Previously, we were only able to use an integer index to find +the corresponding GPIO, which is pretty error prone (it depends on +the _CRS output ordering, for example). + +With _DSD we can now query GPIOs using a name instead of an integer +index, like the ASL example below shows: + + // Bluetooth device with reset and shutdown GPIOs + Device (BTH) + { + Name (_HID, ...) + + Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () + { + GpioIo (Exclusive, PullUp, 0, 0, IoRestrictionInputOnly, + "\\_SB.GPO0", 0, ResourceConsumer) {15} + GpioIo (Exclusive, PullUp, 0, 0, IoRestrictionInputOnly, + "\\_SB.GPO0", 0, ResourceConsumer) {27, 31} + }) + + Name (_DSD, Package () + { + ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"), + Package () + { + Package () {"reset-gpio", Package() {^BTH, 1, 1, 0 }}, + Package () {"shutdown-gpio", Package() {^BTH, 0, 0, 0 }}, + } + }) + } + +The format of the supported GPIO property is: + + Package () { "name", Package () { ref, index, pin, active_low }} + + ref - The device that has _CRS containing GpioIo()/GpioInt() resources, + typically this is the device itself (BTH in our case). + index - Index of the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource in _CRS starting from zero. + pin - Pin in the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource. Typically this is zero. + active_low - If 1 the GPIO is marked as active_low. + +Since ACPI GpioIo() resource does not have a field saying whether it is +active low or high, the "active_low" argument can be used here. Setting +it to 1 marks the GPIO as active low. + +In our Bluetooth example the "reset-gpio" refers to the second GpioIo() +resource, second pin in that resource with the GPIO number of 31. + +ACPI GPIO Mappings Provided by Drivers +-------------------------------------- + +There are systems in which the ACPI tables do not contain _DSD but provide _CRS +with GpioIo()/GpioInt() resources and device drivers still need to work with +them. + +In those cases ACPI device identification objects, _HID, _CID, _CLS, _SUB, _HRV, +available to the driver can be used to identify the device and that is supposed +to be sufficient to determine the meaning and purpose of all of the GPIO lines +listed by the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resources returned by _CRS. In other words, +the driver is supposed to know what to use the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resources for +once it has identified the device. Having done that, it can simply assign names +to the GPIO lines it is going to use and provide the GPIO subsystem with a +mapping between those names and the ACPI GPIO resources corresponding to them. + +To do that, the driver needs to define a mapping table as a NULL-terminated +array of struct acpi_gpio_mapping objects that each contain a name, a pointer +to an array of line data (struct acpi_gpio_params) objects and the size of that +array. Each struct acpi_gpio_params object consists of three fields, +crs_entry_index, line_index, active_low, representing the index of the target +GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource in _CRS starting from zero, the index of the target +line in that resource starting from zero, and the active-low flag for that line, +respectively, in analogy with the _DSD GPIO property format specified above. + +For the example Bluetooth device discussed previously the data structures in +question would look like this: + +static const struct acpi_gpio_params reset_gpio = { 1, 1, false }; +static const struct acpi_gpio_params shutdown_gpio = { 0, 0, false }; + +static const struct acpi_gpio_mapping bluetooth_acpi_gpios[] = { + { "reset-gpio", &reset_gpio, 1 }, + { "shutdown-gpio", &shutdown_gpio, 1 }, + { }, +}; + +Next, the mapping table needs to be passed as the second argument to +acpi_dev_add_driver_gpios() that will register it with the ACPI device object +pointed to by its first argument. That should be done in the driver's .probe() +routine. On removal, the driver should unregister its GPIO mapping table by +calling acpi_dev_remove_driver_gpios() on the ACPI device object where that +table was previously registered. diff --git a/Documentation/cpu-freq/intel-pstate.txt b/Documentation/cpu-freq/intel-pstate.txt index a69ffe1d54d5..765d7fc0e692 100644 --- a/Documentation/cpu-freq/intel-pstate.txt +++ b/Documentation/cpu-freq/intel-pstate.txt @@ -1,17 +1,28 @@ Intel P-state driver -------------------- -This driver implements a scaling driver with an internal governor for -Intel Core processors.
