[PATCH 2/2] ACPI/EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued before completing the previous QR_EC.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There is platform refusing to respond QR_EC when SCI_EVT isn't set.
A known such platform is Acer Aspire V5-573G.

By disallowing QR_EC issuing without completing the previous one, we are
able to reduce the possibilities to trigger issues on such platforms.

Note that this fix can only reduce the occurrence rate of this issue, but
this issue may still occur when such a platform doesn't clear SCI_EVT
before or immediately after completing the previous QR_EC transaction. This
patch cannot fix CLEAR_ON_RESUME quirk which also relies on the assumption
that the platforms are able to respond even when SCI_EVT isn't set.

But this patch is still useful as it can help to reduce the number of
scheduled QR_EC work items.
