[PATCH 5/7] platform/x86: wmi: Rework WCxx/WExx ACPI method handling

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

 



The handling of the WExx ACPI methods used for enabling and disabling
WMI events has multiple flaws:

- the ACPI methods are called even when the WMI device has not been
  marked as expensive.

- WExx ACPI methods might be called for inappropriate WMI devices.

- the error code AE_NOT_FOUND is treated as success.

The handling of the WCxx ACPI methods used for enabling and disabling
WMI data blocks is also flawed:

- WMI data blocks are enabled and disabled for every single "query"
  operation. This is racy and inefficient.

Unify the handling of both ACPI methods by introducing a common
helper function for enabling and disabling WMI devices.

Also enable/disable WMI data blocks during probe/remove and shutdown
to match the handling of WMI events.

Legacy GUID-based functions still have to enable/disable the WMI
device manually and thus still suffer from a potential race condition.
Since those functions are deprecated and suffer from various other
flaws this issue is purposefully not fixed.
