From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> If a system matches in this DMI table, Linux will disable MWAIT support for idle. ie. "idle=nomwait" is automatically invoked and C1_FFH and C2C3_FFH access mode are disabled. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10807 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/acpi/processor_core.c | 28 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 28 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c b/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c index eb99e18..b460bab 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/processor_core.c @@ -120,6 +120,29 @@ static const struct file_operations acpi_processor_info_fops = { struct acpi_processor *processors[NR_CPUS]; struct acpi_processor_errata errata __read_mostly; +static int set_no_mwait(const struct dmi_system_id *id) +{ + printk(KERN_NOTICE PREFIX "%s detected - " + "disable mwait for CPU C-stetes\n", id->ident); + idle_nomwait = 1; + return 0; +} + +static struct dmi_system_id __cpuinitdata processor_idle_dmi_table[] = { + { + set_no_mwait, "IFL91 board", { + DMI_MATCH(DMI_BIOS_VENDOR, "COMPAL"), + DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "ZEPTO"), + DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION, "3215W"), + DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "IFL91") }, NULL}, + { + set_no_mwait, "Extensa 5220", { + DMI_MATCH(DMI_BIOS_VENDOR, "Phoenix Technologies LTD"), + DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "ACER"), + DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION, "0100"), + DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "Columbia") }, NULL}, + {}, +}; /* -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Errata Handling @@ -1096,6 +1119,11 @@ static int __init acpi_processor_init(void) return -ENOMEM; acpi_processor_dir->owner = THIS_MODULE; + /* + * Check whether the system is DMI table.
