  • 32bit vs 64 bit issues. sizeof(sizeof) and sizeof(pointer) is variable,
    but we're trying to print it as unsigned int or u32.

    Casts to unsigned long are used because type acpi_thread_id can be any one of

    typedef u64 acpi_native_uint;
    typedef u32 acpi_native_uint;
    typedef u16 acpi_native_uint;
    #define acpi_thread_id struct task_struct *

  • Linux mutexes and the debug code that that reference
    acpi_os_get_thread_id() are happy with 0.
    But the AML mutexes in exmutex.c expect a unique non-zero
    number for each thread - as they track this thread_id
    to permit the mutex re-entrancy defined by the ACPI spec.

  • Implemented header file support for the following
    additional ACPI tables: ASF!, BOOT, CPEP, DBGP, MCFG, SPCR,
    SPMI, TCPA, and WDRT. With this support, all current and
    known ACPI tables are now defined in the ACPICA headers and
    are available for use by device drivers and other software.

    Implemented support to allow tables that contain ACPI
    names with invalid characters to be loaded. Previously,
    this would cause the table load to fail, but since
    there are several known cases of such tables on
    existing machines, this change was made to enable
    ACPI support for them. Also, this matches the
    behavior of the Microsoft ACPI implementation.
    https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=147621

    Fixed a couple regressions introduced during the memory
    optimization in the 20060317 release. The namespace
    node definition required additional reorganization and
    an internal datatype that had been changed to 8-bit was
    restored to 32-bit. (Valery Podrezov)

    Fixed a problem where a null pointer passed to
    acpi_ut_delete_generic_state() could be passed through
    to acpi_os_release_object which is unexpected. Such
    null pointers are now trapped and ignored, matching
    the behavior of the previous implementation before the
    deployment of acpi_os_release_object(). (Valery Podrezov,
    Fiodor Suietov)

    Fixed a memory mapping leak during the deletion of
    a SystemMemory operation region where a cached memory
    mapping was not deleted. This became a noticeable problem
    for operation regions that are defined within frequently
    used control methods. (Dana Meyers)

    Reorganized the ACPI table header files into two main
    files: one for the ACPI tables consumed by the ACPICA core,
    and another for the miscellaneous ACPI tables that are
    consumed by the drivers and other software. The various
    FADT definitions were merged into one common section and
    three different tables (ACPI 1.0, 1.0+, and 2.0)

  • Tagged all external interfaces to the subsystem with the
    new ACPI_EXPORT_SYMBOL macro. This macro can be defined
    as necessary to assist kernel integration. For Linux,
    the macro resolves to the EXPORT_SYMBOL macro. The default
    definition is NULL.

    Added the ACPI_THREAD_ID type for the return value from
    acpi_os_get_thread_id(). This allows the host to define this
    as necessary to simplify kernel integration. The default
    definition is ACPI_NATIVE_UINT.

    Valery Podrezov fixed two interpreter problems related
    to error processing, the deletion of objects, and placing
    invalid pointers onto the internal operator result stack.

    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6151

    Increased the reference count threshold where a warning is
    emitted for large reference counts in order to eliminate
    unnecessary warnings on systems with large namespaces
    (especially 64-bit.) Increased the value from 0x400
    to 0x800.

    Due to universal disagreement as to the meaning of the
    'c' in the calloc() function, the ACPI_MEM_CALLOCATE
    macro has been renamed to ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED so that the
    purpose of the interface is 'clear'. ACPI_MEM_ALLOCATE and
    ACPI_MEM_FREE are renamed to ACPI_ALLOCATE and ACPI_FREE.

  • Added 2006 copyright.

    At SuSE's suggestion, enabled all error messages
    without enabling function tracing, ie with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=n

    Replaced all instances of the ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT macro invoked at
    the ACPI_DB_ERROR and ACPI_DB_WARN debug levels with
    the ACPI_REPORT_ERROR and ACPI_REPORT_WARNING macros,
    respectively. This preserves all error and warning messages
    in the non-debug version of the ACPICA code (this has been
    referred to as the "debug lite" option.) Over 200 cases
    were converted to create a total of over 380 error/warning
    messages across the ACPICA code. This increases the code
    and data size of the default non-debug version by about 13K.
    Added ACPI_NO_ERROR_MESSAGES flag to enable deleting all messages.
    The size of the debug version remains about the same.

