  To: ACPI Developers

Folks,
2.4.23 shipped -- and I'd like to thank all of you for helping build the
best stable ACPI kernel yet!

There is a new 2.4.24 BK tree on bkbits and corresponding patch
directory on kernel.org (below).  The latest ACPI patch integrated with
2.4.24 will live there.  At the same time, I'll also export the latest
ACPI patch backported to the 2.4.22 and 2.4.23 BK trees and patch
directories.

The latest patch (below) contains two ACPICA updates, as well as a
handful of other patches.  Please try it out and let me know how it
goes.

Yes, this is a good time to remind me about, or update and re-send
patches that we were not able to handle in time for 2.4.23.

thanks,
-Len

<len.brown-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> (03/12/11 1.1063.46.61)
   [ACPI] Update Linux to ACPICA 20031203 (Bob Moore)
   
   Changed the initialization of Operation Regions during subsystem init
to
   perform two entire walks of the ACPI namespace; The first to
initialize
   the regions themselves, the second to execute the _REG methods.  This
   fixed some interdependencies across _REG methods found on some
machines.
   
   Fixed a problem where a Store(Local0, Local1) could simply update the
   object reference count, and not create a new copy of the object if
the
   Local1 is uninitialized.
   
   Implemented support for the _SST reserved method during sleep
   transitions.
   
   Implemented support to clear the SLP_TYP and SLP_EN bits when waking
up,
   this is apparently required by some machines.
   
   When sleeping, clear the wake status only if SleepState is not S5.
   
   Fixed a problem in AcpiRsExtendedIrqResource() where an incorrect
   pointer arithmetic advanced a string pointer too far.
   
   Fixed a problem in AcpiTbGetTablePtr() where a garbage pointer could
be
   returned if the requested table has not been loaded.
   
   Within the support for IRQ resources, restructured the handling of
the
   active and edge/level bits.
   
   Fixed a few problems in AcpiPsxExecute() where memory could be leaked
   under certain error conditions.
   
   Improved error messages for the cases where the ACPI mode could not
be
   entered.

<len.brown-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> (03/12/11 1.1063.46.60)
   [ACPI] update Linux to ACPICA 20031029 (Bob Moore)
   
   Fixed a problem where a level-triggered GPE with an associated _Lxx
   control method was incorrectly cleared twice.
   
   Fixed a problem with the Field support code where an access can occur
   beyond the end-of-region if the field is non-aligned but extends to
the
   very end of the parent region (resulted in an AE_AML_REGION_LIMIT
   exception.)
   
   Fixed a problem with ACPI Fixed Events where an RT Clock handler
would
   not get invoked on an RTC event.  The RTC event bitmasks for the PM1
   registers were not being initialized properly.
   
   Implemented support for executing _STA and _INI methods for Processor
   objects.  Although this is currently not part of the ACPI
specification,
   there is existing ASL code that depends on the init-time execution of
   these methods.
   
   Implemented and deployed a GetDescriptorName function to decode the
   various types of internal descriptors.  Guards against null
descriptors
   during debug output also.
   
   Implemented and deployed a GetNodeName function to extract the
   4-character namespace node name.  This function simplifies the debug
and
   error output, as well as guarding against null pointers during
output.
   
   Implemented and deployed the ACPI_FORMAT_UINT64 helper macro to
simplify
   the debug and error output of 64-bit integers.  This macro replaces
the
   HIDWORD and LODWORD macros for dumping these integers.
   
   Updated the implementation of the Stall() operator to only call
   AcpiOsStall(), and also return an error if the operand is larger than
   255.  This preserves the required behavior of not relinquishing the
   processor, as would happen if AcpiOsSleep() was called for "long
   stalls".
   
   Constructs of the form "Store(LocalX,LocalX)" where LocalX is not
   initialized are now treated as NOOPs.
   
   Cleaned up a handful of warnings during 64-bit generation.
   
   Fixed a reported error where and incorrect GPE number was passed to
the
   GPE dispatch handler.  This value is only used for error output,
   however.  Used this opportunity to clean up and streamline the GPE
   dispatch code.
