5df7e6cb42 ACPICA: Remove obsolete ACPI_INTEGER (acpi_integer) type
This type was introduced as the code was migrated from ACPI 1.0
(with 32-bit AML integers) to ACPI 2.0 (with 64-bit integers). It
is now obsolete and this change removes it from the ACPICA code
base, replaced by u64.  The original typedef has been retained
for now for compatibility with existing device driver code.

a6d72c189f ACPI: allow C3 > 1000usec
Do for C3 what the previous patch did for C2.

The C2 patch was in response to a highly visible
and multiply reported C-state/turbo failure,
while this change has no bug report in-hand.

This will enable C3 in Linux on systems where BIOS
overstates C3 latency in _CST.  It will also enable
future systems which may actually have C3 > 1000usec.

Linux has always ignored ACPI BIOS C3 with exit latency > 1000 usec,
and the ACPI spec is clear that is correct FADT-supplied C3.

However, the ACPI spec explicitly states that _CST-supplied C-states
have no latency limits.

So move the 1000usec C3 test out of the code shared
by FADT and _CST code-paths, and into the FADT-specific path.

5d76b6f6c1 ACPI: enable C2 and Turbo-mode on Nehalem notebooks on A/C
Linux has always ignored ACPI BIOS C2 with exit latency > 100 usec,
and the ACPI spec is clear that is correct FADT-supplied C2.

However, the ACPI spec explicitly states that _CST-supplied C-states
have no latency limits.

So move the 100usec C2 test out of the code shared
by FADT and _CST code-paths, and into the FADT-specific path.

This bug has not been visible until Nehalem, which advertises
a CPU-C2 worst case exit latency on servers of 205usec.
That (incorrect) figure is being used by BIOS writers
on mobile Nehalem systems for the AC configuration.
Thus, Linux ignores C2 leaving just C1, which is
saves less power, and also impacts performance
by preventing the use of turbo mode.

2205cbe8ec ACPI: processor: restrict early _PDC to opt-in platforms
Commit 78f1699 (ACPI: processor: call _PDC early) blindly walks
the namespace and calls _PDC on every processor object it finds.

This change may cause issues on platforms that declare dummy
values for SSDTs on non-present processors (disabled in MADT).
When we call _PDC and dynamically attempt to execute the AML
Load() op on these dummy SSDTs, there's no telling what might
happen.

Rather than finding every platform that has bogus SSDTs, restrict
early _PDC calls to platforms that are known to need early
evaluation of _PDC.

This is a minimal, temporary fix (given the context of the
current release cycle). A real solution of checking the MADT for
non-present processors will be written for the next merge window.

7a0b73a49a ACPI: Fix section mismatch error for acpi_early_processor_set_pdc()
Alex Chiang introduced acpi_early_processor_set_pdc() in commit:
 ACPI: processor: call _PDC early
 78f1699659

But this results in a section mismatch:

WARNING: drivers/acpi/acpi.o(.text+0xa9c1): Section mismatch in reference from the
function acpi_early_processor_set_pdc() to the variable .cpuinit.data:processor_idle_dmi_table
The function acpi_early_processor_set_pdc() references
the variable __cpuinitdata processor_idle_dmi_table.
This is often because acpi_early_processor_set_pdc lacks a __cpuinitdata
annotation or the annotation of processor_idle_dmi_table is wrong.

The only caller of acpi_early_processor_set_pdc() is acpi_bus_init() which
is an "__init" function. So the correct fix here is to mark
acpi_early_processor_set_pdc() "__init" too.

0f1d683fb3 [CPUFREQ] Processor Clocking Control interface driver
Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the BIOS and OSPM.
Based on the server workload, OSPM can request what frequency it expects
from a logical CPU, and the BIOS will achieve that frequency transparently.

This patch introduces driver support for PCC. OSPM uses the PCC driver to
communicate with the BIOS via the PCC interface.

There is a Documentation file that provides a link to the PCC
Specification, and also provides a summary of the PCC interface.

Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. However,
any platform whose BIOS implements the PCC Specification, can utilize this
driver.

