All I and Kexin Zhang wrote some ACPI function test suite, please download it from http://acpi.sourceforge.net/validation/testcases/acpi-test-0.1.tar.gz (which also includes the ABAT0.2 I published before) The main function tested by these cases includes: C-state Validate the C-state under AC-adpater or battery T-state validate whether the CPU will become cooler while increasing the CPU throttling under the specific workload. Every processor needs to be tested. Thermal Zone Adjust the system cooling mode to different mode: passive, active, hot or critical, In each supported thermal zone, set a trip points and give the CPUs in the thermal zone a workload to make the temperature passes the trip points, verify if the corresponding actions will be taken by the system. Battery Validate the battery event, alarm and actions when arriving critical battery capacity Button Validate the function of power button, sleep botton and lid button Generic Hotkey Test hotkey function. About the detail test case assertion, please look at the function/TestSpec.txt in the test suite About how to run, please look at the function/README in the test suite. Followings are test results got by these test cases: Hardware Platform: Sony VGN-FE18C Kernel: 2.6.16 Test Results: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/validation/testresults/acpitest0.1_sony_ia32 _2.6.16_testresults Hardware Platform: IBM T43P Kernel: 2.6.16-RC6 Test Results: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/validation/testresults/acpitest0.1_t43p_ia32 _2.6.16-rc6_testresults Welcome to download and test, I will appreciate any comments or test results sharing Thanks - Ling - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
