#1421361 — [RESEND PATCH v5 0/1] ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version

FromAl Stone <al.stone@linaro.org>
Date2016-06-13 23:50 +0200
Subject[RESEND PATCH v5 0/1] ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version
Message-ID<rJHU5-3wH-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
This is a resend only: Ping?  Last ping was 26 May; there has been zero
response since then.  Already have one ACK from Lorenzo; another from an
arm64 maintainer would be really helpful.


The ACPI 6.1 specification was recently released at the end of January
2016, but the arm64 kernel documentation for the use of ACPI was written
for the 5.1 version of the spec.  There were significant additions to the
spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms
added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states,
as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from
GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events.

This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail
and updating content appropriately.  Whilst there, a few odds and ends of
typos were caught as well.  This brings the documentation up to date with
ACPI 6.1 for arm64.

Changes for v5:
   -- Miscellaneous typos and corrections (Lorenzo Pieralisi)
   -- Add linux-acpi@ ML to the distribution list (Alexey Klimov)
   -- Corrections to CPPC information (Alexey Klimov)
   -- ACK from Lorenzo Pieralisi
   -- Updated bibliographic info (Al Stone)

Changes for v4:
   -- Clarify that IORT can sometimes be optional (Jon Masters).
   -- Remove "Use as needed" descriptions of ACPI objects; they provide
      no substantive information and doing so simplifies maintenance of
      this document over time.  These have been replaced with a simpler
      notice that states that unless otherwise noted, do what the ACPI
      specification says is needed.
   -- Corrected the _OSI object usage recommendation; it described kernel
      behavior that does not exist (Al Stone).

Changes for v3:
   -- Clarify use of _LPI/_RDI (Vikas Sajjan)
   -- Whitespace cleanup as pointed out by checkpatch

Changes for v2:
   -- Clean up white space (Harb Abdulhahmid)
   -- Clarification on _CCA usage (Harb Abdulhamid)
   -- IORT moved to required from recommended (Hanjun Guo)
   -- Clarify IORT description (Hanjun Guo)

I thought there were outstanding comments on v4 of this?

Hmm, that's weird. You sent a v5 on 25 April:

but I can't find that in either my ARM inbox or my gmail inbox that's
subscribed to the lists. I guess Catalin can pick this up for 4.8.

Huh.  I have no idea why that would have happened.  I used the same
script to send the emails for all the revisions.

Thanks for checking, Will.  If this would get picked up for 4.8, that would be
most excellent.

I'll queue it for 4.8 (should appear in -next towards the end of this
week).
