[PATCH v3 0/8] ACPI overlays

[PATCH v3 0/8] ACPI overlays

[Octavian Purdila]

This patch set enables custom ACPI board configuration by adding
mechanisms in the Linux kernel for loading user defined SSDTs.

In order to support ACPI open-ended hardware configurations we need a
way to augment the ACPI configuration provided by the firmware
image. A common example is connecting sensors on I2C / SPI buses on
development boards.

Although this can be accomplished by creating a kernel platform driver
or recompiling the firmware image with updated ACPI tables, neither is
practical: the former proliferates board specific kernel code while
the latter requires access to firmware tools which are often not
publicly available.

Because ACPI supports external references in AML code a more practical
way to augment firmware ACPI configuration is by dynamically loading
user defined SSDT tables that contain the board specific information.

Currently it is possible to load SSDT overlays using the upgrade
initrd mechanism introduced in 4.7. This patch series adds support for
two more methods:

* From an EFI variable

 This is the preferred method, when EFI is supported on the platform,
 because it allows a persistent, OS independent way of storing and
 updating the user defined SSDTs. There is also work underway to
 implement EFI support for loading user defined SSDTs and using this
 method will make it easier to convert to the EFI loading mechanism
 when that will arrive.

* From userspace via configfs

 This is useful when we want to defer the operation to userspace for
 platform detection, loading the SSDTs from a custom partition, etc.

Changes from v2:

* fix a few issues caught by the kbuild test robot

* add more configfs table attributes

* removed the initrd based loading functionality from this patch set
  as this can already be accomplished in 4.7 using the ACPI table
  upgrade mechanism

* rebased to 4.7-rc3

Changes from v1:

* rebased on top of the ACPI install from initrd table functionality;
  there is significant overlap between the 1st patch in this series
  and these patch [1] from Lv - I kept it in this series until the
  discussions around the taint and config option are resolved

* make sure EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES are available before trying to use
  EFI variables to load tables

* rework the ACPI reconfiguration notifications to work on device
  granularity (device added or removed) instead of table granularity
  (table loaded or unloaded)

* add support for table unloading / device removal

* note that the last patch is just a hack to be able to test the table
  unload / device remove functionality, if someone wants to try out
  this patch set

+In order to support ACPI open-ended hardware configurations (e.g. development

+boards.

+

+
+For example, to enumerate a Bosch BMA222E accelerometer on the I2C bus of the
+Minnowboard MAX development board exposed via the LSE connector [1], the
+following ASL code can be used:
+
+DefinitionBlock ("minnowmax.aml", "SSDT", 1, "Vendor", "Accel", 0x00000003)
+{
+    External (\_SB.I2C6, DeviceObj)
+
+    Scope (\_SB.I2C6)
+    {
+        Device (STAC)
+        {
+            Name (_ADR, Zero)
+            Name (_HID, "BMA222E")
+
+            Method (_CRS, 0, Serialized)
+            {
+                Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
+                {
+                    I2cSerialBus (0x0018, ControllerInitiated, 0x00061A80,
+                                  AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.I2C6", 0x00,
+                                  ResourceConsumer, ,)
+                    GpioInt (Edge, ActiveHigh, Exclusive, PullDown, 0x0000,
+                             "\\_SB.GPO2", 0x00, ResourceConsumer, , )
+                    { // Pin list
+                        0
+                    }
+                })
+                Return (RBUF)
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+which can then be compiled to AML binary format:
+
+$ iasl minnowmax.asl
+
+Intel ACPI Component Architecture
+ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20140214-64 [Mar 29 2014]
+Copyright (c) 2000 - 2014 Intel Corporation
+
+ASL Input:     minnomax.asl - 30 lines, 614 bytes, 7 keywords
+AML Output:    minnowmax.aml - 165 bytes, 6 named objects, 1 executable opcodes
+
+[1] http://wiki.minnowboard.org/MinnowBoard_MAX#Low_Speed_Expansion_Connector_.28Top.29
+
+The resulting AML code can then be loaded by the kernel using one of the methods
+below.
+
+== Loading ACPI SSDTs from initrd ==
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from initrd and it is useful
+when the system does not support EFI or when there is not enough EFI storage.
+
+It works in a similar way with initrd based ACPI tables override/upgrade: SSDT
+aml code must be placed in the first, uncompressed, initrd under the
+"kernel/firmware/acpi" path. Multiple files can be used and this will translate
+in loading multiple tables. Only SSDT and OEM tables are allowed. See
+initrd_table_override.txt for more details.
+
+Here is an example:
+
+# Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
+# They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the
+# cpio archive.
+# The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first.
+# Other, typically compressed cpio archives, must be
+# concatenated on top of the uncompressed one.
+mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
+cp ssdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+
+# Create the uncompressed cpio archive and concatenate the original initrd
+# on top:
+find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
+cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd

[PATCH v3 2/8] acpi: fix enumeration (visited) flags for bus rescans

[Octavian Purdila]

If the ACPI tables changes as a result of a dinamically loaded table and
a bus rescan is required the enumeration/visited flag are not
consistent.

