There are a few BIOSes that we know of already that need to use the ACPI 1.0
suspend order. This appears to be only be a small minority of mostly nVidia
based systems.
Based on observation of Windows behaviour, it's clear that Windows is also
doing maintaining its own list of broken hardware that needs this workaround.

ACPI defines a hardware signature. BIOS calculates the signature according to
hardware configure and if hardware changes while hibernated, the signature
will change. In that case, S4 resume should fail.
Still, there may be systems on which this mechanism does not work correctly,
so it is better to provide a workaround for them. For this reason, add a new
switch to the acpi_sleep= command line argument allowing one to disable
hardware signature checking.

* This patch replaces the dangerous lvalue version of cpumask_of_cpu
with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros. These are patterned after the
node_to_cpumask_ptr macros.
In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to
the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used. The cpumask_of_cpu_map
is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing
greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for
cpumask_of_cpu(). The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for
calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space
needed to pass the cpumask_t value.
If there isn't a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is
declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as
a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable. Afterwards,
the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value. The compiler
will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well
as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code.
A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c:
case SVC_POOL_PERCPU:
{
unsigned int cpu = m->pool_to[pidx];
cpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu);
*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask);
return 1;
}
case SVC_POOL_PERNODE:
{
unsigned int node = m->pool_to[pidx];
node_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node);
*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask);
return 1;
}

Subject:ACPI: Set FAN device to correct state in boot phase
From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com>
On some laptops when ACPI FAN driver is loaded, maybe the FAN device will be
turned on. But if the temperature is below the threshold, the corresponding
FAN device should be turned off in the course of loading thermal driver.
So it is necessary to set the FAN device to the correct state in course of loading
the thermal driver.

According to acpi spec , the objectes of _BCL and _BCM are required if
integrated LCD is present and supports brightness level and the _BQC is
the optional object. So the _BQC object will be ignored when the backlight
device is registered.
At the same time when there is no _BQC object, the current brightness will be
set to the maximum.

Silently ignore _PRS End Tags. We already ignore Start Dependent Functions in
_PRS, and we already ignore End Tags in _CRS, so we might as well ignore End
Tags in _PRS as well.
Silently ignore _PRS IRQ descriptors that mention no interrupts. The spec
allows this (section 6.4.2.1 in ACPI 3.0b spec), and it probably means the
interrupt link can't be configured at all.
This patch doesn't change any functional behavior; it just removes confusing
complaints like these:
ACPI: Blank IRQ resource
ACPI: Resource is not an IRQ entry
when parsing _PRS data "23 00 00 18 79 00" from an IBM xSeries 335 dual
Pentium IV Xeon 2.40 GHz machine. For more details, see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11049
The "23 00 00 18" part is a three-byte-long small IRQ resource with no bits set
in the IRQ mask ("00 00"), and level-triggered, active low, shareable ("18").
The "79 00" is an End Tag (type 0x7). It is superfluous since there is no
Start Dependent Function tag and there are no resources after it, but it is
harmless.

The (1.0 inherited) separate length fields in the FADT are byte granular.
Further, PM1a/b may have distinct lengths and live in distinct address spaces.
acpi_tb_convert_fadt() should account for all of these conditions.
Apart from these changes I'm puzzled by the fact that, not just for
acpi_gbl_xpm1{a,b}_enable, acpi_hw_low_level_{read,write}() get an explicit
size passed rather than using the size found in the passed GAS. What happens
on a platform that defines PM1{a,b} wider than 16 bits? Of course,
acpi_hw_low_level_{read,write}() at present are entirely un-prepared to deal
with sizes other than 8, 16, or 32, not to speak of a non-zero bit_offset or

"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT
instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH)
C-states.
When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally
negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1,
and use IO accesses for deeper C-states.
This option is useful for power and performance
comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs
where broken MWAIT support is advertised.

Under /proc/acpi, there is a fan control interface, a user can
set 0 or 3 to /proc/acpi/fan/*/state, 0 denotes D0 state, 3
denotes D3 state, but in current implementation, a user can
set a fan to D1 state by any char excluding '1', '2' and '3'.
For example:
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state

[root@localhost acpi]# echo "" > /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state
[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state

[root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/fan/C31B/state

Obviously, such inputs as "" and "xxxxx" are invalid for fan state.
