de584afa5e hwmon driver for ACPI 4.0 power meters
This driver exposes ACPI 4.0 compliant power meters as hardware monitoring
devices.  This second revision of the driver also exports the ACPI string
info as sysfs attributes, a list of the devices that the meter measures,
and will send ACPI notifications over the ACPI netlink socket.  This
latest revision only enables the power capping controls if it can be
confirmed that the power cap can be enforced by the hardware and explains
how the notification interfaces work.

8e0af5141a ACPI: create Processor Aggregator Device driver
ACPI 4.0 created the logical "processor aggregator device" as
a mechinism for platforms to ask the OS to force otherwise busy
processors to enter (power saving) idle.

The intent is to lower power consumption to ride-out
transient electrical and thermal emergencies,
rather than powering off the server.

On platforms that can save more power/performance via P-states,
the platform will first exhaust P-states before forcing idle.
However, the relative benefit of P-states vs. idle states
is platform dependent, and thus this driver need not know
or care about it.

This driver does not use the kernel's CPU hot-plug mechanism
because after the transient emergency is over, the system must
be returned to its normal state, and hotplug would permanently
break both cpusets and binding.

So to force idle, the driver creates a power saving thread.
The scheduler will migrate the thread to the preferred CPU.
The thread has max priority and has SCHED_RR policy,
so it can occupy one CPU.  To save power, the thread will
invoke the deep C-state entry instructions.

To avoid starvation, the thread will sleep 5% of the time
time for every second (current RT scheduler has threshold
to avoid starvation, but if other CPUs are idle,
the CPU can borrow CPU timer from other,
which makes the mechanism not work here)

Vaidyanathan Srinivasan has proposed scheduler enhancements
to allow injecting idle time into the system.  This driver doesn't
depend on those enhancements, but could cut over to them
when they are available.

Peter Z. does not favor upstreaming this driver until
the those scheduler enhancements are in place.  However,
we favor upstreaming this driver now because it is useful
now, and can be enhanced over time.

74cad4ee98 ACPI: Make ACPI processor proc I/F depend on the ACPI_PROCFS
Now whether the ACPI processor proc I/F is registered depends on the
CONFIG_PROC. It had better depend on the CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS.
When the CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS is unset in kernel configuration, the
ACPI processor proc I/F won't be registered.

268a03a42d PCI: drivers/pci/slot.c should depend on CONFIG_SYSFS
There is no way to interact with a physical PCI slot without
sysfs, so encode the dependency and prevent this build error:

	drivers/pci/slot.c: In function 'pci_hp_create_module_link':
	drivers/pci/slot.c:327: error: 'module_kset' undeclared

This patch _should_ make pci-sysfs.o depend on CONFIG_SYSFS too,
but we cannot (yet) because the PCI core merrily assumes the
existence of sysfs:

	drivers/built-in.o: In function `pci_bus_add_device':
	drivers/pci/bus.c:89: undefined reference to `pci_create_sysfs_dev_files'
	drivers/built-in.o: In function `pci_stop_dev':
	drivers/pci/remove.c:24: undefined reference to `pci_remove_sysfs_dev_files'

So do the minimal bit for now and figure out how to untangle it
later.

5d1e072b6b ACPI suspend: Fix CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP dependence and some compilation warnings
Initially CONFIG_PM_SLEEP was defined as
CONFIG_SUSPEND || CONFIG_HIBERNATION and some ACPI code, most
importantly the code in drivers/acpi/main.c, was written with this
assumption.  Currently, however, CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is also set when
CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE is set.

This causes some compilation warnings to appear in
drivers/acpi/main.c if both CONFIG_SUSPEND and CONFIG_HIBERNATION
are unset and CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is set (this was impossible before).
To fix this problem, redefine CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP do depend directly
on CONFIG_SUSPEND || CONFIG_HIBERNATION, as originally intended, and
use it instead of CONFIG_PM_SLEEP in drivers/acpi/main.c, wherever
appropriate.

