ACPI: disable lower idle C-states across suspend/resume

2007-09-23T00:15:34Z

device_suspend() calls ACPI suspend functions, which seems to have undesired side effects on lower idle C-states. It took me some time to realize that especially the VAIO BIOSes (both Andrews jinxed UP and my elfstruck SMP one) show this effect. I'm quite sure that other bug reports against suspend/resume about turning the system into a brick have the same root cause. After fishing in the dark for quite some time, I realized that removing the ACPI processor module before suspend (this removes the lower C-state functionality) made the problem disappear. Interestingly enough the propability of having a bricked box is influenced by various factors (interrupts, size of the ram image, ...). Even adding a bunch of printks in the wrong places made the problem go away. The previous periodic tick implementation simply pampered over the problem, which explains why the dyntick / clockevents changes made this more prominent. We avoid complex functionality during the boot process and we have to do the same during suspend/resume. It is a similar scenario and equaly fragile. Add suspend / resume functions to the ACPI processor code and disable the lower idle C-states across suspend/resume. Fall back to the default idle implementation (halt) instead.

ACPI: Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal

2007-08-23T19:20:26Z

Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal in 6 months. Re-name acpi_bus_generate_event() to acpi_bus_generate_proc_event() to make sure there is no confusion that it is for /proc/acpi/event only. Add CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT to allow removal of /proc/acpi/event. There is no functional change if CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT=y Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: don't duplicate input events on netlink

2007-08-23T18:27:23Z

The previous events patch added a netlink event for every user of the legacy /proc/acpi/event interface. However, some users of /proc/acpi/event are really input events, and they already report their events via the input layer. Introduce a new interface, acpi_bus_generate_netlink_event(), which is explicitly called by devices that want to repoprt events via netlink. This allows the input-like events to opt-out of generating netlink events. In summary: events that are sent via netlink: ac/battery/sbs thermal processor thinkpad_acpi dock/bay events that are sent via input layer: button video hotkey thinkpad_acpi hotkey asus_acpi/asus-laptop hotkey sonypi/sonylaptop Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui Signed-off-by: Len Brown

acpi-cpufreq: Fix some x86/x86-64 acpi-cpufreq driver issues

2007-08-07T22:40:30Z

This patch addresses some issues in x86/x86-64 acpi-cpufreq driver: 1. Current memory allocation for acpi_perf_data is actually open-coded alloc_percpu(). The patch defines and handles acpi_perf_data as percpu data. The code will be cleaner and easier to be maintained with this change. 2. Won't load driver in acpi_cpufreq_early_init() failure case. 3. Add __init for acpi_cpufreq_early_init(). Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu Acked-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi Cc: Dave Jones Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Len Brown

ACPI: restore CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP

Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND for suspend-to-Ram and standby

2007-07-29T23:45:38Z

Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND representing the ability to enter system sleep states, such as the ACPI S3 state, and allow the user to choose SUSPEND and HIBERNATION independently of each other. Make HOTPLUG_CPU be selected automatically if SUSPEND or HIBERNATION has been chosen and the kernel is intended for SMP systems. Also, introduce CONFIG_PM_SLEEP which is automatically selected if CONFIG_SUSPEND or CONFIG_HIBERNATION is set and use it to select the code needed for both suspend and hibernation. The top-level power management headers and the ACPI code related to suspend and hibernation are modified to use the new definitions (the changes in drivers/acpi/sleep/main.c are, mostly, moving code to reduce the number of ifdefs). There are many other files in which CONFIG_PM can be replaced with CONFIG_PM_SLEEP or even with CONFIG_SUSPEND, but they can be updated in the future. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
