The blink driver wakes up every jiffies which wastes power unnecessarily. Using a notifier gives same effect. Also add ability to unload module.

2007-05-31ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: do not use named sysfs groupsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
The initial version of the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface (not yet released in any stable mainline kernel) made liberal use of named sysfs groups, in order to get the attributes more organized. This proved to be a really bad design decision. Maybe if attribute groups were as flexible as a real directory, and if binary attributes were not second-class citizens, the idea of subdirs and named groups would not have been so bad. This patch makes all the thinkpad-acpi sysfs groups anonymous (thus removing the subdirs), adds the former group names as a prefix (so that hotkey/enable becomes hotkey_enable for example), and updates the documentation. These changes will make the thinkpad-acpi sysfs ABI a lot easier to maintain. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2007-05-10acpi,msi-laptop: Fall back to EC polling mode for MSI laptop specific EC ↵Lennart Poettering
commands The ACPI EC that is used in MSI laptops knows some non-standard commands for changing the screen brighntess and a few other things, which are used by the msi-laptop.c driver. Unfortunately for these commands no GPE events for IBF and OBF are triggered. Since nowadays the EC code uses the ec_intr=1 mode by default, this causes these operations to timeout, although they don't fail. In result, all operations that you can do with the msi-laptop.c driver take more or less 1s to complete, which is awfully slow. In one of the more recent kernels (2.6.20?) the EC subsystem has been revamped. With that change the EC timeout has been increased. before that increase the MSI EC accesses were slow -- but not *that* slow, hence I took notice of this limitation of the MSI EC hardware only very recently. The standard EC operations on the MSI EC as defined in the ACPI spec support GPE events properly. The following patch adds a new argument "force_poll" to the ec_transaction() function (and friends). If set to 1, the function will poll for IBF/OBF even if ec_intr=1 is enabled. If set to 0 the current behaviour is used. The msi-laptop driver is modified to make use of this new flag, so that OBF/IBF is polled for the special MSI EC transactions -- but only for them.

2007-05-02PCI: Cleanup the includes of <linux/pci.h>Jean Delvare
I noticed that many source files include <linux/pci.h> while they do not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up. In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all files including <linux/pci.h> but without any other occurence of "pci" or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the false positives manually. My tests covered 66% of the affected files, so there could be false positives remaining. Untested files are: arch/alpha/kernel/err_common.c arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev6.c arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev7.c arch/ia64/sn/kernel/huberror.c arch/ia64/sn/kernel/xpnet.c arch/m68knommu/kernel/dma.c arch/mips/lib/iomap.c arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/ras.c arch/ppc/8260_io/enet.c arch/ppc/8260_io/fcc_enet.c arch/ppc/8xx_io/enet.c arch/ppc/syslib/ppc4xx_sgdma.c arch/sh64/mach-cayman/iomap.c arch/xtensa/kernel/xtensa_ksyms.c arch/xtensa/platform-iss/setup.c drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-at91.c drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c drivers/media/video/saa711x.c drivers/misc/hdpuftrs/hdpu_cpustate.c drivers/misc/hdpuftrs/hdpu_nexus.c drivers/net/au1000_eth.c drivers/net/fec_8xx/fec_main.c drivers/net/fec_8xx/fec_mii.c drivers/net/fs_enet/fs_enet-main.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-fcc.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-fec.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-scc.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mii-bitbang.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mii-fec.c drivers/net/ibm_emac/ibm_emac_core.c drivers/net/lasi_82596.c drivers/parisc/hppb.c drivers/sbus/sbus.c drivers/video/g364fb.c drivers/video/platinumfb.c drivers/video/stifb.c drivers/video/valkyriefb.c include/asm-arm/arch-ixp4xx/dma.h sound/oss/au1550_ac97.c I would welcome test reports for these files. I am fine with removing the untested files from the patch if the general opinion is that these changes aren't safe. The tested part would still be nice to have.

2007-04-28ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add a fan-control feature master toggleHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Len Brown considers that an active by default fan control interface in laptops may be too close to giving users enough rope. There is a good chance he is quite correct on this, especially if someone decides to use that interface in applets and users are not aware of its risks. This patch adds a master switch to thinkpad-acpi that enables or disables the entire fan-control feature as a module parameter: "fan_control". It defaults to disabled. Set it to non-zero to enable fan control. Also, the patch removes the expermiental status from fan control, since it is stable enough to not be called experimental, and the master switch makes it safe enough to do so.
