Also, there is an ACPICA entry in MAINTAINERS with links to various places
where more information can be found.

That said it is a good idea to document the release process under
Documentation/acpi/.

[Lv Zheng] 
You can find ACPICA at: https://acpica.org.
Source code of ACPICA can be found at: https://github.com/acpica/acpica/

There is a process to convert ACPICA source code into Linux source code.
The release process happens almost monthly.
We call it as "ACPICA release".

And we call the difference of "Linuxized ACPICA" and "ACPICA in Linux" as 
divergences.
"Linuxized ACPICA" can be generated by the following commands:
  # git clone https://github.com/acpica/acpica
  # cd acpica
  # generate/linux/gen-repo.sh
"ACPICA in Linux" contains the following folders of Linux source tree:
  drivers/acpi/acpica
  include/acpi
  tools/power/acpi
These folders in fact are not maintained by human, but maintained by the ACPICA 
release automation.

ACPICA upstream uses a different coding style than Linux.
The last step of the release process is to execute "indent" using "linux" style 
(tuned --linux-style) to make the generated code somewhat compliant to the 
Linux coding style.
However, "indent" is not such a perfect tool.
If you execute indent with same options on the same input, you'll get same 
output.
While when you execute indent with same options on the same input that contains 
incremental changes, the output always may contain giant changes.
This is because "indent" make different decisions on indentation if the input 
is different.
While as you may know, there are still differences (about 500+ lines) between 
"Linux" and "ACPICA upstream".
So the "giant changes" now is inevitable.
In the release process, we use "diff -b" to ignore space changes in order not 
to generate giant changes every time ACPICA is released.
As you may sense from the above description, the release automation can be 
seriously affected by the accumulation of this kind of divergences.
The "Linuxized ACPICA patch" cannot be directly applied to Linux if such 
divergences are accumulated.
That's why we have to reduce it in order to make the release automation working.
So you can see a "divergence reduction" patch as the 1st patch in the ACPICA 
release series occasionally.
After applying this patch, the rest of the release patches can be done without 
human intervention.

Well, there are more rules and stories about ACPICA release process. :)

Yes.
This is a good idea.

Re: [PATCH 00/42] ACPICA: 20151218 Release

2016-01-02 Thread David Lang 
what is ACPICA and why should we care about divergence between it and the linux 
upstream? Where is it to be found?


This may be common knowlege to many people, but it should probably be documented 
in the patch bundle and it's explination.

The 20151218 ACPICA kernel-resident subsystem updates are linuxized based
on the linux-pm/linux-next branch.

The patchset has passed the following build/boot tests.
Build tests are performed as follows:
1. i386 + allyes
2. i386 + allno
3. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
4. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=n + ACPI_DEBUG=y
5. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUG=n + ACPI=y
6. i386 + default + ACPI=n
7. x86_64 + allyes
8. x86_64 + allno
9. x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
10.x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=n + ACPI_DEBUG=y
11.x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUG=n + ACPI=y
12.x86_64 + default + ACPI=n
Boot tests are performed as follows:
1. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
2. x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
Where:
1. i386: machine named as "Dell Inspiron Mini 1010"

Re: [PATCH 00/42] ACPICA: 20151218 Release

2016-01-02 Thread David Lang 
what is ACPICA and why should we care about divergence between it and the linux 
upstream? Where is it to be found?


This may be common knowlege to many people, but it should probably be documented 
in the patch bundle and it's explination.

Subject: [PATCH 00/42] ACPICA: 20151218 Release

The 20151218 ACPICA kernel-resident subsystem updates are linuxized based
on the linux-pm/linux-next branch.

The patchset has passed the following build/boot tests.
Build tests are performed as follows:
1. i386 + allyes
2. i386 + allno
3. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
4. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=n + ACPI_DEBUG=y
5. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUG=n + ACPI=y
6. i386 + default + ACPI=n
7. x86_64 + allyes
8. x86_64 + allno
9. x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
10.x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=n + ACPI_DEBUG=y
11.x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUG=n + ACPI=y
12.x86_64 + default + ACPI=n
Boot tests are performed as follows:
1. i386 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
2. x86_64 + default + ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
Where:
1. i386: machine named as "Dell Inspiron Mini 1010"
2. x86_64: machine named as "HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF PC"
3. default: kernel configuration with following items enabled:
  All hardware drivers related to the machines of i386/x86_64
  All "drivers/acpi" configurations
  All "drivers/platform" drivers
  All other drivers that link the APIs provided by ACPICA subsystem