I2C/SPI are not directly enumerated in acpi_bus_attach(), however the
visited flag is set. This makes it impossible to check if an ACPI device
has already been enumerated by the I2C and SPI subsystems. To fix this
issue we only set the visited flags if the device is not I2C or SPI.

With this change we also need to remove setting visited to false from
acpi_bus_attach(), otherwise if we rescan already enumerated I2C/SPI
devices we try to re-enumerate them.

[PATCH v3 3/8] acpi: add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers

[Octavian Purdila]

Add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers to allow subsystems to
react to changes in the ACPI tables that happen after the initial
enumeration. This is similar with the way dynamic device tree
notifications work.

The reconfigure notifications supported for now are device add and
device remove.

Since ACPICA allows only one table notification handler, this patch
makes the table notifier function generic and moves it out of the
sysfs specific code.

[PATCH v3 6/8] efi: load SSTDs from EFI variables

[Octavian Purdila]

This patch allows SSDTs to be loaded from EFI variables. It works by
specifying the EFI variable name containing the SSDT to be loaded. All
variables with the same name (regardless of the vendor GUID) will be
loaded.

Note that we can't use acpi_install_table and we must rely on the
dynamic ACPI table loading and bus re-scanning mechanisms. That is
because I2C/SPI controllers are initialized earlier then the EFI
subsystems and all I2C/SPI ACPI devices are enumerated when the
I2C/SPI controllers are initialized.

+
+== Loading ACPI SSDTs from EFI variables ==
+
+This is the preferred method, when EFI is supported on the platform, because it
+allows a persistent, OS independent way of storing the user defined SSDTs. There
+is also work underway to implement EFI support for loading user defined SSDTs
+and using this method will make it easier to convert to the EFI loading
+mechanism when that will arrive.
+
+In order to load SSDTs from an EFI variable the efivar_ssdt kernel command line
+parameter can be used. The argument for the option is the variable name to
+use. If there are multiple variables with the same name but with different
+vendor GUIDs, all of them will be loaded.
+
+In order to store the AML code in an EFI variable the efivarfs filesystem can be
+used. It is enabled and mounted by default in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars in all
+recent distribution.
+
+Creating a new file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will automatically create a new
+EFI variable. Updating a file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will update the EFI
+variable. Please note that the file name needs to be specially formatted as
+"Name-GUID" and that the first 4 bytes in the file (little-endian format)
+represent the attributes of the EFI variable (see EFI_VARIABLE_MASK in
+include/linux/efi.h). Writing to the file must also be done with one write
+operation.
+
+For example, you can use the following bash script to create/update an EFI
+variable with the content from a given file:
+
+#!/bin/sh -e
+
+while ! [ -z "$1" ]; do
+        case "$1" in
+        "-f") filename="$2"; shift;;
+        "-g") guid="$2"; shift;;
+        *) name="$1";;
+        esac
+        shift
+done
+

[PATCH v3 8/8] acpi: add support for loading SSDTs via configfs

[Octavian Purdila]

New tables can be loaded by creating directories under /config/table/
and writing the AML code into the aml table attribute. Various table
attributes will be readable once the table is successfully loaded.

Unloading tables is not supported at the moment, but it can be easily
implemented once ACPI loading functions provide a table handle to be
used for unloading.

 Description:
 		This represents the ACPI subsystem entry point directory. It
 		contains sub-groups corresponding to ACPI configurable options.
+
+What:		/config/acpi/table
+Date:		July 2016
+KernelVersion:	4.8
+Description:
+
+		This group contains the configuration for user defined ACPI
+		tables. The attributes of a user define table are:
+
+		aml 		- a binary attribute that the user can use to
+				fill in the ACPI aml definitions. Once the aml
+				data is written to this file and the file is
+				closed the table will be loaded and ACPI devices
+				will be enumerated. To check if the operation is
+				successful the user must check the error code
+				for close(). If the operation is successful,
+				subsequent writes to this attribute will fail.
+
+		The rest of the attributes are read-only and are valid only
+		after the table has been loaded by filling the aml entry:
+
+		signature 	- ASCII table signature
+		length 		- length of table in bytes, including the header
+		revision 	- ACPI Specification minor version number
+		oem_id 		- ASCII OEM identification
+		oem_table_id 	- ASCII OEM table identification
+		oem_revision 	- OEM revision number
+		asl_compiler_id - ASCII ASL compiler vendor ID
+		asl_compiler_revision - ASL compiler version

Oops, sorry about that. I will have to resend at least the last two
patches to fix this issue, but since I have missed to add the
Reviewed-by from Mika for another two patches, its probably best to
resend the whole series?
