ACPIPHP / radeon / nouveau: Fix VGA switcheroo problem related to hotplug

2014-01-09T20:25:16Z

commit f244d8b623dae7a7bc695b0336f67729b95a9736 upstream. The changes in the ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem made during the 3.12 development cycle uncovered a problem with VGA switcheroo that on some systems, when the device-specific method (ATPX in the radeon case, _DSM in the nouveau case) is used to turn off the discrete graphics, the BIOS generates ACPI hotplug events for that device and those events cause ACPIPHP to attempt to remove the device from the system (they are events for a device that was present previously and is not present any more, so that's what should be done according to the spec). Then, the system stops functioning correctly. Since the hotplug events in question were simply silently ignored previously, the least intrusive way to address that problem is to make ACPIPHP ignore them again. For this purpose, introduce a new ACPI device flag, no_hotplug, and modify ACPIPHP to ignore hotplug events for PCI devices whose ACPI companions have that flag set. Next, make the radeon and nouveau switcheroo detection code set the no_hotplug flag for the discrete graphics' ACPI companion.

ACPI / hotplug: Fix conflicted PCI bridge notify handlers

2013-12-04T19:05:40Z

commit ca499fc87ed945094d952da0eb7eea7dbeb1feec upstream. The PCI host bridge scan handler installs its own notify handler, handle_hotplug_event_root(), by itself. Nevertheless, the ACPI hotplug framework also installs the common notify handler, acpi_hotplug_notify_cb(), for PCI root bridges. This causes acpi_hotplug_notify_cb() to call _OST method with unsupported error as hotplug.enabled is not set. To address this issue, introduce hotplug.ignore flag, which indicates that the scan handler installs its own notify handler by itself. The ACPI hotplug framework does not install the common notify handler when this flag is set. Signed-off-by: Toshi Kani [rjw: Changed the name of the new flag] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

ACPI / PM: Drop two functions that are not used any more

2013-10-17T13:44:48Z

Two functions defined in device_pm.c, acpi_dev_pm_add_dependent() and acpi_dev_pm_remove_dependent(), have no callers and may be dropped, so drop them. Moreover, they are the only functions adding entries to and removing entries from the power_dependent list in struct acpi_device, so drop that list too. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

ACPI / hotplug: Remove containers synchronously

2013-08-29T20:01:16Z

The current protocol for handling hot remove of containers is very fragile and causes acpi_eject_store() to acquire acpi_scan_lock which may deadlock with the removal of the device that it is called for (the reason is that device sysfs attributes cannot be removed while their callbacks are being executed and ACPI device objects are removed under acpi_scan_lock). The problem is related to the fact that containers are handled by acpi_bus_device_eject() in a special way, which is to emit an offline uevent instead of just removing the container. Then, user space is expected to handle that uevent and use the container's "eject" attribute to actually remove it. That is fragile, because user space may fail to complete the ejection (for example, by not using the container's "eject" attribute at all) leaving the BIOS kind of in a limbo. Moreover, if the eject event is not signaled for a container itself, but for its parent device object (or generally, for an ancestor above it in the ACPI namespace), the container will be removed straight away without doing that whole dance. For this reason, modify acpi_bus_device_eject() to remove containers synchronously like any other objects (user space will get its uevent anyway in case it does some other things in response to it) and remove the eject_pending ACPI device flag that is not used any more. This way acpi_eject_store() doesn't have a reason to acquire acpi_scan_lock any more and one possible deadlock scenario goes away (plus the code is simplified a bit).
