Hi, Thanks for letting me know. Though IMO the ACER behavior is not ACPI spec compliant, but following it still shouldn't break the others. Because it just requires EC firmware to always flag SCI_EVT when there is an event queued up. I couldn't see a special reason that a correct EC firmware should stop doing this. So I didn't make it a quirk that can only apply for the ACER firmware. I read the whole bug log, for me it looks like that the Samsung firmware need a special EC driver feature which is currently not in the Linux kernel. According to the root cause: Comment 100-103 at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/971061/ Samsung laptops need a SCI_EVT polling mode to be implemented in the kernel. Fortunately, I had this already implemented, you can find it here: https://github.com/zetalog/linux/commit/0fe9406d <- it implements a polling thread in the kernel to poll SCI_EVT. https://github.com/zetalog/linux/commit/28ef0576 <- it adds a quirk mechanism to allow Linux to always poll SCI_EVT (I need to improve it according to your report). It just takes time to make it upstream because there is a cleanup in it to correct the storming prevention craps in the same series: https://github.com/zetalog/linux/commit/fa4024c8 which depends on an ACPICA commit, the commit has been under discussion for more than 3 months: https://github.com/zetalog/linux/commit/e20e0fde Let me try to rebase the series and make the SCI_EVT polling thread independent of the storming prevention cleanups. So that I can make it upstream first to permanently fix the Samsung laptop problems in the kernel. I may ask you for help to test the new feature after it is ready.
