APEI Error INJection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EINJ provides a hardware error injection mechanism
It is very useful for debugging and testing of other APEI and RAS features.
To use EINJ, make sure the following are enabled in your kernel
configuration:
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS
CONFIG_ACPI_APEI
CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_EINJ
The user interface of EINJ is debug file system, under the
directory apei/einj. The following files are provided.
- available_error_type
Reading this file returns the error injection capability of the
platform, that is, which error types are supported. The error type
definition is as follow, the left field is the error type value, the
right field is error description.
0x00000001 Processor Correctable
0x00000002 Processor Uncorrectable non-fatal
0x00000004 Processor Uncorrectable fatal
0x00000008 Memory Correctable
0x00000010 Memory Uncorrectable non-fatal
0x00000020 Memory Uncorrectable fatal
0x00000040 PCI Express Correctable
0x00000080 PCI Express Uncorrectable fatal
0x00000100 PCI Express Uncorrectable non-fatal
0x00000200 Platform Correctable
0x00000400 Platform Uncorrectable non-fatal
0x00000800 Platform Uncorrectable fatal
The format of file contents are as above, except there are only the
available error type lines.
- error_type
This file is used to set the error type value. The error type value
is defined in "available_error_type" description.
- error_inject
Write any integer to this file to trigger the error
injection. Before this, please specify all necessary error
parameters.
- param1
This file is used to set the first error parameter value. Effect of
parameter depends on error_type specified.
- param2
This file is used to set the second error parameter value. Effect of
parameter depends on error_type specified.
- notrigger
The EINJ mechanism is a two step process. First inject the error, then
perform some actions to trigger it. Setting "notrigger" to 1 skips the
trigger phase, which *may* allow the user to cause the error in some other
context by a simple access to the cpu, memory location, or device that is
the target of the error injection. Whether this actually works depends
on what operations the BIOS actually includes in the trigger phase.
BIOS versions based in the ACPI 4.0 specification have limited options
to control where the errors are injected. Your BIOS may support an
extension (enabled with the param_extension=1 module parameter, or
boot command line einj.param_extension=1). This allows the address
and mask for memory injections to be specified by the param1 and
param2 files in apei/einj.
BIOS versions using the ACPI 5.0 specification have more control over
the target of the injection. For processor related errors (type 0x1,
0x2 and 0x4) the APICID of the target should be provided using the
param1 file in apei/einj. For memory errors (type 0x8, 0x10 and 0x20)
the address is set using param1 with a mask in param2 (0x0 is equivalent
to all ones). For PCI express errors (type 0x40, 0x80 and 0x100) the
segment, bus, device and function are specified using param1:
31 24 23 16 15 11 10 8 7 0
+-------------------------------------------------+
| segment | bus | device | function | reserved |
+-------------------------------------------------+
An ACPI 5.0 BIOS may also allow vendor specific errors to be injected.
In this case a file named vendor will contain identifying information
from the BIOS that hopefully will allow an application wishing to use
the vendor specific extension to tell that they are running on a BIOS
that supports it. All vendor extensions have the 0x80000000 bit set in
error_type. A file vendor_flags controls the interpretation of param1
and param2 (1 = PROCESSOR, 2 = MEMORY, 4 = PCI). See your BIOS vendor
documentation for details (and expect changes to this API if vendors
creativity in using this feature expands beyond our expectations).
Example:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/apei/einj
# cat available_error_type # See which errors can be injected
0x00000002 Processor Uncorrectable non-fatal
0x00000008 Memory Correctable
0x00000010 Memory Uncorrectable non-fatal
# echo 0x12345000 > param1 # Set memory address for injection
# echo 0xfffffffffffff000 > param2 # Mask - anywhere in this page
# echo 0x8 > error_type # Choose correctable memory error
# echo 1 > error_inject # Inject now
For more information about EINJ, please refer to ACPI specification
version 4.0, section 17.5 and ACPI 5.0, section 18.6.

ACPI Debug Output
The ACPI CA, the Linux ACPI core, and some ACPI drivers can generate debug
output. This document describes how to use this facility.
Compile-time configuration
--------------------------
ACPI debug output is globally enabled by CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG. If this config
option is turned off, the debug messages are not even built into the
kernel.
Boot- and run-time configuration
--------------------------------
When CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y, you can select the component and level of messages
you're interested in. At boot-time, use the acpi.debug_layer and
acpi.debug_level kernel command line options. After boot, you can use the
debug_layer and debug_level files in /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ to control
the debug messages.
debug_layer (component)
-----------------------
The "debug_layer" is a mask that selects components of interest, e.g., a
specific driver or part of the ACPI interpreter. To build the debug_layer
bitmask, look for the "#define _COMPONENT" in an ACPI source file.
You can set the debug_layer mask at boot-time using the acpi.debug_layer
command line argument, and you can change it after boot by writing values
to /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer.
The possible components are defined in include/acpi/acoutput.h and
include/acpi/acpi_drivers.h. Reading /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer
shows the supported mask values, currently these:
ACPI_UTILITIES 0x00000001
ACPI_HARDWARE 0x00000002
ACPI_EVENTS 0x00000004

