2009-08-28ACPI: Move definition of PREFIX from acpi_bus.h to internal..hLen Brown
Linux/ACPI core files using internal.h all PREFIX "ACPI: ", however, not all ACPI drivers use/want it -- and they should not have to #undef PREFIX to define their own. Add GPL commment to internal.h while we are there. This does not change any actual console output, asside from a whitespace fix. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2009-08-26ACPI processor: force throttling state when BIOS returns incorrect valueFrans Pop
If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0. Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling. Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure the reset really takes effect. Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13389 This patch, together with the next one, fixes a regression introduced in 2.6.30, listed on the regression list. They have been available for 2.5 months now in bugzilla, but have not been picked up, despite various reminders and without any reason given. Google shows that numerous people are hitting this issue. The issue is in itself relatively minor, but the bug in the code is clear. The patches have been in all my kernels and today testing has shown that throttling works correctly with the patches applied when the system overheats (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13918#c14).

2009-06-24ACPI: Make ACPI processor proc I/F depend on the ACPI_PROCFSZhao Yakui
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.

The thermal API currently uses strings to pass values to userspace. This makes it difficult to use from within the kernel. Change the interface to use integers and fix up the consumers.

2008-02-01ACPI: register ACPI Processor as generic thermal cooling deviceZhang Rui
Register ACPI processor as thermal cooling devices. A combination of processor T-state and P-state are used for thermal throttling. the processor will reduce the frequency first and then set the T-state. we use cpufreq_thermal_reduction_pctg to calculate the cpufreq limit, and call cpufreq_verify_with_limit to set the cpufreq limit. if cpufreq driver is loaded, then we have four cooling state for cpufreq control. cooling state 0: cpufreq limit == max_freq cooling state 1: cpufreq limit == max_freq * 80% cooling state 2: cpufreq limit == max_freq * 60% cooling state 3: cpufreq limit == max_freq * 40% after the cpufreq limit is set to 40 percentage of the max_freq, we use T-state for cooling. eg. a processor has P-state support, and it has 8 T-state (T0-T7), the max_state of the proceesor is 10: state cpufreq-limit T-state 0: max_freq T0 1: max_freq * 80% T0 2: max_freq * 60% T0 3: max_freq * 40% T0 4: max_freq * 40% T1 5: max_freq * 40% T2 6: max_freq * 40% T3 7: max_freq * 40% T4 8: max_freq * 40% T5 9: max_freq * 40% T6 10: max_freq * 40% T7 Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Sujith <sujith.thomas@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

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!