Additionally, move the acpi_target_sleep_state definition from under
the #ifdef to prevent compilation from failing in some cases.

c41a40c58b toshiba_acpi: Add support for bluetooth toggling through rfkill (v8)
There's been a patch floating around for toshiba_acpi that exports an ad-hoc
/proc interface to toggle the bluetooth adapter in a large number of Toshiba
laptops. I'm not sure if it's still relevant for the latest models, but it is
still required for older models such as my Tecra M3.

This change pulls in the low level Toshiba-specific code from the old patch and
sets up an rfkill device and a polled input device to track the state of the
hardware kill-switch.

9a9e0d6855 ACPI: Remove ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD option
This essentially reverts commit 71fc47a9ad
("ACPI: basic initramfs DSDT override support"), because the code simply

It did ugly things to the init sequence to populate the rootfs image
early, but that just ended up showing other problems with the whole
approach.  The fact is, the VFS layer simply isn't initialized this
early, and the relevant ACPI code should either run much later, or this
shouldn't be done at all.

For 2.6.25, we'll just pick the latter option.  We can revisit this
concept later if necessary.

bff431e49f ACPI: WMI: Add ACPI-WMI mapping driver
The following is an implementation of the Windows Management
Instrumentation (WMI) ACPI interface mapper (PNP0C14).

What it does:

Parses the _WDG method and exports functions to process WMI method calls,
data block query/ set commands (both based on GUID) and does basic event
handling.

How: WMI presents an in kernel interface here (essentially, a minimal
wrapper around ACPI)

(const char *guid assume the 36 character ASCII representation of
a GUID - e.g. 67C3371D-95A3-4C37-BB61-DD47B491DAAB)

wmi_evaluate_method(const char *guid, u8 instance, u32 method_id,
const struct acpi_buffer *in, struct acpi_buffer *out)

wmi_query_block(const char *guid, u8 instance,
struct acpi_buffer *out)

wmi_set_block(const char *guid, u38 instance,
const struct acpi_buffer *in)

wmi_install_notify_handler(acpi_notify_handler handler);

wmi_remove_notify_handler(void);

wmi_get_event_data(u32 event, struct acpi_buffer *out)

wmi_has_guid(const char guid*)

wmi_has_guid() is a helper function to find if a GUID exists or not on the
system (a quick and easy way for WMI dependant drivers to see if the
the method/ block they want exists, since GUIDs are supposed to be unique).

Event handling - allow a WMI based driver to register a notifier handler
for each GUID with WMI. When a notification is sent to a GUID in WMI, the
handler registered with WMI is then called (it is left to the caller to
ask for the WMI event data associated with the GUID, if needed).

What it won't do:

Unicode - The MS article[1] calls for converting between ASCII and Unicode (or
vice versa) if a GUID is marked as "string". This is left up to the calling
driver.

Handle a MOF[1] - the WMI mapper just exports methods, data and events to
userspace. MOF handling is down to userspace.

Userspace interface - this will be added later.

ChangeLog
==

v1 (2007-10-02):

* Initial release

v2 (2007-10-05):

* Cleaned up code - split up super "wmi_evaluate_block" -> each external
  symbol now handles its own ACPI calls, rather than handing off to
  a "super" method (and in turn, is a lot simpler to read)
* Added a find_guid() symbol - return true if a given GUID exists on
  the system
* wmi_* functions now return type acpi_status (since they are just
  fancy wrappers around acpi_evaluate_object())
* Removed extra debug code

v3 (2007-10-27)

* More code clean up - now passes checkpatch.pl
* Change data block calls - ref MS spec, method ID is not required for
  them, so drop it from the function parameters.
* Const'ify guid in the function call parameters.
* Fix _WDG buffer handling - copy the data to our own private structure.
* Change WMI from tristate to bool - otherwise the external functions are
  not exported in linux/acpi.h if you try to build WMI as a module.
* Fix more flag comparisons.
* Add a maintainers entry - since I wrote this, I should take the blame
  for it.

