This patch optimizes ACPI MMIO remappings by keeping track of the
remappings on a PAGE_SIZE granularity.
When an ioremap() occurs, the underlying infrastructure works on a 'page'
based granularity. As such, an ioremap() request for 1 byte for example,
will end up mapping in an entire (PAGE_SIZE) page. Huang Ying took
advantage of this in commit 15651291a2 by
checking if subsequent ioremap() requests reside within any of the list's
existing remappings still in place, and if so, incrementing a reference
count on the existing mapping as opposed to performing another ioremap().

During ACPI initialization, pre-map fixed hardware registers that are
accessed during ACPI's 'system event' related IRQ handing.
ACPI's 'system event' handing accesses specific fixed hardware
registers; namely PM1a event, PM1b event, GPE0, and GPE1 register
blocks which are declared within the FADT. If these registers are
backed by MMIO, as opposed to I/O port space, accessing them within
interrupt context will cause a panic as acpi_os_read_memory()
depends on ioremap() in such cases - BZ 18012.
By utilizing the functionality provided in the previous two patches -
ACPI: Maintain a list of ACPI memory mapped I/O remappings, and, ACPI:
Add interfaces for ioremapping/iounmapping ACPI registers - accesses
to ACPI MMIO areas will now be safe from within interrupt contexts (IRQ
and/or NMI) provided the area was pre-mapped. This solves BZ 18012.

For memory mapped I/O (MMIO) remappings, add a list to maintain the
remappings and augment the corresponding mapping and unmapping interface
routines (acpi_os_map_memory() and acpi_os_unmap_memory()) to
dynamically add to, and delete from, the list.
The current ACPI I/O accessing methods - acpi_read() and acpi_write() -
end up calling ioremap() when accessing MMIO. This prevents use of these
methods within interrupt context (IRQ and/or NMI), since ioremap() may
block to allocate memory. Maintaining a list of MMIO remappings enables
accesses to such areas from within interrupt context provided they have
been pre-mapped.

The function acpi_battery_get_property() is called by the
power supply framework's function power_supply_show_property()
implementing the sysfs interface for power supply devices as the
ACPI battery driver's ->get_property() callback. Thus it is supposed
to return error code if the value of the given property is unknown.
Unfortunately, however, it returns 0 in those cases and puts a
wrong (negative) value into the intval field of the
union power_supply_propval object provided by
power_supply_show_property(). In consequence, wrong negative
values are read by user space from the battery's sysfs files.
Fix this by making acpi_battery_get_property() return -ENODEV
for properties with unknown values (-ENODEV is returned, because
power_supply_uevent() returns with error for any other error code
returned by power_supply_show_property()).

The reference counting of ACPI power resources is currently broken
for a few reasons. First, instead of using a simple reference
counter per power resource it uses a list of objects representing
refereces to the given power resource from devices. This leads to
the second breakage, because it prevents power resources from
being referenced more than once by one device, which is necessary
if the device is configured to signal wakeup. Namely, when putting
the device into a low power state we first call
acpi_enable_wakeup_device_power() that should reference count power
resources needed for signaling wakeup and then we call
acpi_power_transition() to power off the device. The latter call
drops references to the device's power resources, possibly including
the ones added by acpi_enable_wakeup_device_power(), so the device
can't signal wakeup as a result. Apart from this, the locking
in acpi_power_on() and acpi_power_off_device() doesn't prevent
all possible races from happening, which may be problematic for
runtime PM and asynchronous suspend and resume.
Fix the problem by using a counter for power resources reference
counting and putting the evaluation of ACPI _ON and _OFF methods
under the power resource mutex.

According to the ACPI spec, some kinds of primary battery can
report percentage battery remaining capacity directly to OS.
In this case, it reports the LastFullChargedCapacity == 100,
BatteryPresentRate = 0xFFFFFFFF, and BatteryRemaingCapacity a
percentage value, which actually means RemainingBatteryPercentage.
Now we found some battery follows this rule even if it's a rechargeable.

Here and then there show up machines which need higher timeout values.
Finding this on affected machines can be cumbersome, because
ACPI_EC_DELAY is a compile option -> make it configurable via boot param.
This can even be provided writable at runtime via:
/sys/modules/acpi/parameters/ec_delay
Known machines where this helps:
Some HP machines where for whatever reasons specific EC accesses take
very long at resume from S3 (in _WAK function).
The AE_TIME error is passed upwards and the ACPI interpreter will
not execute the rest of the _WAK function which results in not properly
initialized devices/variables with different side-effects.
Afaik, on some MSI machines this helped as well.
If this param is needed there probably are underlying problems like:
- EC firmware bug
- A kernel EC driver bug
- An ACPI interpreter behavior (e.g. timings when specific
EC accesses happen and how) which the EC does not like
- ...
which should get evaluated further, but often are nasty or
impossible to fix from OS side.

