2011-07-13ACPI: Fixes device power states array overflowLin Ming
Commit 28c2103 added new state ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD, so the device power states array must be expanded by one also. v2: Use ACPI_D_STATE_COUNT instead of number 5 for the array size.

2011-02-24ACPI: Remove the wakeup.run_wake_count device fieldRafael J. Wysocki
The wakeup.run_wake_count ACPI device field is only used by the PCI runtime PM code to "protect" devices from being prepared for generating wakeup signals more than once in a row. However, it really doesn't provide any protection, because (1) all of the functions it is supposed to protect use their own reference counters effectively ensuring that the device will be set up for generating wakeup signals just once and (2) the PCI runtime PM code uses wakeup.run_wake_count in a racy way, since nothing prevents acpi_dev_run_wake() from being called concurrently from two different threads for the same device. Remove the wakeup.run_wake_count ACPI device field which is unnecessary, confusing and used in a wrong way. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
2011-01-12ACPI: Drop device flag wake_capableRafael J. Wysocki
The wake_capable ACPI device flag is not necessary, because it is only used in scan.c for recording the information that _PRW is present for the given device. That information is only used by acpi_add_single_object() to decide whether or not to call acpi_bus_get_wakeup_device_flags(), so the flag may be dropped if the _PRW check is moved to acpi_bus_get_wakeup_device_flags(). Moreover, acpi_bus_get_wakeup_device_flags() always returns 0, so it really should be void. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2010-10-15ACPI / PM: Fix problems with acpi_pm_device_sleep_state()Rafael J. Wysocki
There is a number of problems with acpi_pm_device_sleep_state() now. First, if _S0W is not defined, it prevents devices from being put into D3 by PCI runtime PM, which shouldn't happen. Second, it shouldn't use adev->wakeup.state.enabled, because if it's set, it only means that either the device is permanently enabled to wake up the system, or that it has been enabled to do that through /proc/acpi/wakeup. Finally, it should be compiled if CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is not set, so that PCI runtime PM works correctly in that case. Fix these problems.

2010-08-24ACPI/PCI: Do not preserve _OSC control bits returned by a query Rafael J. Wysocki
There is the assumption in acpi_pci_osc_control_set() that it is always sufficient to compare the mask of _OSC control bits to be requested with the result of an _OSC query where all of the known control bits have been checked. However, in general, that need not be the case. For example, if an _OSC feature A depends on an _OSC feature B and control of A, B plus another _OSC feature C is requested simultaneously, the BIOS may return A, B, C, while it would only return C if A and C were requested without B. That may result in passing a wrong mask of _OSC control bits to an _OSC control request, in which case the BIOS may only grant control of a subset of the requested features. Moreover, acpi_pci_run_osc() will return error code if that happens and the caller of acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will not know that it's been granted control of some _OSC features. Consequently, the system will generally not work as expected. Apart from this acpi_pci_osc_control_set() always uses the mask of _OSC control bits returned by the very first invocation of acpi_pci_query_osc(), but that is done with the second argument equal to OSC_PCI_SEGMENT_GROUPS_SUPPORT which generally happens to affect the returned _OSC control bits. For these reasons, make acpi_pci_osc_control_set() always check if control of the requested _OSC features will be granted before making the final control request. As a result, the osc_control_qry and osc_queried members of struct acpi_pci_root are not necessary any more, so drop them and remove the remaining code referring to them. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2010-04-04ACPI: pci_root: save downstream bus rangeBjorn Helgaas
Previously, we only saved the root bus number, i.e., the beginning of the downstream bus range. We now support IORESOURCE_BUS resources, so this patch uses that to keep track of both the beginning and the end of the downstream bus range. It's important to know both the beginning and the end for supporting _CBA (see PCI Firmware spec, rev 3.0, sec 4.1.3) and so we know the limits for any possible PCI bus renumbering (we can't renumber downstream buses to be outside the bus number range claimed by the host bridge). It's clear from the spec that the bus range is supposed to be in _CRS, but if we don't find it there, we'll assume [_BBN - 0xFF] or [0 - 0xFF].

