/proc/battery empty on Gateway 400VTX

/proc/battery empty on Gateway 400VTX

[Casey Harkins]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: TEXT/PLAIN, Size: 1532 bytes --]


Looking for help with getting ACPI battery monitoring to work on this
laptop. I'm running SourceMage GNU/Linux with:

	vanilla linux 2.4.22
	acpi 20030916 patch for 2.4.22
	dsdt-initrd patch v0.3 for 2.4.22

All other acpi functions seem to work (haven't tried suspending). Nothing
is reported when the battery module loads (it is being loaded between the
ac_adapter and button modules) and the /proc/battery directory exists but
is empty.

I tried dumping and fixing the dsdt. There was only 1 warning:

   dsdt.asl   281: Method(_WAK, 1) {
   Warning  2026 -           ^ Reserved method must return a value (_WAK)

I fixed this according to Richard Black's HOWTO and loaded it via the
initrd method using the dsdt-initrd patch listed above, though it seemed
to have no effect on the system.

There are some interesting errors in dmesg with or without the fixed dsdt.
Specifically:

---
evregion-0249 [22] ev_address_space_dispa: no handler for region(df5ecc68)
[EmbeddedControl]
 exfldio-0269 [21] ex_access_region      : Region EmbeddedControl(3) has
no handler
 psparse-1121: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.BAT0._STA] (Node
df5f1108), AE_NOT_EXIST
---

I've attached the dmesg outputs for both to this message along with the
original dsdt source. It might also be useful to know that 'pci=noacpi'
was passed to the kernel for both of these dmesg outputs. With 2.4.22
(but not 2.4.19) the onboard ethernet does not get an IRQ without passing
the pci=noacpi option.

Thanks in advance for any help/guidance.

RE: /proc/battery empty on Gateway 400VTX

[Li, Shaohua]

Hi,
   Your BIOS lacks ECDT. Maybe you should provide an ECDT according to EC device.

Thanks,
Shaohua

Subject: [ACPI] /proc/battery empty on Gateway 400VTX


Looking for help with getting ACPI battery monitoring to work on this
laptop. I'm running SourceMage GNU/Linux with:

	vanilla linux 2.4.22
	acpi 20030916 patch for 2.4.22
	dsdt-initrd patch v0.3 for 2.4.22

All other acpi functions seem to work (haven't tried suspending). Nothing
is reported when the battery module loads (it is being loaded between the
ac_adapter and button modules) and the /proc/battery directory exists but
is empty.

I tried dumping and fixing the dsdt. There was only 1 warning:

   dsdt.asl   281: Method(_WAK, 1) {
   Warning  2026 -           ^ Reserved method must return a value (_WAK)

I fixed this according to Richard Black's HOWTO and loaded it via the
initrd method using the dsdt-initrd patch listed above, though it seemed
to have no effect on the system.

There are some interesting errors in dmesg with or without the fixed dsdt.
Specifically:

---
evregion-0249 [22] ev_address_space_dispa: no handler for region(df5ecc68)
[EmbeddedControl]
 exfldio-0269 [21] ex_access_region      : Region EmbeddedControl(3) has
no handler
 psparse-1121: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.BAT0._STA] (Node
df5f1108), AE_NOT_EXIST
---

I've attached the dmesg outputs for both to this message along with the
original dsdt source. It might also be useful to know that 'pci=noacpi'
was passed to the kernel for both of these dmesg outputs. With 2.4.22
(but not 2.4.19) the onboard ethernet does not get an IRQ without passing
the pci=noacpi option.

Thanks in advance for any help/guidance.

Are you sure you have compiled embedded controller *not* as a module?

Yup (acpi portion of .config listed below). I also tried building all acpi
components into the kernel which didn't make a difference.

How would I go about doing this? I'll google around a bit and see what I
can figure out.

I tried using the pmtools acpidmp tool to dump the ecdt, but obviously
since the bios lacks one it doesn't dump one. I have no clue on how to
provide an ecdt for the ec device. I'm assuming this would involve getting
specs for the ec on this particular machine, writing asl describing the
ec, compiling and patching it into the kernel (similar to replacing bad
dsdt's). Am I on the right track here?

I dug around and found a few more details which may or may not help.

Gateway's specs for this laptop [1] state:

Bios:
        Advanced Configuration and Power Interface 1.0b (ACPI 1.0b)
        support

Battery type:
        Embedded controller inside to support smart battery

Power Management:
        Advanced Configuration and Power Interface 1.0b or later
        (ACPI 1.0b or later) support

I also found this [2] lkml post which suggests that ECDT is a feature of
ACPI 2.0 and that smart batteries are a 1.0 feature that aren't currently
supported in the Linux kernel. This message is from September 2002, so the
support for smart battery objects may have changed.

Anyway, is it possible that this notebook does not support acpi 2.0 and
therefore the only method for retrieving the battery status is through the
smart battery acpi 1.0 object?

I'm pretty much acpi ignorant at this point, so any help is appreciated.
I'll sit down and try to read over the specs this afternoon to see if I
can become less acpi ignorant!

RE: /proc/battery empty on Gateway 400VTX

[Li, Shaohua]

Because lack ECDT, your dmesg shows:
>evregion-0249 [22] ev_address_space_dispa: no handler for region(df5e4c68) [EmbeddedControl]
> exfldio-0269 [21] ex_access_region      : Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no handler
> psparse-1121: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.BAT0._STA] (Node df5e9108), AE_NOT_EXIST
so your /proc/acpi/battery is empty.

I can't find a tool to create an ECDT. But in your dsdt, I get:
>EC_CONTROL: 0x62
>EC_DATA: 0x66
>GPE: 29
>ID: \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.H_EC
Your ECDT should include above info. Manually create one?

Thanks,
Shaohua
