It is reported that the following commit breaks Samsung hardware: Commit: 558e4736f2e1b0e6323adf7a5e4df77ed6cfc1a4. Subject: ACPI / EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued before completing previous QR_EC Which means the Samsung behavior conflicts with the Acer behavior. 1. Samsung may behave like: [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set write QR_EC read event [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear Without the above commit, Samsung can work: [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set write QR_EC CAN prepare next QR_EC as SCI_EVT=1 read event [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear write QR_EC read event [ -event 2 ] SCI_EVT clear With the above commit, Samsung cannot work: [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set write QR_EC read event [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear CANNOT prepare next QR_EC as SCI_EVT=0 2. Acer may behave like: [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set [ +event 2 ] write QR_EC read event [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set Without the above commit, Acer cannot work when there is only 1 event: [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set write QR_EC can prepared next QR_EC as SCI_EVT=1 read event [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear CANNOT write QR_EC as SCI_EVT=0 With the above commit, Acer can work: [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set [ +event 2 ] write QR_EC read event [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT set can prepare next QR_EC because SCI_EVT=0 CAN write QR_EC as SCI_EVT=1 Since Acer can also work with only the following commit applied: Commit: 3afcf2ece453e1a8c2c6de19cdf06da3772a1b08 Subject: ACPI / EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued when SCI_EVT isn't set We can revert the above commit. This reverts commit 558e4736f2e1b0e6323adf7a5e4df77ed6cfc1a4.
