[PATCH] ACPI / EC: Fix a boot EC regresion by restoring boot EC support for the DSDT EC

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

 



According to the Windows probing result, during the table loading, ECDT EC
should be used. And the ECDT EC is also effective during the period the
namespace objects are initialized (we can see a separate process executing
_STA/_INI on Windows before executing other device specific control
methods). During the device enumration, the EC device described in DSDT
should be used. But there are differences between Linux and Windows around
the device probing order. Thus in Linux, we should enable early EC accesses
in order not to trigger issues by the device enumeration order difference.

This patch thus converts acpi_boot_ec_enable() into acpi_ec_dsdt_probe() to
fix the gap. This also fixes a regression reported by the real Linux users
after we switched table loading/ECDT support to be ACPI spec 2.0 compliant.