  • Implemented a full bytewise compare to determine if a table load
    request is attempting to load a duplicate table. The compare is
    performed if the table signatures and table lengths match. This
    will allow different tables with the same OEM Table ID and
    revision to be loaded.

    Although the BIOS is technically violating the ACPI spec when
    this happens -- it does happen -- so Linux must handle it.

  • Implemented support to ignore an attempt to install/load
    a particular ACPI table more than once. Apparently there
    exists BIOS code that repeatedly attempts to load the same
    SSDT upon certain events. Thanks to Venkatesh Pallipadi.

    Restructured the main interface to the AML parser in
    order to correctly handle all exceptional conditions. This
    will prevent leakage of the OwnerId resource and should
    eliminate the AE_OWNER_ID_LIMIT exceptions seen on some
    machines. Thanks to Alexey Starikovskiy.

    Support for "module level code" has been disabled in this
    version due to a number of issues that have appeared
    on various machines. The support can be enabled by
    defining ACPI_ENABLE_MODULE_LEVEL_CODE during subsystem
    compilation. When the issues are fully resolved, the code
    will be enabled by default again.

    Modified the internal functions for debug print support
    to define the FunctionName parameter as a (const char *)
    for compatibility with compiler built-in macros such as
    __FUNCTION__, etc.

    Linted the entire ACPICA source tree for both 32-bit
    and 64-bit.

  • The use of the CPU stack in the debug version of the
    subsystem has been considerably reduced. Previously, a
    debug structure was declared in every function that used
    the debug macros. This structure has been removed in
    favor of declaring the individual elements as parameters
    to the debug functions. This reduces the cumulative stack
    use during nested execution of ACPI function calls at the
    cost of a small increase in the code size of the debug
    version of the subsystem. With assistance from Alexey
    Starikovskiy and Len Brown.

    Added the ACPI_GET_FUNCTION_NAME macro to enable the
    compiler-dependent headers to define a macro that will
    return the current function name at runtime (such as
    __FUNCTION__ or _func_, etc.) The function name is used
    by the debug trace output. If ACPI_GET_FUNCTION_NAME
    is not defined in the compiler-dependent header, the
    function name is saved on the CPU stack (one pointer per
    function.) This mechanism is used because apparently there
    exists no standard ANSI-C defined macro that that returns
    the function name.

    Alexey Starikovskiy redesigned and reimplemented the
    "Owner ID" mechanism used to track namespace objects
    created/deleted by ACPI tables and control method
    execution. A bitmap is now used to allocate and free the
    IDs, thus solving the wraparound problem present in the
    previous implementation. The size of the namespace node
    descriptor was reduced by 2 bytes as a result.

    Removed the UINT32_BIT and UINT16_BIT types that were used
    for the bitfield flag definitions within the headers for
    the predefined ACPI tables. These have been replaced by
    UINT8_BIT in order to increase the code portability of
    the subsystem. If the use of UINT8 remains a problem,
    we may be forced to eliminate bitfields entirely because
    of a lack of portability.

    Alexey Starikovksiy enhanced the performance of
    acpi_ut_update_object_reference. This is a frequently used
    function and this improvement increases the performance
    of the entire subsystem.

    Alexey Starikovskiy fixed several possible memory leaks
    and the inverse - premature object deletion.

  • ACPICA 20050617:

    Moved the object cache operations into the OS interface
    layer (OSL) to allow the host OS to handle these operations
    if desired (for example, the Linux OSL will invoke the
    slab allocator). This support is optional; the compile
    time define ACPI_USE_LOCAL_CACHE may be used to utilize
    the original cache code in the ACPI CA core. The new OSL
    interfaces are shown below. See utalloc.c for an example
    implementation, and acpiosxf.h for the exact interface
    definitions. Thanks to Alexey Starikovskiy.
    acpi_os_create_cache
    acpi_os_delete_cache
    acpi_os_purge_cache
    acpi_os_acquire_object
    acpi_os_release_object

    Modified the interfaces to acpi_os_acquire_lock and
    acpi_os_release_lock to return and restore a flags
    parameter. This fits better with many OS lock models.
    Note: the current execution state (interrupt handler
    or not) is no longer passed to these interfaces. If
    necessary, the OSL must determine this state by itself, a
    simple and fast operation. Thanks to Alexey Starikovskiy.