v4 (2007-10-30)

* Add missing brace from after fixing checkpatch errors.
* Rewrote event handling - allow external drivers to register with WMI to
  handle WMI events
* Clean up flags and sanitise flag handling

v5 (2007-11-03)

* Add sysfs interface for userspace. Export events over netlink again.
* Remove module left overs, fully convert to built-in driver.
* Tweak in-kernel API to use u8 for instance, since this is what the GUID
  blocks use (so instance cannot be greater than u8).
* Export wmi_get_event_data() for in kernel WMI drivers.

v6 (2007-11-07)

* Split out userspace into a different patch

v7 (2007-11-20)

* Fix driver to handle multiple PNP0C14 devices - store all GUIDs using
  the kernel's built in list functions, and just keep adding to the list
  every time we handle a PNP0C14 devices - GUIDs will always be unique,
  and WMI callers do not know or care about different devices.
* Change WMI event handler registration to use its' own event handling
  struct; we should not pass an acpi_handle down to any WMI based drivers
  - they should be able to function with only the calls provided in WMI.
* Update my e-mail address

v8 (2007-11-28)

* Convert back to a module.
* Update Kconfig to default to building as a module.
* Remove an erroneous printk.
* Simply comments for string flag (since we now leave the handling to the
  caller).

v9 (2007-12-07)

* Add back missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for autoloading
* Checkpatch fixes

v10 (2007-12-12)

* Workaround broken GUIDs declared expensive without a WCxx method.
* Minor cleanups

v11 (2007-12-17)

* More fixing for broken GUIDs declared expensive without a WCxx method.
* Add basic EmbeddedControl region handling.

v12 (2007-12-18)

* Changed EC region handling code, as per Alexey's comments.

v13 (2007-12-27)

* Changed event handling so that we can have one event handler registered
  per GUID, as per Matthew Garrett's suggestion.

v14 (2008-01-12)

* Remove ACPI debug statements

v15 (2008-02-01)

* Replace two remaining 'x == NULL' type tests with '!x'

v16 (2008-02-05)

* Change MAINTAINERS entry, as I am not, and never have been, paid to work
  on WMI
* Remove 'default' line from Kconfig

3f655ef8c4 ACPI: register ACPI thermal zone as generic thermal zone devices
Register ACPI thermal zone as thermal zone device.

the new sys I/F for ACPI thermal zone will be like this:

/sys/class/thermal:
|thermal_zone1:
	|-----type:			"ACPI thermal zone". RO
	|-----temp:			the current temperature. RO
	|-----mode:			the current working mode. RW.
					the default value is "kernel"  which means  thermal
					management is done by ACPI thermal driver.
					"echo user > mode" prevents all the ACPI thermal driver
					actions upon any trip points.
	|-----trip_point_0_temp:	the threshold of trip point 0. RO.
	|-----trip_point_0_type:	"critical". RO.
					the type of trip point 0
					This may be one of critical/hot/passive/active[x]
					for an ACPI thermal zone.
	...
	|-----trip_point_3_temp:
	|-----trip_point_3_type:	"active[1]"

fdcedbba2f ACPI: Split out control for /proc/acpi entries from battery, ac, and sbs.
Introduce new ACPI_PROCFS_POWER (default Yes) config option and move
procfs code in battery, ac, and sbs drivers under it.
This is done to allow ACPI_PROCFS to be default No.

cbff2fbf55 acpi: make ACPI_PROCFS default to y
Zillions of people are getting my-battery-monitor-doesnt-work problems
(including me).

Lessen the damage by making ACPI_PROCFS default to on.

355ee5eb60 acpi: remove double mention of Support for ACPI option
Current description for CONFIG_ACPI includes the word "Support" twice.  One
effect of this is that in menuconfig the "--->" that indicates the presence
of sub-options will not show up unless you have a very wide console.
