From fbfddae696572e57a441252abbd65f7220e06030 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Toshi Kani Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2012 01:36:28 +0000 Subject: ACPI: Add acpi_handle_() interfaces This patch introduces acpi_handle_(), where is a kernel message level such as err/warn/info, to support improved logging messages for ACPI, esp. hot-plug operations. acpi_handle_() appends "ACPI" prefix and ACPI object path to the messages. This improves diagnosis of hotplug operations since an error message in a log file identifies an object that caused an issue. This interface acquires the global namespace mutex to obtain an object path. In interrupt context, it shows the object path as . acpi_handle_() takes acpi_handle as an argument, which is passed to ACPI hotplug notify handlers from the ACPICA. Therefore, it is always available unlike other kernel objects, such as device. For example: acpi_handle_err(handle, "Device don't exist, dropping EJECT\n"); logs an error message like this at KERN_ERR. ACPI: \_SB_.SCK4.CPU4: Device don't exist, dropping EJECT ACPI hot-plug drivers can use acpi_handle_() when they need to identify a target ACPI object path in their messages, such as error cases. The usage model is similar to dev_(). acpi_handle_() can be used when a device is not created or is invalid during hot-plug operations. ACPI object path is also consistent on the platform, unlike device name that gets incremented over hotplug operations. ACPI drivers should use dev_() when a device object is valid. Device name provides more user friendly information, and avoids acquiring the global ACPI namespace mutex. ACPI drivers also continue to use pr_() when they do not need to specify device information, such as boot-up messages. Note: ACPI_[WARNING|INFO|ERROR]() are intended for the ACPICA and are not associated with the kernel message level.