    Fixed a problem in the ACPI table handling where a valid
    XSDT was assumed present if the revision of the RSDP
    was 2 or greater. According to the ACPI specification,
    the XSDT is optional in all cases, and the table manager
    therefore now checks for both an RSDP >=2 and a valid
    XSDT pointer. Otherwise, the RSDT pointer is used.
    Some ACPI 2.0 compliant BIOSs contain only the RSDT.

    Fixed an interpreter problem with the Mid() operator in the
    case of an input string where the resulting output string
    is of zero length. It now correctly returns a valid,
    null terminated string object instead of a string object
    with a null pointer.

    Fixed a problem with the control method argument handling
    to allow a store to an Arg object that already contains an
    object of type Device. The Device object is now correctly
    overwritten. Previously, an error was returned.

    ACPICA 20050624:

    Modified the new OSL cache interfaces to use ACPI_CACHE_T
    as the type for the host-defined cache object. This allows
    the OSL implementation to define and type this object in
    any manner desired, simplifying the OSL implementation.
    For example, ACPI_CACHE_T is defined as kmem_cache_t for
    Linux, and should be defined in the OS-specific header
    file for other operating systems as required.

    Changed the interface to AcpiOsAcquireObject to directly
    return the requested object as the function return (instead
    of ACPI_STATUS.) This change was made for performance
    reasons, since this is the purpose of the interface in the
    first place. acpi_os_acquire_object is now similar to the
    acpi_os_allocate interface. Thanks to Alexey Starikovskiy.

    Modified the initialization sequence in
    acpi_initialize_subsystem to call the OSL interface
    acpi_osl_initialize first, before any local initialization.
    This change was required because the global initialization
    now calls OSL interfaces.

    Restructured the code base to split some files because
    of size and/or because the code logically belonged in a
    separate file. New files are listed below.

    utilities/utcache.c /* Local cache interfaces */
    utilities/utmutex.c /* Local mutex support */
    utilities/utstate.c /* State object support */
    parser/psloop.c /* Main AML parse loop */

  • Fixed three cases in the interpreter where an "index"
    argument to an ASL function was still (internally) 32
    bits instead of the required 64 bits. This was the Index
    argument to the Index, Mid, and Match operators.

    The "strupr" function is now permanently local
    (acpi_ut_strupr), since this is not a POSIX-defined
    function and not present in most kernel-level C
    libraries. References to the C library strupr function
    have been removed from the headers.

    Completed the deployment of static
    functions/prototypes. All prototypes with the static
    attribute have been moved from the headers to the owning
    C file.

    ACPICA 20050329 from Bob Moore

    An error is now generated if an attempt is made to create
    a Buffer Field of length zero (A CreateField with a length
    operand of zero.)

    The interpreter now issues a warning whenever executable
    code at the module level is detected during ACPI table
    load. This will give some idea of the prevalence of this
    type of code.

    Implemented support for references to named objects (other
    than control methods) within package objects.

    Enhanced package object output for the debug
    object. Package objects are now completely dumped, showing
    all elements.

    Enhanced miscellaneous object output for the debug
    object. Any object can now be written to the debug object
    (for example, a device object can be written, and the type
    of the object will be displayed.)

    The "static" qualifier has been added to all local
    functions across the core subsystem.

    The number of "long" lines (> 80 chars) within the source
    has been significantly reduced, by about 1/3.

    Cleaned up all header files to ensure that all CA/iASL
    functions are prototyped (even static functions) and the
    formatting is consistent.

    Two new header files have been added, acopcode.h and
    acnames.h.

    Removed several obsolete functions that were no longer
    used.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