V2 --> V1 changes (based on Dominik's suggestions):
- Removed the dependency on CPU_FREQ_TABLE
- "cpufreq_stats" will no longer PANIC. Actually, it will not load anymore
because it is not applicable.
- Removed the sanity check for target frequency in the ->target routine.

NOTE: A patch to sanitize the target frequency requested by "ondemand" is
needed to ensure that the target freq < policy->min.

Can this driver be queued up for the 2.6.33 tree?

c504f8cb68 ACPI video: Prune dupe video devices, unless "video.allow_duplicates"
Some buggy BIOS exports multiple ACPI video bus devices for the same

This messes up the ACPI video backlight control.

With this patch applied, only the FIRST ACPI video bus device
under a PCI device node is bind to ACPI video driver by default.

If the first ACPI video bus device doesn't work well, we can use
video.allow_duplicates=1 to go back to the old behavior.

0c99c5288e ACPI: Disable explicit power state retrieval on fans
If the ACPI power state can be got both directly and indirectly,
we prefer to get it indirectly.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531916 describes a
system with a _PSC method for the fan that always returns "on".
There's no benefit in us always requesting the state of the fan
when performing transitions - we want to do everything we can
to ensure that the fan turns on when it should do, not risk
hardware damage by believing the hardware when it tells us the
fan is already on. Given that the Leading Other OS(tm) works fine
on this machine, it seems likely that it behaves in much this way.

407cd87c54 ACPI: processor: unify arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc
The x86 and ia64 implementations of arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc()
are almost exactly the same. The only difference is in what bits
they set in obj_list buffer.

Combine the boilerplate memory management code, and leave the
arch-specific bit twiddling in separate implementations.

arch dependent helper function that tells us if we should attempt to

78f1699659 ACPI: processor: call _PDC early
We discovered that at least one machine (HP Envy), methods in the DSDT
attempt to call external methods defined in a dynamically loaded SSDT.

Unfortunately, the DSDT methods we are trying to call are part of the
EC initialization, which happens very early, and the the dynamic SSDT
is only loaded when a processor _PDC method runs much later.

This results in namespace lookup errors for the (as of yet) undefined
methods.

Since Windows doesn't have any issues with this machine, we take it
as a hint that they must be evaluating _PDC much earlier than we are.

Thus, the proper thing for Linux to do should be to match the Windows
implementation more closely.

Provide a mechanism to call _PDC before we enable the EC. Doing so loads
the dynamic tables, and allows the EC to be enabled correctly.

The ACPI processor driver will still evaluate _PDC in its .add() method
to cover the hotplug case.

                    {
                        If (LGreaterEqual (OSFG, OSVT))

                                Subtract (0x0F, Local0, LBTN)
                                ^^^SBRG.EC0.STBR ()
                                ...
                            }
                            Else
                            {
                                DBGR (0x0B, Zero, Zero, Arg0)
                                Store (Arg0, LBTN)
                                ^^^SBRG.EC0.STBR ()
                                ...

                        }
                    }
LBTN is used to store the index of the brightness level in the _BCL.
GCBL is a method that convert the percentage value to the index value.
If _OSI(Windows 2009) is not disabled, LBTN is stored a percentage
value which is surely beyond the end of _BCL package.

The problem is that the lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() has 2 versions:
One is real code that modified in the above commit, and the other is NOP
code that used when !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3:

  static void lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast(struct acpi_processor *pr) { }

So I got warning because of !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3.

We really want to do nothing here on !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3, so
modify lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() of real version to use
smp_call_function_single() in it.

583061c59f ACPICA: Fix possible memory leak for module-level code execution
An object can be leaked for each block of executed module-level
code if the interpreter slack mode is enabled. The change deletes
any implicitly returned object in this case.

a1a541d86f ACPI: support customizing ACPI control methods at runtime
Introduce a new debugfs I/F (/sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method) for ACPI,
which can be used to customize the ACPI control methods at runtime.

We can use this to debug the AML code level bugs instead of overriding the
whole DSDT table, without rebuilding/rebooting kernel any more.

Detailed description about how to use this debugfs I/F is stated in
Documentation/acpi/method-customizing.txt
