| |_|/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have a machine here that's sending 0xD1 notifications on the video device once every second or so. I have no idea why (it's a prototype, it may be broken), but sending KEY_UNKNOWN is unhelpful and results in the console becoming unusable. Let's not report keys unless we have something useful to say about them.

| | * ACPI / PM: Move ACPI video resume to a PM notifierRafael J. Wysocki2010-04-061-8/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a problem with the ACPI video resume routine that it's executed before the GPU that may be accessed by it. To fix this issue, move the ACPI video resume to a power management notifier, so that's executed after resuming all devices, including the GPU. Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15096, which is a listed regression from 2.6.31. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

| | * include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some buggy BIOS exports multiple ACPI video bus devices for the same VGA controller, and multiple backlight control methods as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | proc.c and video.c are a bit sloppy around types and style, confusing gcc for a new feature that'll be in 2.6.33 and will cause a warning on the current code. This patch changes if (foo + 1 > sizeof bar) into if (foo >= sizeof(bar)) which is more kernel-style. it also changes a variable in proc.c to unsigned; it gets assigned a value from an unsigned type, and is then only compared for > not for negative, so using unsigned is just outright the right type Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

But this logic doesn't work actually, because the _BQC_use_index is not set when acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level is invoked. This results in a failure in step 2. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12249#c83 Now, we set the _BQC_use_index flag after invoking _BQC for the first time. And reevaluate the _BQC to get the correct brightness level. Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

* ACPI: video: use .notify method instead of installing handler directlyBjorn Helgaas2009-04-071-25/+5
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a .notify() method. The presence of .notify() causes Linux/ACPI to manage event handlers and notify handlers on our behalf, so we don't have to install and remove them ourselves.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
