Subject: ACPI : Delete the strick check in power transistion From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> On some laptops the Fan device is turned on/off by controlling the corresponding power resource. For example: If the power resource defined in _PR0 object is turned off, it indicates that the FAN device is in off state(the ACPI state is in D3 state). Maybe the device is already in D3 state and expected to be transited to D3 state. As there is no _PR3 object, the power transition can't be finished and it will be switched to the Unknow state. Maybe it is more reasonable that the strick check in power transistion is deleted. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9485 Signed-off-by: yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx --- drivers/acpi/power.c | 5 ----- 1 file changed, 5 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/drivers/acpi/power.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/drivers/acpi/power.c +++ linux-2.6/drivers/acpi/power.c @@ -517,11 +517,6 @@ int acpi_power_transition(struct acpi_de cl = &device->power.states[device->power.state].resources; tl = &device->power.states[state].resources; - if (!cl->count && !tl->count) { - result = -ENODEV; - goto end; - } - /* TBD: Resources must be ordered. */ /* -- 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
