Version 2: Provide /sys/../ec with read/write access and some cleanups

[Thomas Renninger]

This patchset is againt the acpi test branch.
It would be great if these can be applied there.
Patches are test compiled, booted and I played a bit with reading
writing...

Changes to the previous patchset:
    - Use debugfs /sys/kernel/debug/ec/* instead of /sys/devices/...
    - Keep some EC Documentation in the thinkpad driver
    - Add Documentation/ABI describing the new interface

Possible further enhancements:
    - Expose EC Fields and make them read/writable
    - Allow userspace to switch on burst mode to be able to test
      EC burst transitions in userspace

Thanks,

       Thomas

[PATCH 1/7] ACPI: Provide /sys/kernel/debug/ec/...

[Thomas Renninger]

This patch provides the same information through debugfs, which previously was
provided through /proc/acpi/embedded_controller/*/info

This is the gpe the EC is connected to and whether the global lock
gets used.
The io ports used are added to /proc/ioports in another patch.
Beside the fact that /proc/acpi is deprecated for quite some time,
this info is not needed for applications and thus can be moved
to debugfs instead of a public interface like /sys.

[PATCH 2/7] ACPI: Provide /sys/kernel/debug//ec/ec0/io for binary access to the EC

[Thomas Renninger]

A userspace app to easily read/write the EC can be found here:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/trenn/sources/ec/ec_access.c

Multiple ECs are not supported, but shouldn't be hard to add as soon
as the ec driver itself will support them.

[PATCH 3/7] ACPI: Register EC io ports in /proc/ioports

[Thomas Renninger]

Formerly these have been exposed through /proc/..
Better register them where all IO ports should get registered
and scream loud if someone else claims to use them.

EC data and command port typically should show up like this
then:
...
  0060-0060 : keyboard
  0062-0062 : EC data
  0064-0064 : keyboard
  0066-0066 : EC command
  0070-0071 : rtc0
...

[PATCH 4/7] ACPI: Remove /proc/acpi/embedded_controller/..

[Thomas Renninger]

Other patches in this series add the same info to /sys/... and
/proc/ioports.

The info removed should never have been used in an application,
eventually someone read it manually.
/proc/acpi is deprecated for more than a year anyway...

-This feature is marked EXPERIMENTAL because the implementation

-This feature dumps the values of 256 embedded controller

+What:		/sys/kernel/debug/ec/*/{gpe,use_global_lock,io}
+Date:		July 2010
+Contact:	Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de>
+Description:
+
+General information like which GPE is assigned to the EC and whether
+the global lock should get used.
+Knowing the EC GPE one can watch the amount of HW events related to
+the EC here (XY -> GPE number from /sys/kernel/debug/ec/*/gpe):
+/sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpeXY
+
+The io file is binary and a userspace tool located here:
+ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/trenn/sources/ec/
+should get used to read out the 256 Embedded Controller registers
+or writing to them.
+
+CAUTION: Do not write to the Embedded Controller if you don't know
+what you are doing! Rebooting afterwards also is a good idea.
+This can influence the way your machine is cooled and fans may
+not get switched on again after you did a wrong write.
