[PATCHv2 0/3] acpi: fix up EJ0 in DSDT

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a second iteration of the patch.  The patch has been
significantly reworked to address (offline) comments by Gleb.

I think the infrastructure created is generic enough
to be generally useful beyond the specific bug
that I would like to fix. Specifically it
will be able to find S3 Name to patch that,
or process compiled CPU SSDT to avoid the need for
hardcoded offsets.

Please comment.

Main changes:
	- tools rewritten in python
	- Original ASL retains _EJ0 methods, BIOS patches that to EJ0_
	- generic ACP_EXTRACT infrastructure that can match Method
          and Name Operators
	- instead of matching specific method name, insert tags
	  in original DSL source and match that to AML

Here's a bug: guest thinks it can eject VGA device and ISA bridge.

This is wrong because slots 1 and 2 are marked as not hotpluggable
in qemu.

The reason is that our acpi tables declare both _RMV with value 0,
and _EJ0 method for these slots. What happens in this case
is undocumented by ACPI spec, so linux ignores _RMV,
and windows seems to ignore _EJ0.

The correct way to suppress hotplug is not to have _EJ0,
so this is what this patch does: it probes PIIX and
modifies DSDT to match.

With these patches applied, we get:

[root@dhcp74-172 ~]# ls /sys/bus/pci/slots/1/
address
[root@dhcp74-172 ~]# ls /sys/bus/pci/slots/2/
address
