2009-11-24ACPICA: Add post-order callback to acpi_walk_namespaceLin Ming
The existing interface only has a pre-order callback. This change adds an additional parameter for a post-order callback which will be more useful for bus scans. ACPICA BZ 779. Also update the external calls to acpi_walk_namespace. http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=779 Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2009-10-13ACPI: video: Loosen strictness of video bus detection codeStefan Bader
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333386 Currently a video bus device must (beside other criteria) define _DOD and _DOS methods to be considered a video device. Some broken BIOSes prevented working backlight control by only defining both for one (non-existing bus) and only _DOD for the rest. With this patch in place the other bus definitions were considered too and backlight control started to work again.

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>

2008-11-07ACPI video: if no ACPI backlight support, use vendor driversThomas Renninger
If an ACPI graphics device supports backlight brightness functions (cmp. with latest ACPI spec Appendix B), let the ACPI video driver control backlight and switch backlight control off in vendor specific ACPI drivers (asus_acpi, thinkpad_acpi, eeepc, fujitsu_laptop, msi_laptop, sony_laptop, acer-wmi). Currently it is possible to load above drivers and let both poke on the brightness HW registers, the video and vendor specific ACPI drivers -> bad. This patch provides the basic support to check for BIOS capabilities before driver loading time. Driver specific modifications are in separate follow up patches. "acpi_backlight=vendor" Prever vendor driver over ACPI driver for backlight. "acpi_backlight=video" (default) Prever ACPI driver over vendor driver for backlight.