There is a number of problems with acpi_pm_device_sleep_state() now.
First, if _S0W is not defined, it prevents devices from being put
into D3 by PCI runtime PM, which shouldn't happen. Second, it
shouldn't use adev->wakeup.state.enabled, because if it's set, it
only means that either the device is permanently enabled to wake up
the system, or that it has been enabled to do that through
/proc/acpi/wakeup. Finally, it should be compiled if CONFIG_PM_SLEEP
is not set, so that PCI runtime PM works correctly in that case.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

* This generic ID isn't useful for driver binding, but it provides

Best you never touch pnp.ids list directly or make sure it can be empty,
instead use:

which always returns a value ("device" as a dummy if the object
has no hid).

The current ACPI GPEs initialization code has a problem that it
enables some GPEs pointed to by device _PRW methods, generally
intended for signaling wakeup events (system or device wakeup).
These GPEs are then almost immediately disabled by the ACPI namespace
scanning code with the help of acpi_gpe_can_wake(), but it would be
better not to enable them at all until really necessary.
Modify the initialization of GPEs so that the ones that have
associated _Lxx or _Exx methods and are not pointed to by any _PRW
methods will be enabled after the namespace scan is complete.

evidently need that for the suspend-resume to work on them. However,
it turned out that this change broke suspend-resume on a few systems,
so commit 72ad5d77fb (ACPI / Sleep:
Allow the NVS saving to be skipped during suspend to RAM) introduced
the acpi_sleep=nonvs command line switch to allow their users to
work around this issue. To keep track of the systems that require

After commit 852972acff (ACPI: Disable
ASPM if the platform won't provide _OSC control for PCIe) control of
the PCIe Capability Structure is unconditionally requested by
acpi_pci_root_add(), which in principle may cause problems to
happen in two ways. First, the BIOS may refuse to give control of
the PCIe Capability Structure if it is not asked for any of the
_OSC features depending on it at the same time. Second, the BIOS may
assume that control of the _OSC features depending on the PCIe
Capability Structure will be requested in the future and may behave
incorrectly if that doesn't happen. For this reason, control of
the PCIe Capability Structure should always be requested along with
control of any other _OSC features that may depend on it (ie. PCIe
native PME, PCIe native hot-plug, PCIe AER).
Rework the PCIe port driver so that (1) it checks which native PCIe
port services can be enabled, according to the BIOS, and (2) it
requests control of all these services simultaneously. In
particular, this causes pcie_portdrv_probe() to fail if the BIOS
refuses to grant control of the PCIe Capability Structure, which
means that no native PCIe port services can be enabled for the PCIe
Root Complex the given port belongs to. If that happens, ASPM is
disabled to avoid problems with mishandling it by the part of the
PCIe hierarchy for which control of the PCIe Capability Structure
has not been received.
Make it possible to override this behavior using 'pcie_ports=native'
(use the PCIe native services regardless of the BIOS response to the
control request), or 'pcie_ports=compat' (do not use the PCIe native
services at all).
Accordingly, rework the existing PCIe port service drivers so that
they don't request control of the services directly.

It is possible that the BIOS will not grant control of all _OSC
features requested via acpi_pci_osc_control_set(), so it is
recommended to negotiate the final set of _OSC features with the
query flag set before calling _OSC to request control of these
features.
To implement it, rework acpi_pci_osc_control_set() so that the caller
can specify the mask of _OSC control bits to negotiate and the mask
of _OSC control bits that are absolutely necessary to it. Then,
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will run _OSC queries in a loop until
the mask of _OSC control bits returned by the BIOS is equal to the
mask passed to it. Also, before running the _OSC request
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will check if the caller's required
control bits are present in the final mask.
Using this mechanism we will be able to avoid situations in which the
BIOS doesn't grant control of certain _OSC features, because they
depend on some other _OSC features that have not been requested.

Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>
There is the assumption in acpi_pci_osc_control_set() that it is
always sufficient to compare the mask of _OSC control bits to be
requested with the result of an _OSC query where all of the known
control bits have been checked. However, in general, that need not
be the case. For example, if an _OSC feature A depends on an _OSC
feature B and control of A, B plus another _OSC feature C is
requested simultaneously, the BIOS may return A, B, C, while it would
only return C if A and C were requested without B.
That may result in passing a wrong mask of _OSC control bits to an
_OSC control request, in which case the BIOS may only grant control
of a subset of the requested features. Moreover, acpi_pci_run_osc()
will return error code if that happens and the caller of
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will not know that it's been granted
control of some _OSC features. Consequently, the system will
generally not work as expected.
Apart from this acpi_pci_osc_control_set() always uses the mask
of _OSC control bits returned by the very first invocation of
acpi_pci_query_osc(), but that is done with the second argument
equal to OSC_PCI_SEGMENT_GROUPS_SUPPORT which generally happens
to affect the returned _OSC control bits.
For these reasons, make acpi_pci_osc_control_set() always check if
control of the requested _OSC features will be granted before making
the final control request. As a result, the osc_control_qry and
osc_queried members of struct acpi_pci_root are not necessary any
more, so drop them and remove the remaining code referring to them.
