2010-10-01ACPICA: iASL/Disassembler: Write ACPI errors to stderr instead of output fileBob Moore
This keeps the output files clean of random error messages that may originate from within the namespace/interpreter code. Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2010-07-06ACPICA: Performance enhancement for namespace search and accessAlexey Starikovskiy
This change enhances the performance of namespace searches and walks by adding a backpointer to the parent in each namespace node. On large namespaces, this change can improve overall ACPI performance by up to 9X. Adding a pointer to each namespace node increases the overall size of the internal namespace by about 5%, since each namespace entry usually consists of both a namespace node and an ACPI operand object.

2010-01-22ACPICA: Predefined name repair: fix NULL package elementsBob Moore
For the predefined methods that return fixed-length packages (or subpackages), attempt repair for a NULL element. Create an Integer of value 0, a NULL String, or a zero-length buffer as appropriate. http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=818 Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2010-01-22ACPICA: Update all ACPICA copyrights and signons to 2010Bob Moore
Add 2010 copyright to all module headers and signons, including the Linux header. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem, iASL compiler, and all utilities.

2009-12-15ACPICA: Predefined name repair: automatically remove null package elementsBob Moore
This change will automatically remove embedded and trailing NULL package elements from returned package objects that are defined to containe a variable number of sub-packages. The driver is then presented with a package with no null elements to deal with. ACPICA BZ 819. http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=819 Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2009-12-15ACPICA: Update internal namespace node/handle interfacesBob Moore
This change deletes the unnecessary acpi_ns_convert_entry_to_handle interface and renames the acpi_ns_map_handle_to_node interface to acpi_ns_validate_handle.

2009-11-24ACPICA: Add repair for predefined methods that must return sorted listsBob Moore
This change will repair (by sorting) packages returned by _ALR, _PSS, and _TSS. Drivers can now assume that the packages are correctly sorted. Adds one new file, nsrepair2.c.

2009-11-24ACPICA: Add post-order callback to acpi_walk_namespaceLin Ming
The existing interface only has a pre-order callback. This change adds an additional parameter for a post-order callback which will be more useful for bus scans. ACPICA BZ 779. Also update the external calls to acpi_walk_namespace. http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=779 Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2009-08-28ACPICA: Add support for module-level executable AML codeLin Ming
Add limited support for executable AML code that exists outside of any control method. This type of code has been illegal since ACPI 2.0. The code must exist in an If/Else/While block. All AML tables are supported, including tables that are dynamically loaded.

2009-08-28ACPICA: Add repair for predefined methods that return nested packagesBob Moore
Fixes a problem where a predefined method is defined to return a variable-length Package of sub-packages. If the length is one, the BIOS code occasionally creates a simple single package with no sub-packages. This code attempts to fix the problem by wrapping a new package object around the existing package.

2009-08-28ACPICA: Move predefined repair code to new file, no functional changeBob Moore
New file is nsrepair.c. This is in preparation for additional errror correcting code. Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2009-08-27ACPICA: Fix several acpi_attach_data problemsBob Moore
Handler was never invoked. Now invoked if/when host node is deleted. Data object was not automatically deleted when host node was deleted. Interface to handler had an unused parameter, removed it.
