pm+acpi-4.5-rc1-1
a889f766 · ·Power management and ACPI updates for v4.5-rc1 - Add a debugfs-based interface for interacting with the ACPICA's AML debugger introduced in the previous cycle and a new user space tool for that, fix some bugs related to the AML debugger and clean up the code in question (Lv Zheng, Dan Carpenter, Colin Ian King, Markus Elfring). - Update ACPICA to upstream revision 20151218 including a number of fixes and cleanups in the ACPICA core (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, Labbe Corentin, Prarit Bhargava, Colin Ian King, David E Box, Rafael Wysocki). In particular, the previously added erroneous support for the _SUB object is dropped, the concatenate operator will support all ACPI objects now, the Debug Object handling is improved, the SuperName handling of parameters being control methods is fixed, the ObjectType operator handling is updated to follow ACPI 5.0A and the handling of CondRefOf and RefOf is updated accordingly, module-level code will be executed after loading each ACPI table now (instead of being run once after all tables containing AML have been loaded), the Operation Region handlers management is updated to fix some reported problems and a the ACPICA code in the kernel is more in line with the upstream now. - Update the ACPI backlight driver to provide information on whether or not it will generate key-presses for brightness change hotkeys and update some platform drivers (dell-wmi, thinkpad_acpi) to use that information to avoid sending double key-events to users pace for these, add new ACPI backlight quirks (Hans de Goede, Aaron Lu, Adrien Schildknecht). - Improve the ACPI handling of interrupt GPIOs (Christophe Ricard). - Fix the handling of the list of device IDs of device objects found in the ACPI namespace and add a helper for checking if there is a device object for a given device ID (Lukas Wunner). - Change the logic in the ACPI namespace scanning code to create struct acpi_device objects for all ACPI device objects found in the namespace even if _STA fails for them which helps to avoid device enumeration problems on Microsoft Surface 3 (Aaron Lu). - Add support for the APM X-Gene ACPI I2C device to the ACPI driver for AMD SoCs (Loc Ho). - Fix the long-standing issue with the DMA controller on Intel SoCs where ACPI tables have no power management support for the DMA controller itself, but it can be powered off automatically when the last (other) device on the SoC is powered off via ACPI and clean up the ACPI driver for Intel SoCs (acpi-lpss) after previous attempts to fix that problem (Andy Shevchenko). - Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Andy Lutomirski, Colin Ian King, Javier Martinez Canillas, Ken Xue, Mathias Krause, Rafael Wysocki, Sinan Kaya). - Update the device properties framework for better handling of built-in properties, add support for built-in properties to the platform bus type, update the MFD subsystem's handling of device properties and add support for passing default configuration data as device properties to the intel-lpss MFD drivers, convert the designware I2C driver to use the unified device properties API and add a fallback mechanism for using default built-in properties if the platform firmware fails to provide the properties as expected by drivers (Andy Shevchenko, Mika Westerberg, Heikki Krogerus, Andrew Morton). - Add new Device Tree bindings to the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework and update the exynos4412 DT binding accordingly, introduce debugfs support for the OPP framework (Viresh Kumar, Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz). - Migrate the mt8173 cpufreq driver to the new OPP bindings (Pi-Cheng Chen). - Update the cpufreq core to make the handling of governors more efficient, especially on systems where policy objects are shared between multiple CPUs (Viresh Kumar, Rafael Wysocki). - Fix cpufreq governor handling on configurations with CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC set (Chen Yu). - Clean up the cpufreq core code related to the boost sysfs knob support and update the ACPI cpufreq driver accordingly (Rafael Wysocki). - Add a new cpufreq driver for ST platforms and corresponding Device Tree bindings (Lee Jones). - Update the intel_pstate driver to allow the P-state selection algorithm used by it to depend on the CPU ID of the processor it is running on, make it use a special P-state selection algorithm (with an IO wait time compensation tweak) on Atom CPUs based on the Airmont and Silvermont cores so as to reduce their energy consumption and improve intel_pstate documentation (Philippe Longepe, Srinivas Pandruvada). - Update the cpufreq-dt driver to support registering cooling devices that use the (P * V^2 * f) dynamic power draw formula where V is the voltage, f is the frequency and P is a constant coefficient provided by Device Tree and update the arm_big_little cpufreq driver to use that support (Punit Agrawal). - Assorted cpufreq driver (cpufreq-dt, qoriq, pcc-cpufreq, blackfin-cpufreq) updates (Andrzej Hajda, Hongtao Jia, Jacob Tanenbaum, Markus Elfring). - cpuidle core tweaks related to polling and measured_us calculation (Rik van Riel). - Removal of modularity from a few cpuidle drivers (clps711x, ux500, exynos) that cannot be built as modules in practice (Paul Gortmaker). - PM core update to prevent devices from being probed during system suspend/resume which is generally problematic and may lead to inconsistent behavior (Grygorii Strashko). - Assorted updates of the PM core and related code (Julia Lawall, Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard, Maruthi Bayyavarapu, Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson). - PNP bus type updates (Christophe Le Roy, Heiner Kallweit). - PCI PM code cleanups (Jarkko Nikula, Julia Lawall). - cpupower tool updates (Jacob Tanenbaum, Thomas Renninger). /

sound-4.4
3f37b26f · ·sound fixes for 4.4 A slightly higher volume than a new year's wish, but not too worrisome: a large LOC is only for HD-audio device-specific quirks, so fairly safe to apply. The rest ASoC fixes are all trivial and small; a simple replacement of mutex call with nested lock version, a few Arizona and Realtek codec fixes, and a regression fix for Skylake firmware handling.
