As several module parameters using the same ACPI prefix are defined in the different files(for example: power_nocheck is defined in drivers/acpi/power.c,debug_layer/debug_level are defined in drivers/acpi/debug.c) and there exists another module between them, the warning message will be printed when using the current generic param code. (In the function of param_sysfs_init). In fact when ACPI is selected, the drivers/acpi/power will also be compiled as built-in kernel.So this issue can be fixed by the following approach. workaround it by adjusting the module link order in drivers/acpi/Makefile. In such case the module parameter using the same prefix(ACPI) are put together in the param data section. Of course the better solution is to fix it in generic param code related with sysfs.

For safety reasons, only the PWM OFF (fan at 100%) or maximum closed-loop level (level 7) are preserved. If the fan state was set to anything else, it will not be restored. Also, should the fan be at PWM OFF mode at resume, it will be left at that state (but this is extremely unlikely, no ThinkPad firmware was ever reported to do this). For reference, the known states used for fan control upon resume by the firmware are either "auto" or "level 7" depending on whether the laptop wakes due to normal conditions or a thermal emergency.

In such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device can't be transited to the correct power state. So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking the device power in the course of device power transition. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8049 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11000 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> commit eab4b645769fa2f8703f5a3cb0cc4ac090d347af Author: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Aug 11 14:54:16 2008 +0800 ACPI: Attach the ACPI device to the ACPI handle as early as possible Attach the ACPI device to the ACPI handle as early as possible so that OS can get the corresponding ACPI device by the acpi handle in the course of getting the power/wakeup/performance flags. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8049 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11000 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> commit a51e145f379ae48003129610922595893e8efde0 Author: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Aug 11 14:55:05 2008 +0800 ACPI: Get the device power state in the course of scanning device Get the device power state in the course of scanning device if the device power flag is power_managable. i.e. The device has the _PSx/_PRx object.

Currently, however, CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is also set when CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE is set. This causes some compilation warnings to appear in drivers/acpi/main.c if both CONFIG_SUSPEND and CONFIG_HIBERNATION are unset and CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is set (this was impossible before). To fix this problem, redefine CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP do depend directly on CONFIG_SUSPEND || CONFIG_HIBERNATION, as originally intended, and use it instead of CONFIG_PM_SLEEP in drivers/acpi/main.c, wherever appropriate. Additionally, move the acpi_target_sleep_state definition from under the #ifdef to prevent compilation from failing in some cases. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

However, some boxes have this bit clear, have a valid ACPI_RESET_REG & RESET_VALUE, and ACPI reboot is the only mechanism that works for them after S3. This suggests that other operating systems may not be checking the RESET_REG_SUP bit, and are using other means to decide whether to use the ACPI reboot mechanism or not. Here we stop checking RESET_REG_SUP. Instead, When acpi reboot is requested, only the reset_register is checked.

In such case the EC device can't be initialized correctly, which causes that battery/AC adapter can't work normally. As the EC address space handler is not removed and the memory pointed by its input argument is already free, sometimes the kernel will also be panic when EC internal register is still accessed. But the windows can work well on such broken BIOS. Maybe it will be reasonable that OS ignores the AE_NOT_FOUND error returned by the EC _REG object and continues to initialize EC device on some broken BIOS.

This is against the ACPI specification, which clearly states that "When the platform is waking from an S1, S2 or S3 state, OSPM assumes the hardware is already in the ACPI mode and will not issue an ACPI_ENABLE", but it won't hurt to check the SCI_EN bit and enable ACPI during resume from S3 if this bit is not set. Fortunately, we already have acpi_enable() for that, so use it in the resume code path, before executing _BFS, in analogy with the resume-from-hibernation code path.

The _TTS control method is executed by the OSPM at the beginning of the sleep transition process for S1,S2, S3, S4, and orderly S5 shutdown. OS will invoke _TTS before it has notified any native mode device drivers of the sleep state transition. The target sleeping state value is passed to the _TTS control method. The _TTS control method is also executed by the OSPM at the end of any sleep transition process when the system transitions to S0 from S1, S2, S3, or S4. The _TTS object should be evaluated after it has notified any native mode device drivers of the end of the sleep state transition. The working state value (0) is passed to the _TTS control method. So it is necessary to add the support for _TTS object. The _TTS object will be evaluated if it exists. At the same time a block notifier is added to the reboot notifier list so that the _TTS object will also be evaluated when the system shutdown. lenb: note that as of Sep 2008, I've not yet seen _TTS in any shipping BIOS.

But it is too late after the following the commit is merged. >commit 7752d5cfe3d11ca0bb9c673ec38bd78ba6578f8e > Author: Robert Hancock <hancockr@xxxxxxx> > Date: Fri Feb 15 01:27:20 2008 -0800 >x86: validate against acpi motherboard resources After the above commit is merged, OS will check whether MCFG area is reserved in ACPI motherboard resources by calling the function of acpi_get_devices when there exists MCFG table. In the acpi_get_devices the _STA object will be evaluated to check the status of the ACPI device. On some broken BIOS the MYEC object of EC device is initialized as one, which indicates that EC operation region is already accessible before enabling EC device.So on these broken BIOS the EC operation region will be accessed in course of evaluating the _STA object before enabling EC device, which causes that OS will print the following warning messages: >ACPI Error (evregion-0315): No handler for Region [EC__] (ffff88007f8145e8) [EmbeddedControl] [20080609] >ACPI Error (exfldio-0290): Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no handler [20080321] >ACPI Error (psparse-0530): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.

