* This version updates the change log in patch 5/6 per the email
discussion below.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=133939897728489&w=2
This patchset has been accepted in -next, and there is no code
change in this version.
This patchset supports ACPI OSPM Status Indication (_OST) method for
ACPI CPU/memory/container hotplug operations and sysfs eject. After
an ACPI hotplug operation has completed, OSPM calls _OST to indicate
the result of the operation to the platform. If a platform does not
support _OST, this patchset has no effect on the platform.
This _OST support is enabled when all relevant ACPI hotplug operations,
such as CPU, memory and container hotplug, are enabled. This assures
consistent behavior among the hotplug operations with regarding the
_OST support.
Some platforms may require the OS to support _OST in order to support
ACPI hotplug operations. For example, if a platform has the management
console where user can request a hotplug operation from, this _OST
support would be required for the management console to show the result
of the hotplug request to user.
The _OST definition can be found in section 6.3.5 of ACPI 5.0 spec.
The HPPF spec below also describes hotplug flows with _OST.
DIG64 Hot-Plug & Partitioning Flow (HPPF) Specification R1.0
http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_HPPF_R1_0.pdf
The changes have been tested with simulated _OST methods.
