It generally is unsafe to call acpi_pci_osc_control_set() without
checking what _OSC bits the BIOS is willing to grant control of,
because control of some _OSC bits may be granted even if
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() returns AE_SUPPORT.  Therefore make
acpi_get_hp_hw_control_from_firmware() use
acpi_pci_osc_control_query() to check if the BIOS will grant
OSC_SHPC_NATIVE_HP_CONTROL before calling acpi_pci_osc_control_set().

This breaks fallback mechanism for OSHP, doesn't it?

Hmm, well.  Can you please elaborate a bit?

I guess you mean that the last two statements should be executed if
acpi_pci_osc_control_query() returns error code, is that correct?


On legacy platform, firmware provides OSHP method instead of _OSC method
to grant native hot-plug control to OS. For this reason, current code
evaluates OSHP method if _OSC evaluation failed with error code other
than AE_SUPPORT (ex. "AE_NOT_FOUND" would be returned on the legacy
platform that provides OSHP instead of _OSC).

So I think Hidetoshi meant that

+		status = acpi_pci_osc_control_query(handle,&flags);
+		if (ACPI_FAILURE(status)
+		    || !(flags&  OSC_SHPC_NATIVE_HP_CONTROL))
+			goto no_control;

should be

	status = acpi_pci_osc_control_query(handle,&flags);
	if (status == AE_SUPPORT)
		goto no_control;

Thanks,
