Octavian Purdila 612bd01fc6 ACPI: add support for loading SSDTs via configfs
New tables can be loaded by creating directories under /config/table/
and writing the AML code into the aml table attribute. Various table
attributes will be readable once the table is successfully loaded.

Unloading tables is not supported at the moment, but it can be easily
implemented once ACPI loading functions provide a table handle to be
used for unloading.

Octavian Purdila 475fb4e8b2 efi / ACPI: load SSTDs from EFI variables
This patch allows SSDTs to be loaded from EFI variables. It works by
specifying the EFI variable name containing the SSDT to be loaded. All
variables with the same name (regardless of the vendor GUID) will be
loaded.

Note that we can't use acpi_install_table and we must rely on the
dynamic ACPI table loading and bus re-scanning mechanisms. That is
because I2C/SPI controllers are initialized earlier then the EFI
subsystems and all I2C/SPI ACPI devices are enumerated when the
I2C/SPI controllers are initialized.

Lv Zheng 5d8813271f ACPI / tables: Convert initrd table override to table upgrade mechanism
This patch converts the initrd table override mechanism to the table
upgrade mechanism by restricting its usage to the tables released with
compatibility and more recent revision.

This use case has been encouraged by the ACPI specification:

 1. OEMID:
    An OEM-supplied string that identifies the OEM.

 2. OEM Table ID:
    An OEM-supplied string that the OEM uses to identify the particular data
    table. This field is particularly useful when defining a definition
    block to distinguish definition block functions. OEM assigns each
    dissimilar table a new OEM Table Id.

 3. OEM Revision:
    An OEM-supplied revision number. Larger numbers are assumed to be newer
    revisions.

For OEMs, good practices will ensure consistency when assigning OEMID and
OEM Table ID fields in any table. The intent of these fields is to allow
for a binary control system that support services can use. Because many
support function can be automated, it is useful when a tool can
programatically determine which table release is a compatible and more
recent revision of a prior table on the same OEMID and OEM Table ID.

The facility can now be used by the vendors to upgrade wrong tables for bug
fixing purpose, thus lockdep disabling taint is not suitable for it and it
should be a default 'y' option to implement the spec encouraged use case.

Note that, by implementing table upgrade inside of ACPICA itself, it is
possible to remove acpi_table_initrd_override() and tables can be upgraded
by acpi_install_table() automatically. Though current ACPICA impelentation
hasn't implemented this, this patched changes the table flag setting timing
to allow this to be implemented in ACPICA without changing the code here.

Documentation of initrd override mechanism is upgraded accordingly.

Dustin Byford 8eb5c87a92 i2c: add ACPI support for I2C mux ports
Although I2C mux devices are easily enumerated using ACPI (_HID/_CID or
device property compatible string match), enumerating I2C client devices
connected through an I2C mux needs a little extra work.

This change implements a method for describing an I2C device hierarchy that
includes mux devices by using an ACPI Device() for each mux channel along
with an _ADR to set the channel number for the device.  See
Documentation/acpi/i2c-muxes.txt for a simple example.

To make this work the ismt, i801, and designware pci/platform devs now
share an ACPI companion with their I2C adapter dev similar to how it's done
in OF.  This is done on the assumption that power management functions will
not be called directly on the I2C dev that is sharing the ACPI node.

Mathias Krause 1a147ed75c ACPI: Constify ACPI device IDs in documentation
ACPI device ID arrays normally don't need to be written to as they're
only ever read. The common usage -- embedding pointers to acpi_device_id
arrays in other data structures -- reference them as 'const', e.g. as in
struct acpi_driver / acpi_scan_handler / device_driver. The matchers are
taking const pointers, too. So it's only natural, to propose using const
arrays. Change the documentation accordingly.

Mika Westerberg 0d9a693cc8 gpio / ACPI: Add support for _DSD device properties
With release of ACPI 5.1 and _DSD method we can finally name GPIOs (and
other things as well) returned by _CRS. Previously we were only able to
use integer index to find the corresponding GPIO, which is pretty error
prone if the order changes.

With _DSD we can now query GPIOs using name instead of an integer index,
like the below example shows:

  // Bluetooth device with reset and shutdown GPIOs
  Device (BTH)
  {
      Name (_HID, ...)

      Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate ()
      {
          GpioIo (Exclusive, PullUp, 0, 0, IoRestrictionInputOnly,
                  "\\_SB.GPO0", 0, ResourceConsumer) {15}
          GpioIo (Exclusive, PullUp, 0, 0, IoRestrictionInputOnly,
                  "\\_SB.GPO0", 0, ResourceConsumer) {27, 31}
      })

      Name (_DSD, Package ()
      {
          ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
          Package ()
	  {
              Package () {"reset-gpio", Package() {^BTH, 1, 1, 0 }},
              Package () {"shutdown-gpio", Package() {^BTH, 0, 0, 0 }},
          }
      })
  }

The format of the supported GPIO property is:

  Package () { "name", Package () { ref, index, pin, active_low }}

  ref - The device that has _CRS containing GpioIo()/GpioInt() resources,
        typically this is the device itself (BTH in our case).
  index - Index of the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource in _CRS starting from zero.
  pin - Pin in the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource. Typically this is zero.
  active_low - If 1 the GPIO is marked as active_low.

Since ACPI GpioIo() resource does not have field saying whether it is
active low or high, the "active_low" argument can be used here. Setting
it to 1 marks the GPIO as active low.

In our Bluetooth example the "reset-gpio" refers to the second GpioIo()
resource, second pin in that resource with the GPIO number of 31.

This patch implements necessary support to gpiolib for extracting GPIOs
using _DSD device properties.

Mika Westerberg 6ab3430129 mfd: Add ACPI support
If an MFD device is backed by ACPI namespace, we should allow subdevice
drivers to access their corresponding ACPI companion devices through normal
means (e.g using ACPI_COMPANION()).

This patch adds such support to the MFD core. If the MFD parent device
does not specify any ACPI _HID/_CID for the child device, the child
device will share the parent ACPI companion device. Otherwise the child
device will be assigned with the corresponding ACPI companion, if found
in the namespace below the parent.

Linus Torvalds 09da8dfa98 ACPI and power management updates for 3.14-rc1
- ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for every
    device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace scans regardless
    of the current status of that device.  In accordance with this, ACPI hotplug
    operations will not delete those objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables
    go away.
 
  - On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects allowing
    user space to check device status by triggering the execution of _STA for
    its ACPI object.  From Srinivas Pandruvada.
 
  - ACPI core hotplug changes reducing code duplication, integrating the
    PCI root hotplug with the core and reworking container hotplug.
 
  - ACPI core simplifications making it use ACPI_COMPANION() in the code
    "glueing" ACPI device objects to "physical" devices.
 
  - ACPICA update to upstream version 20131218.  This adds support for the
    DBG2 and PCCT tables to ACPICA, fixes some bugs and improves debug
    facilities.  From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng and Betty Dall.
 
  - Init code change to carry out the early ACPI initialization earlier.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
  this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
  core, PNP and cpuidle updates.  They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
  usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.

  The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
  acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
  the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
  sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
  status via _STA.

  Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
  delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
  namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare.  Also ACPI
  container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
  will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
  acpi-cpufreq driver.

  Specifics:

   - ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
     every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
     scans regardless of the current status of that device.  In
     accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those

Linus Torvalds 8e50966072 GPIO tree bulk changes for v3.14
A big set this merge window, as we have much going on in
 this subsystem. Major changes this time:
 
 - Some core improvements and cleanups to the new GPIO
   descriptor API. This seems to be working now so we can
   start the exodus to this API, moving gradually away from
   the global GPIO numberspace.
 
 - Incremental improvements to the ACPI GPIO core, and move
   the few GPIO ACPI clients we have to the GPIO descriptor
   API right *now* before we go any further. We actually
   managed to contain this *before* we started to litter
   the kernel with yet another hackish global numberspace for
   the ACPI GPIOs, which is a big win.
 
 - The RFkill GPIO driver and all platforms using it have
   been migrated to use the GPIO descriptors rather than
   fixed number assignments. Tegra machine has been migrated
   as part of this.
 
 - New drivers for MOXA ART, Xtensa GPIO32 and SMSC SCH311x.
   Those should be really good examples of how I expect a
   nice GPIO driver to look these days.
 
 - Do away with custom GPIO implementations on a major
   part of the ARM machines: ks8695, lpc32xx, mv78xx0.
   Make a first step towards the same in the horribly
   convoluted Samsung S3C include forest. We expect to
   continue to clean this up as we move forward.
 