So it is necessary to enable EC device as early as possible.Maybe it is appropriate to enable it immediately after ACPI full initialization. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11255 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11374 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11660 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Alexey Starikovskiy <astarikovskiy@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> commit 0a918a9432cc30aede10f904253b66ea6ab485ac Author: Thomas Renninger <trenn@xxxxxxx> Date: Sat Oct 11 00:15:04 2008 -0400 Subject: ACPI dock: Use ACPI_EXCEPTION instead of printk(KERN_ERR lenb: stripped patch down to what still applied to new dock.c Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> commit ae3a1b46099aa87f1662621580c985432ca1c9d9 Author: Carlos Corbacho <carlos@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 10 17:33:35 2008 +0100 acer-wmi: Remove private workqueue As per Dmitry Torokhov's suggestion, acer-wmi doesn't need a private workqueue, so remove it.

Further, PM1a/b may have distinct lengths (if using the v2 fields was okay) and may live in distinct address spaces. acpi_tb_convert_fadt() should account for all of these conditions. Apart from these changes I'm puzzled by the fact that, not just for acpi_gbl_xpm1{a,b}_enable, acpi_hw_low_level_{read,write}() get an explicit size passed rather than using the size found in the passed GAS. What happens on a platform that defines PM1{a,b} wider than 16 bits? Of course, acpi_hw_low_level_{read,write}() at present are entirely un-prepared to deal with sizes other than 8, 16, or 32, not to speak of a non-zero bit_offset or access_width...

For now, we will always poll these devices once a second to guarantee we can catch state changes. On newer Acer laptops, it may be possible to rely on WMI events to do this instead, and experimental support for this will be added in a later patch. 3G has been deliberately left off for now, as we still have no way to detect it, (nor, AFAIK, has any Linux user tried the code) and on laptops that don't support 3G, trying to poll for the status will leave the logs full of ACPI tracebacks. The old sysfs interface for wireless and bluetooth will be removed in a later patch. (Thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and Dmitry Torokhov for reviewing this patch).

This was found in battery hotplug, but actually all hotplug can be affected.

It currently is doing that in userspace which results in: - Huge test scripts that could be a one liner in the kernel - A lot of BIOS bugs are already absorbed by the kernel What do we need such a stupid linuxfirmwarekit for? - Vendors: Can test their BIOSes for Linux compatibility. There will be the time when vendors realize that the test utils on Linux are more strict and using them increases the qualitity and stability of their products. - Vendors: Can easily fix up their BIOSes and be more Linux compatible by: dmesg |grep "Firmware Bug" and send the result to their BIOS developer colleagues who should know what the messages are about and how to fix them, without the need of studying kernel code. - Distributions: can do a first automated HW/BIOS checks. This can then be done without the need of asking kernel developers who need to dig down the code and explain the details. Certification can/will just be rejected until dmesg |grep "Firmware Bug" is empty. - Thus this can be used as an instrument to enforce cleaner BIOS code. Currently every stupid Windows ACPI bug is re-implemented in Linux which is a rather unfortunate situation. We already have the power to avoid this in e.g. memory or cpu hot-plug ACPI implementations, because Linux certification is a must for most vendors in the server area. Working towards being able to do that in the laptop area (vendors are starting to look at Linux here also and will use this tool) is the goal. At least provide them a tool to make it as easy for this guys (e.g. not needing to browse kernel code) as possible. - The ordinary Linux user: can go into the next shop, boots the firmwarekit on his most preferred machines. He chooses one without BIOS bugs. Unsupported HW is ok, he likes to try out latest projects which might support them or likes to dig on it on his own, but he hates to workaround broken BIOSes like hell. I double checked with the firmwarekit. There they have: So the mapping generally is (also depending on how likely the BIOS is to blame, this could sometimes be difficult): FW_INFO = INFO FW_WARN = WARN FW_BUG = FAIL For more info about the linuxfirmwarekit and why this is needed can be found here: http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org While severity matches with the firmwarekit, it might be tricky to hide messages from the user. E.g. we recently found out that on HP BIOSes negative temperatures are returned, which seem to indicate that the thermal zone is invalid. We can work around that gracefully by ignoring the thermal zone and we do not want to bother the ordinary user with a frightening message: Firmware Bug: thermal management absolutely broken but want to hide it from the user. But in the linuxfirmwarekit this should be shown as a real show stopper (the temperatures could really be wrong, broken thermal management is one of the worst things that can happen and the BIOS guys of the machine must implement this properly). It is intended to do that (hide it from the user with KERN_INFO msg, but still print it as a BIOS bug) by: printk(KERN_INFO FW_BUG "Negativ temperature values detected. Try to workarounded, BIOS must get fixed\n"); Hope that works out..., no idea how to better hide it as printk is the only way to easily provide this functionality.