2010-02-22PCI / ACPI / PM: Platform support for PCI PME wake-upRafael J. Wysocki
Although the majority of PCI devices can generate PMEs that in principle may be used to wake up devices suspended at run time, platform support is generally necessary to convert PMEs into wake-up events that can be delivered to the kernel. If ACPI is used for this purpose, PME signals generated by a PCI device will trigger the ACPI GPE associated with the device to generate an ACPI wake-up event that we can set up a handler for, provided that everything is configured correctly. Unfortunately, the subset of PCI devices that have GPEs associated with them is quite limited. The devices without dedicated GPEs have to rely on the GPEs associated with other devices (in the majority of cases their upstream bridges and, possibly, the root bridge) to generate ACPI wake-up events in response to PME signals from them. Add ACPI platform support for PCI PME wake-up: o Add a framework making is possible to use ACPI system notify handlers for run-time PM. o Add new PCI platform callback ->run_wake() to struct pci_platform_pm_ops allowing us to enable/disable the platform to generate wake-up events for given device. Implemet this callback for the ACPI platform. o Define ACPI wake-up handlers for PCI devices and PCI root buses and make the PCI-ACPI binding code register wake-up notifiers for all PCI devices present in the ACPI tables. o Add function pci_dev_run_wake() which can be used by PCI drivers to check if given device is capable of generating wake-up events at run time.

2009-09-09ACPI PM: Replace wakeup.prepared with reference counterRafael J. Wysocki
The wakeup.prepared flag is used for marking devices that have the wake-up power already enabled, so that the wake-up power is not enabled twice in a row for the same device. This assumes, however, that device wake-up power will only be enabled once, while the device is being prepared for a system-wide sleep transition, and the second attempt is made by acpi_enable_wakeup_device_prep(). With the upcoming PCI wake-up rework this assumption will not hold any more for PCI bridges and the root bridge whose wake-up power may be enabled as a result of wake-up enable propagation from other devices (eg. add-on devices that are not associated with any GPEs). Thus, there may be many attempts to enable wake-up power on a PCI bridge or the root bridge during a system power state transition and it's better to replace wakeup.prepared with a reference counter.

2009-06-18ACPI: allow drivers to request both device and system notify eventsBjorn Helgaas
System notify events (0x00-0x7f) are common across all device types and should be handled in Linux/ACPI, not in drivers. However, some BIOSes use system notify events in device-specific ways that require the driver to be involved. This patch adds a ACPI_DRIVER_ALL_NOTIFY_EVENTS driver flag. When a driver sets this flag and supplies a .notify method, Linux/ACPI calls the .notify method for ALL notify events on the device, not just the device-specific (0x80-0xff) events.

2009-04-05ACPI: support acpi_device_ops .notify methodsBjorn Helgaas
This patch adds support for ACPI device driver .notify() methods. If such a method is present, Linux/ACPI installs a handler for device notifications (but not for system notifications such as Bus Check, Device Check, etc). When a device notification occurs, Linux/ACPI passes it on to the driver's .notify() method. In most cases, this removes the need for drivers to install their own handlers for device-specific notifications. For fixed hardware devices like some power and sleep buttons, there's no notification value because there's no control method to execute a Notify opcode. When a fixed hardware device generates an event, we handle it the same as a regular device notification, except we send a ACPI_FIXED_HARDWARE_EVENT value. This is outside the normal 0x0-0xff range used by Notify opcodes. Several drivers install their own handlers for system Bus Check and Device Check notifications so they can support hot-plug. This patch doesn't affect that usage. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Alex Chiang <achiang@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

This is a reimplemention of commit 0119509c4fbc9adcef1472817fda295334612976 from Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org> This patch got removed because of a regression: ThinkPads with a Intel graphics card and an Integrated Graphics Device BIOS implementation stopped working. In fact, they only worked because the ACPI device of the discrete, the wrong one, got used (via int10). So ACPI functions were poking on the wrong hardware used which is a sever bug. The next patch provides support for above ThinkPads to be able to switch brightness via the legacy thinkpad_acpi driver and automatically detect when to use it. Original commit message from Matthew Garrett: Vendors often ship machines with a choice of integrated or discrete graphics, and use the same DSDT for both. As a result, the ACPI video module will locate devices that may not exist on this specific platform.
