Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
majority of cases.
From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI
device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
device configuration object.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.
There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
the last minute for 4.1.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
_MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
Lv Zheng).
- ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).
- rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).
- fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).
- fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
(Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).
- support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).
- ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).
- ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).
- ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).
- cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).
- assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).
- fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
Kandoi).
- support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).
- new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
Rafael J Wysocki).
- wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).
- new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).
- assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).
- cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).
- cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).
- serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
Bhargava, Joe Konno).
- cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep
Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian).
- assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma,
Fabian Frederick, Wang Long).
- new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance
Points (Viresh Kumar).
- updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
(Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).
- fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the
RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas).
- runtime PM framework documentation update (Ben Dooks).
- cpupower tool fix (Herton R Krzesinski)"

Consequently, in principle it should not be necessary to allocate +a new (and arguably redundant) ACPI/PNP device ID for a devices with an existing +identification string in the Device Tree (DT) namespace, especially if that ID +is only needed to indicate that a given device is compatible with another one, +presumably having a matching driver in the kernel already. + +In ACPI, the device identification object called _CID (Compatible ID) is used to +list the IDs of devices the given one is compatible with, but those IDs must +belong to one of the namespaces prescribed by the ACPI specification (see +Section 6.1.2 of ACPI 6.0 for details) and the DT namespace is not one of them. +Moreover, the specification mandates that either a _HID or an _ADR identificaion +object be present for all ACPI objects representing devices (Section 6.1 of ACPI +6.0). For non-enumerable bus types that object must be _HID and its value must +be a device ID from one of the namespaces prescribed by the specification too. + +The special DT namespace link device ID, PRP0001, provides a means to use the +existing DT-compatible device identification in ACPI and to satisfy the above +requirements following from the ACPI specification at the same time. Namely, +if PRP0001 is returned by _HID, the ACPI subsystem will look for the +"compatible" property in the device object's _DSD and will use the value of that +property to identify the corresponding device in analogy with the original DT +device identification algorithm. If the "compatible" property is not present +or its value is not valid, the device will not be enumerated by the ACPI +subsystem. Otherwise, it will be enumerated automatically as a platform device +(except when an I2C or SPI link from the device to its parent is present, in +which case the ACPI core will leave the device enumeration to the parent's +driver) and the identification strings from the "compatible" property value will +be used to find a driver for the device along with the device IDs listed by _CID +(if present). + +Analogously, if PRP0001 is present in the list of device IDs returned by _CID, +the identification strings listed by the "compatible" property value (if present +and valid) will be used to look for a driver matching the device, but in that +case their relative priority with respect to the other device IDs listed by +_HID and _CID depends on the position of PRP0001 in the _CID return package. +Specifically, the device IDs returned by _HID and preceding PRP0001 in the _CID +return package will be checked first. Also in that case the bus type the device +will be enumerated to depends on the device ID returned by _HID. + +It is valid to define device objects with a _HID returning PRP0001 and without +the "compatible" property in the _DSD or a _CID as long as one of their +ancestors provides a _DSD with a valid "compatible" property.
