[PATCH 7/8] ACPI: platform_profile: Add support for multiple handlers

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

 



Multiple drivers may attempt to register platform profile handlers,
but only one may be registered and the behavior is non-deterministic
for which one wins.  It's mostly controlled by probing order.

This can be problematic if one driver changes CPU settings and another
driver notifies the EC for changing fan curves.

Modify the ACPI platform profile handler to let multiple drivers
register platform profile handlers and abstract this detail from userspace.
