We are still lacking here. To quote Al, "First version for AMD Seattle
has been posted to the public linaro-acpi mailing list for initial
review". Sorry but I don't follow linaro-acpi list. I don't know what's
in those patches and I can't tell which subsystems they touch, whether
maintainers agree with them. So in conclusion, I'm not confident the
arm64 hardware ACPI story looks that great yet.
This is solely my fault -- too much time on processes, email, and
documentation, not enough time on the Seattle patches. And not
enough Seattles to go around for someone else to pick up the slack.
I am aware not everyone is subscribed to linaro-acpi; we use that
for internal review before posting more broadly, which is the only
reason I sent them there.
I'm in the middle of updating them as I have time, based on really
good feedback from Arnd; few of them are terribly new (the very first
posting was [0]) -- it's mostly a matter of rebasing, integrating
updates from AMD and others, and reacting to the comments. One can
also see what these patches will probably look like via one of the
Fedora kernel trees [1].
Do you have some simple branch against mainline with just the ACPI core
patches and what's required for AMD Seattle? I have no plans to dig
through the Fedora kernels.
Nor was I expecting you to; I only added it as additional reference
material, should one be interested.
The version of patches sent to the linaro-acpi list are from the Linaro
acpi.git tree, and are precisely what you describe; those are the ones
being updated.
Catalin,
For Seattle, you could use the https://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/acpi.git
acpi-5.1-v7, and it would also need the AHCI ACPI patch here
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/5/662).
Thanks,
Suravee
