Removed a device initialization optimization introduced in
20051216 where the _STA method was not run unless an _INI
was also present for the same device. This optimization
could cause problems because it could allow _INI methods
to be run within a not-present device subtree (If a
not-present device had no _INI, _STA would not be run,
the not-present status would not be discovered, and the
children of the device would be incorrectly traversed.)Implemented a new _STA optimization where namespace
subtrees that do not contain _INI are identified and
ignored during device initialization. Selectively running
_STA can significantly improve boot time on large machines
(with assistance from Len Brown.)Implemented support for the device initialization case
where the returned _STA flags indicate a device not-present
but functioning. In this case, _INI is not run, but the
device children are examined for presence, as per the
ACPI specification.Implemented an additional change to the IndexField support
in order to conform to MS behavior. The value written to
the Index Register is not simply a byte offset, it is a
byte offset in units of the access width of the parent
Index Field. (Fiodor Suietov)Defined and deployed a new OSL interface,
acpi_os_validate_address(). This interface is called during
the creation of all AML operation regions, and allows
the host OS to exert control over what addresses it will
allow the AML code to access. Operation Regions whose
addresses are disallowed will cause a runtime exception
when they are actually accessed (will not affect or abort
table loading.)Defined and deployed a new OSL interface,
acpi_os_validate_interface(). This interface allows the host OS
to match the various "optional" interface/behavior strings
for the _OSI predefined control method as appropriate
(with assistance from Bjorn Helgaas.)Restructured and corrected various problems in the
exception handling code paths within DsCallControlMethod
and DsTerminateControlMethod in dsmethod (with assistance
from Takayoshi Kochi.)Modified the Linux source converter to ignore quoted string
literals while converting identifiers from mixed to lower
case. This will correct problems with the disassembler
and other areas where such strings must not be modified.The ACPI_FUNCTION_* macros no longer require quotes around
the function name. This allows the Linux source converter
to convert the names, now that the converter ignores
quoted strings.Signed-off-by: Bob Moore

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=6151Increased 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.Signed-off-by: Bob Moore

Removed a couple of extraneous ACPI_ERROR messages that
appeared during normal execution. These became apparent
after the conversion from ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT.Fixed a problem where the CreateField operator could hang
if the BitIndex or NumBits parameter referred to a named
object. From Valery Podrezov.

Implemented support in the Resource Manager to allow
unresolved namestring references within resource package
objects for the _PRT method. This support is in addition
to the previously implemented unresolved reference
support within the AML parser. If the interpreter slack
mode is enabled (true on Linux unless acpi=strict),
these unresolved references will be passed through
to the caller as a NULL package entry.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5741Implemented and deployed new macros and functions for
error and warning messages across the subsystem. These
macros are simpler and generate less code than their
predecessors. The new macros ACPI_ERROR, ACPI_EXCEPTION,
ACPI_WARNING, and ACPI_INFO replace the ACPI_REPORT_*
macros.Implemented the acpi_cpu_flags type to simplify host OS
integration of the Acquire/Release Lock OSL interfaces.
Suggested by Steven Rostedt and Andrew Morton.Fixed a problem where Alias ASL operators are sometimes
not correctly resolved. causing AE_AML_INTERNAL
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5189
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5674Fixed several problems with the implementation of the
ConcatenateResTemplate ASL operator. As per the ACPI
specification, zero length buffers are now treated as a
single EndTag. One-length buffers always cause a fatal
exception. Non-zero length buffers that do not end with
a full 2-byte EndTag cause a fatal exception.Fixed a possible structure overwrite in the
AcpiGetObjectInfo external interface. (With assistance

Added 2006 copyright.
At SuSE's suggestion, enabled all error messages
without enabling function tracing, ie with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=nReplaced 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.Signed-off-by: Bob Moore

Implemented optional support to allow unresolved names
within ASL Package objects. A null object is inserted in
the package when a named reference cannot be located in
the current namespace. Enabled via the interpreter slack
flag which Linux has enabled by default (acpi=strict
to disable slack). This should eliminate AE_NOT_FOUND
exceptions seen on machines that contain such code.Implemented an optimization to the initialization
sequence that can improve boot time. During ACPI device
initialization, the _STA method is now run if and only
if the _INI method exists. The _STA method is used to
determine if the device is present; An _INI can only be
run if _STA returns present, but it is a waste of time to
run the _STA method if the _INI does not exist. (Prototype
and assistance from Dong Wei)Implemented use of the C99 uintptr_t for the pointer
casting macros if it is available in the current
compiler. Otherwise, the default (void *) cast is used
as before.Fixed some possible memory leaks found within the
execution path of the Break, Continue, If, and CreateField
operators. (Valery Podrezov)Fixed a problem introduced in the 20051202 release where
an exception is generated during method execution if a
control method attempts to declare another method.Signed-off-by: Bob Moore

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_objectModified 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 */

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.Signed-off-by: Len Brown

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!
