-01-26T01:24:57+00:00

commit 8df0eb7c9d96f9e82f233ee8b74e0f0c8471f868 upstream.

In SRAT v1, we had 8bit proximity domain (PXM) fields; SRAT v2 provides
32bits for these. The new fields were reserved before.
According to the ACPI spec, the OS must disregrard reserved fields.
In order to know whether or not, we must know what version the SRAT
table has.

This patch stores the SRAT table revision for later consumption
by arch specific __init functions.
