thinkpad-acpi: restrict access to some firmware LEDs

Some of the ThinkPad LEDs indicate critical conditions that can cause
data loss or cause hardware damage when ignored (e.g. force-ejecting
a powered up bay; ignoring a failing battery, or empty battery; force-
undocking with the dock buses still active, etc).

On almost all ThinkPads, LED access is write-only, and the firmware
usually does fire-and-forget signaling on them, so you effectively
lose whatever message the firmware was trying to convey to the user
when you override the LED state, without any chance to restore it.

Restrict access to all LEDs that can convey important alarms, or that
could mislead the user into incorrectly operating the hardware.  This
will make the Lenovo engineers less unhappy about the whole issue.

The HKEY disable functionality basically cripples the entire event

Remove this functionality from the driver.  HKEY must be enabled at

For sysfs, according to the sysfs ABI and the thinkpad-acpi sysfs
rules of engagement, we will just remove the attributes.  This will be
done in two stages: disable their function now, after two kernel
releases, remove the attributes.

For procfs, we call WARN().  If nothing triggers it, I will simply

the sysfs attributes.

Enable PNPACPI _PSx Support, v3

(This is an update to the patch presented earlier in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/8/284, with new error handling.)

This patch sets the power of PnP ACPI devices to D0 when they
are activated and to D3 when they are disabled.  The latter is
in correspondence with the ACPI 3.0 specification, whereas the
former is added in order to be able to power up a device after
it has been previously disabled (or when booting up a system).
(As a consequence, the patch makes the PnP ACPI code more ACPI
compliant.)

Section 6.2.2 of the ACPI Specification (at least versions 1.0b
and 3.0a) states: "Prior to running this control method [_DIS],
the OS[PM] will have already put the device in the D3 state."
Unfortunately, there is no clear statement as to when to put
a device in the D0 state. :-( Therefore, the patch executes the
method calls as _PS3/_DIS and _SRS/_PS0. What is clear: "If the
device is disabled, _SRS enables the device at the specified
resources." (From the ACPI 3.0a Specification.)

The patch fixes a problem with some IBM ThinkPads (at least the
600E and the 600X) where the serial ports have a dedicated
power source that needs to be brought up before the serial port
can be used.  Without this patch, the serial port is enabled
but has no power. (In the past, the tpctl utility had to be
utilized to turn on the power, but support for this feature
stopped with version 5.9 as it did not support the more recent
kernel versions.)

The error handlers that handle any errors that can occur during
the power up/power down phases return the error codes to the
caller directly.  Comments welcome! :-)

No regressions were observed on hardware that does not require
this patch.

The patch is applied against 2.6.27.x.

15 years agox86, PAT: Remove duplicate memtype reserve in pci mmap
Suresh Siddha [Fri, 3 Apr 2009 21:21:52 +0000 (14:21 -0700)]
x86, PAT: Remove duplicate memtype reserve in pci mmap

pci mmap code was doing memtype reserve for a while now. Recently we
added memtype tracking in remap_pfn_range, and pci code indirectly calls
remap_pfn_range. So, we don't need seperate tracking in pci code
anymore. Which means a patch that removes ~50 lines of code :-).

Also, recently we found out that the pci tracking is not working as we expect
it to work in some cases. Specifically, userlevel X mmap of pci, with some
recent version of X, is having a problem with vm_page_prot getting reset.
The pci tracking uses vm_page_prot to pass on the protection type from parent
to child during fork.
a) Parent does a pci mmap
b) We look at PAT and get either UC_MINUS or WC mapping for parent
c) Store that mapping type in vma vm_page_prot for future use
d) This thread does a fork
e) Fork results in mmap_ops ->open for the child process
f) We get the vm_page_prot from vma and reserve that type for the child process

But, between c) and e) above, the vma vm_page_prot is getting reset to zero.
This results in PAT reserve failing at the time of fork as in here.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123858163103240&w=2

This cleanup makes the above problem go away as we do not depend on
vm_page_prot in our PAT code anymore.

ocfs2: fix rare stale inode errors when exporting via nfs

For nfs exporting, ocfs2_get_dentry() returns the dentry for fh.
ocfs2_get_dentry() may read from disk when the inode is not in memory,
without any cross cluster lock. this leads to the file system loading a
stale inode.

This patch fixes above problem.

Solution is that in case of inode is not in memory, we get the cluster
lock(PR) of alloc inode where the inode in question is allocated from (this
causes node on which deletion is done sync the alloc inode) before reading
out the inode itsself. then we check the bitmap in the group (the inode in
question allcated from) to see if the bit is clear. if it's clear then it's
stale. if the bit is set, we then check generation as the existing code
does.

We have to read out the inode in question from disk first to know its alloc
slot and allot bit. And if its not stale we read it out using ocfs2_iget().
The second read should then be from cache.
