Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ACPI: update CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS description
Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2011 11:16:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1294629386.1866.50.camel@rui> (raw)
Update CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS description because the processor,
video and thermal zone procfs I/F have been removed.
Some ACPI drivers, e.g. button, have their procfs I/F always built in,
because we don't have sysfs I/F replacement at the moment.
But once we finish developing the sysfs I/F for these driver,
we need CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS to enabled/disable the corresponding procfs I/F.
So just updating the description rather than removing this option,
although there is no procfs I/F depends on it for now.

For backwards compatibility, this option allows
deprecated /proc/acpi/ files to exist, even when
they have been replaced by functions in /sys.
- The deprecated files (and their replacements) include:
- /proc/acpi/processor/*/throttling (/sys/class/thermal/
- cooling_device*/*)
- /proc/acpi/video/*/brightness (/sys/class/backlight/)
- /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/* (/sys/class/thermal/)
This option has no effect on /proc/acpi/ files
and functions which do not yet exist in /sys.