 - Flag GPIO lines used for IRQ on adnp, bcm-kona, em,
   intel-mid and lynxpoint.
   This makes the GPIOlib core aware that a certain GPIO line
   is used for IRQs and can then enforce some semantics such
   as disallowing a GPIO line marked as in use for IRQ to be
   switched to output mode.
 
 - Drop all use of irq_set_chip_and_handler_name().
   The name provided in these cases were just unhelpful
   tags like "mux" or "demux".
 
 - Extend the MCP23s08 driver to handle interrupts.
 
 - Minor incremental improvements for rcar, lynxpoint, em
   74x164 and msm drivers.
 
 - Some non-urgent bug fixes here and there, duplicate
   #includes and that usual kind of cleanups.

Luck, Tony 3482fb5e0c ACPI, APEI, EINJ: Changes to the ACPI/APEI/EINJ debugfs interface
When I added support for ACPI5 I made the assumption that
injected processor errors would just need to know the APICID,
memory errors just the address and mask, and PCIe errors just the
segment/bus/device/function. So I had the code check the type of injection
and multiplex the "param1" value appropriately.

This was not a good assumption :-(

There are injection scenarios where we need to specify more than one of
these items. E.g. injecting a cache error we need to specify an APICID
of the cpu that owns the cache, and also an address (so that we can trip
the error by accessing the address).

Add a "flags" file to give the user direct access to specify which items
are valid in the ACPI SET_ERROR_TYPE_WITH_ADDRESS structure. Also add
new files param3 and param4 to hold all these values.

For backwards compatability with old injection scripts we maintain the
old behaviour if flags remains set at zero (or is reset to 0).

Rafael J. Wysocki 202317a573 ACPI / scan: Add acpi_device objects for all device nodes in the namespace
Modify the ACPI namespace scanning code to register a struct
acpi_device object for every namespace node representing a device,
processor and so on, even if the device represented by that namespace
node is reported to be not present and not functional by _STA.

There are multiple reasons to do that.  First of all, it avoids
quite a lot of overhead when struct acpi_device objects are
deleted every time acpi_bus_trim() is run and then added again
by a subsequent acpi_bus_scan() for the same scope, although the
namespace objects they correspond to stay in memory all the time
(which always is the case on a vast majority of systems).

Second, it will allow user space to see that there are namespace
nodes representing devices that are not present at the moment and may
be added to the system.  It will also allow user space to evaluate
_SUN for those nodes to check what physical slots the "missing"
devices may be put into and it will make sense to add a sysfs
attribute for _STA evaluation after this change (that will be
useful for thermal management on some systems).

Next, it will help to consolidate the ACPI hotplug handling among
subsystems by making it possible to store hotplug-related information
in struct acpi_device objects in a standard common way.

Finally, it will help to avoid a race condition related to the
deletion of ACPI namespace nodes.  Namely, namespace nodes may be
deleted as a result of a table unload triggered by _EJ0 or _DCK.
If a hotplug notification for one of those nodes is triggered
right before the deletion and it executes a hotplug callback
via acpi_hotplug_execute(), the ACPI handle passed to that
callback may be stale when the callback actually runs.  One way
to work around that is to always pass struct acpi_device pointers
to hotplug callbacks after doing a get_device() on the objects in
question which eliminates the use-after-free possibility (the ACPI
handles in those objects are invalidated by acpi_scan_drop_device(),
so they will trigger ACPICA errors on attempts to use them).

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
  the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
  remains the most active patch submitter.

  To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
  device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
  the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code.  Next are the
  freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
  tasks a bit less heavy weight.

  We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
  issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
  and a bunch of cleanups all over.

  Highlights:

   - Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.

     It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
     gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely.  For example,
     if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
     for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
     desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
     rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
     crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
     hot-removal.  Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
     alternative and it had to be addressed.

     However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
     it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
     processor driver.  It's been split into two parts, a resident one
     handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
     playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
     device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
     processors).  That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
     patient who's riding a bike.

     So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
     regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
     (a month ago), nobody has complained.

     As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
     ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
     code.

   - Lighter weight freezing of tasks.

     These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
     targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
     operation.  They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
     during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
     simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
     to call refrigerator().  The time needed for the freezer to decide
     to report a failure is reduced too.

     Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
     trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
     generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).

   - cpufreq updates

     First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
     introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
     attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume.  The
     fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
     has identified the root cause.

     Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
     acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
     related_cpus.  From Lan Tianyu.

     Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
     CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
     up some code.  The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
     from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
     Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.

   - ACPICA update

     A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.

     During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
     sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
     HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
     to use them without checking that bit.  That caused suspend/resume
     regressions to happen on some systems.  Fix from Lv Zheng causes
     those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.

     Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
     are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
     Zhang Rui.

   - cpuidle updates

     New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.

     Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
     kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
     Lezcano.

   - ACPI power management updates

     Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
     Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
     cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
     routine.

   - ACPI documentation updates

     Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
     Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
     uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
     updated by Hanjun Guo.

   - Assorted ACPI updates

     We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
     reverting commit 9f29ab11dd ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
     against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
     the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
     the core.

     A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
     introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
     fixed on some systems.

     A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
     Mika Westerberg.

     The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
     situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
     returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value.  From
     Jeff Wu.

     Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
     the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
     driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
     Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.

     The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
     put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.

     Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
     Kani.

   - Assorted power management updates

     The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
     values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
     rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
     overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
     necessary any more after that modification).

     The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
     the "runtime idle" behavior change).

     New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
     (<keun-o.park@windriver.com>).

     PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.

     Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
     Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.

   - devfreq updates

     New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan.

     Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham,
     Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun.

   - OMAP power management updates

Andy Shevchenko 1b2e98bc1e dma: acpi-dma: introduce ACPI DMA helpers
There is a new generic API to get a DMA channel for a slave device (commit
9a6cecc8 "dmaengine: add helper function to request a slave DMA channel"). In
similar fashion to the DT case (commit aa3da644 "of: Add generic device tree
DMA helpers") we introduce helpers to the DMAC drivers which are enumerated by
ACPI.

The proposed extension provides the following API calls:
	acpi_dma_controller_register(), devm_acpi_dma_controller_register()
	acpi_dma_controller_free(), devm_acpi_dma_controller_free()
	acpi_dma_simple_xlate()
	acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index()
	acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_name()

The first two should be used, for example, at probe() and remove() of the
corresponding DMAC driver. At the register stage the DMAC driver supplies a
custom xlate() function to translate a struct dma_spec into struct dma_chan.

Accordingly to the ACPI Fixed DMA resource specification the only two pieces of
information the slave device has are the channel id and the request line (slave
id). Those two are represented by struct dma_spec. The
acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index() provides access to the specifix FixedDMA
resource by its index. Whereas dma_request_slave_channel() takes a string
parameter to identify the DMA resources required by the slave device. To make a
slave device driver work with both DeviceTree and ACPI enumeration a simple
convention is established: "tx" corresponds to the index 0 and "rx" to the
index 1. In case of robust configuration the slave device driver unfortunately
needs to call acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index() directly.

Additionally the patch provides "managed" version of the register/free pair
i.e. devm_acpi_dma_controller_register() and devm_acpi_dma_controller_free().
Usually, the driver uses only devm_acpi_dma_controller_register().

Instead of open-coding ACPI GPIO resource lookup in each driver, we provide
a helper function analogous to Device Tree version that allows drivers to

the ACPI GPIO number to the corresponding Linux GPIO number and returns
that.

Rafael J. Wysocki ca589f9469 ACPI / scan: Introduce struct acpi_scan_handler
Introduce struct acpi_scan_handler for representing objects that
will do configuration tasks depending on ACPI device nodes'
hardware IDs (HIDs).

Currently, those tasks are done either directly by the ACPI namespace
scanning code or by ACPI device drivers designed specifically for
this purpose.  None of the above is desirable, however, because
doing that directly in the namespace scanning code makes that code
overly complicated and difficult to follow and doing that in
"special" device drivers leads to a great deal of confusion about
their role and to confusing interactions with the driver core (for
example, sysfs directories are created for those drivers, but they
are completely unnecessary and only increase the kernel's memory
footprint in vain).

  On a grander scope, it formalizes using the initramfs protocol for

  they are fed first in the initramfs blob (lots of bootloaders can
  concatenate this at boot time, others can use a single file) in an

  The ACPI maintainers requested that this patchset be fed via the x86
