This interface is mainly intended (and implemented) for ACPI _PPC BIOS
frequency limitations, but other cpufreq drivers can also use it for
similar use-cases.
Why is this needed:
Currently it's not obvious why cpufreq got limited.
People see cpufreq/scaling_max_freq reduced, but this could have
happened by:
- any userspace prog writing to scaling_max_freq
- thermal limitations
- hardware (_PPC in ACPI case) limitiations
Therefore export bios_limit (in kHz) to:
- Point the user that it's the BIOS (broken or intended) which limits
frequency
- Export it as a sysfs interface for userspace progs.
While this was a rarely used feature on laptops, there will appear
more and more server implemenations providing "Green IT" features like
allowing the service processor to limit the frequency. People want
to know about HW/BIOS frequency limitations.
All ACPI P-state driven cpufreq drivers are covered with this patch:
- powernow-k8
- powernow-k7
- acpi-cpufreq
Tested with a patched DSDT which limits the first two cores (_PPC returns 1)
via _PPC, exposed by bios_limit:
# echo 2200000 >cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
# cat cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
2600000
2600000
2200000
2200000
# #scaling_max_freq shows general user/thermal/BIOS limitations
# cat cpu*/cpufreq/bios_limit
2600000
2600000
2800000
2800000
# #bios_limit only shows the HW/BIOS limitation

acpi_get_pci_dev() may be called for a non-PCI device, in which case
it should return NULL. However, it assumes that every handle it
finds in the ACPI CA name space, between given device handle and the
PCI root bridge handle, corresponds to a PCI-to-PCI bridge with an
existing secondary bus. For this reason, when it finds a struct
pci_dev object corresponding to one of them, it doesn't check if
its 'subordinate' field is a valid pointer. This obviously leads to
a NULL pointer dereference if acpi_get_pci_dev() is called for a
non-PCI device with a PCI parent which is not a bridge.
To fix this issue make acpi_get_pci_dev() check if pdev->subordinate
is not NULL for every device it finds on the path between the root
bridge and the device it's supposed to get to and return NULL if the
"target" device cannot be found.

The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The
device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom
API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If
not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example
"thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list).
I propose to reword the message to:
ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
it instead of the native driver
which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome.
I also added a message warning about possible problems and system
instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested
by Len.

This makes sure every acpi_device has at least one ID. If we build an
acpi_device for a namespace node with no _HID or _CID, we sometimes
synthesize an ID like "LNXCPU" or "LNXVIDEO". If we don't even have
that, give it a default "device" ID.
Note that this means things like:
/sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/HWP0001:00/HWP0002:04/device:00
(a PCI slot SxFy device) will have "hid" and "modprobe" entries, where
they didn't before. These aren't very useful (a HID of "device" doesn't
tell you what *kind* of device it is, so it doesn't help find a driver),
but I don't think they're harmful.

Besides removing some complicated code, this means we take advantage of the
namespace locking done by acpi_walk_namespace(). The locking isn't so
important at boot-time, but I hope to eventually use this same path to
handle hot-addition of devices, when it will be important.

This will also help remove the special case for adding the root node. We
currently add the root by hand before acpi_bus_scan(), but using a handle
here means we can start the acpi_bus_scan() directly with the root even
though it doesn't have an acpi_device yet.
