blacklisted with no SMBIOS

2007-09-13 Thread Ken MacLeod
What's the way forward if we have a current BIOS with ACPI but no SMBIOS? acpi=force works as expected. Is SMBIOS a requirement with ACPI? If not, what would a patch need to do to correctly identify a working ACPI without SMBIOS present to avoid the blacklist? Thanks, -- Ken - To

[PATCH] Configure cpuidle governors by default

2007-09-13 Thread Venki Pallipadi
Quoting Len Do not give an option to users to shoot themselves in the foot. Remove the configurability of ladder and menu governors as they are needed for default policy of cpuidle. That way users will not be able to have cpuidle without any policy loosing all C-state power savings.

[PATCH] Retain old acpi policy for !CONFIG_CPU_IDLE

2007-09-13 Thread Venki Pallipadi
Retain the old policy in processor_idle, so that when CPU_IDLE is not configured, old C-state policy will still be used. This provides a clean gradual migration path from old acpi policy to new cpuidle based policy. Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Index:

Re: [PATCH] [-mm] FS: file name must be unique in the same dir in procfs

From: Zhang Rui [EMAIL PROTECTED] File name should be unique in the same directory. In order to keep the back-compatibility, only a warning is given currently, but actions must be taken to fix it when such duplicates are detected. Bug report and a simple fix can be found here:

[PATCH]libata-acpi: add ACPI _PSx method

2007-09-13 Thread Shaohua Li
ACPI spec (ver 3.0a, p289) requires IDE power on/off executes ACPI _PSx methods. As recently most PATA drivers use libata, this patch adds _PSx method support in libata. ACPI spec doesn't mention if SATA requires the same _PSx method, but executing _PSx for SATA should be ok I think.

Subject: set _DOS to 0 by default From: Zhang Rui [EMAIL PROTECTED] Many ACPI machines currently reprogram the active display output automatically when the user presses the display toggle switch on the keyboard. However, this behavior violates the ACPI spec, because the system modifies some
