Subject: [PATCH v3 0/7] ACPI: Add _OST support for ACPI hotplug
Date: Fri, 11 May 2012 10:36:56 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1336754223-5346-1-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hp.com> (raw)

This patchset supports ACPI OSPM Status Indication (_OST) method for
ACPI CPU/memory/container hotplug operations and sysfs eject. After
ACPI hotplug operation has completed, OSPM calls _OST to indicate the
result of the operation to the platform. If _OST is not present, this
patchset has no effect on the platform.

This _OST support can be enabled or disabled with a new config option
CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_OST. This option is disabled by default. When
this option is disabled, this patchset has no effect on the platform.

Some platforms may require the OS to support _OST in order to support
ACPI hotplug operations. For example, if a platform has the management
console where user can request a hotplug operation from, this _OST
support would be required for the management console to show the result
of the hotplug request to user.

The _OST definition can be found in section 6.3.5 of ACPI 5.0 spec.
The HPPF spec below also describes hotplug flows with _OST.

  DIG64 Hot-Plug & Partitioning Flow (HPPF) Specification R1.0
  http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_HPPF_R1_0.pdf

The changes have been tested with simulated _OST methods.

v3:
 - Added more descriptions to the change logs.

v2:
 - Added CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_OST option. 
 - Added _OST support for container hotplug and sysfs eject.
 - Reordered patchset to enable _OST support bit of _OSC in the 
   last patch.