ACPI_VIDEO_COMPONENT 0x10000000
ACPI_PROCESSOR_COMPONENT 0x20000000
debug_level
-----------
The "debug_level" is a mask that selects different types of messages, e.g.,
those related to initialization, method execution, informational messages, etc.
To build debug_level, look at the level specified in an ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT()
statement.
The ACPI interpreter uses several different levels, but the Linux
ACPI core and ACPI drivers generally only use ACPI_LV_INFO.
You can set the debug_level mask at boot-time using the acpi.debug_level
command line argument, and you can change it after boot by writing values
to /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level.
The possible levels are defined in include/acpi/acoutput.h. Reading
/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level shows the supported mask values,
currently these:
ACPI_LV_INIT 0x00000001

Examples
--------
For example, drivers/acpi/bus.c contains this:
#define _COMPONENT ACPI_BUS_COMPONENT
...
ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT((ACPI_DB_INFO, "Device insertion detected\n"));
To turn on this message, set the ACPI_BUS_COMPONENT bit in acpi.debug_layer
and the ACPI_LV_INFO bit in acpi.debug_level. (The ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT
statement uses ACPI_DB_INFO, which is macro based on the ACPI_LV_INFO
definition.)
Enable all AML "Debug" output (stores to the Debug object while interpreting
AML) during boot:
acpi.debug_layer=0xffffffff acpi.debug_level=0x2
Enable PCI and PCI interrupt routing debug messages:
acpi.debug_layer=0x400000 acpi.debug_level=0x4
Enable all ACPI hardware-related messages:
acpi.debug_layer=0x2 acpi.debug_level=0xffffffff
Enable all ACPI_DB_INFO messages after boot:
# echo 0x4 > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level
Show all valid component values:
# cat /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer

ACPI based device enumeration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ACPI 5 introduced a set of new resources (UartTSerialBus, I2cSerialBus,
SpiSerialBus, GpioIo and GpioInt) which can be used in enumerating slave
devices behind serial bus controllers.
In addition we are starting to see peripherals integrated in the
SoC/Chipset to appear only in ACPI namespace. These are typically devices
that are accessed through memory-mapped registers.
In order to support this and re-use the existing drivers as much as
possible we decided to do following:
o Devices that have no bus connector resource are represented as
platform devices.
o Devices behind real busses where there is a connector resource
are represented as struct spi_device or struct i2c_device
(standard UARTs are not busses so there is no struct uart_device).
As both ACPI and Device Tree represent a tree of devices (and their
resources) this implementation follows the Device Tree way as much as
possible.
The ACPI implementation enumerates devices behind busses (platform, SPI and
I2C), creates the physical devices and binds them to their ACPI handle in
the ACPI namespace.
This means that when ACPI_HANDLE(dev) returns non-NULL the device was
enumerated from ACPI namespace. This handle can be used to extract other
device-specific configuration. There is an example of this below.
Platform bus support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since we are using platform devices to represent devices that are not
connected to any physical bus we only need to implement a platform driver
for the device and add supported ACPI IDs. If this same IP-block is used on
some other non-ACPI platform, the driver might work out of the box or needs
some minor changes.
Adding ACPI support for an existing driver should be pretty
straightforward. Here is the simplest example:
#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
static struct acpi_device_id mydrv_acpi_match[] = {
/* ACPI IDs here */
{ }
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, mydrv_acpi_match);
#endif
static struct platform_driver my_driver = {
...
.driver = {
.acpi_match_table = ACPI_PTR(mydrv_acpi_match),
},
};
If the driver needs to perform more complex initialization like getting and
configuring GPIOs it can get its ACPI handle and extract this information
from ACPI tables.
Currently the kernel is not able to automatically determine from which ACPI
device it should make the corresponding platform device so we need to add
the ACPI device explicitly to acpi_platform_device_ids list defined in
drivers/acpi/acpi_platform.c. This limitation is only for the platform
devices, SPI and I2C devices are created automatically as described below.
DMA support
~~~~~~~~~~~
DMA controllers enumerated via ACPI should be registered in the system to
provide generic access to their resources. For example, a driver that would
like to be accessible to slave devices via generic API call
dma_request_slave_channel() must register itself at the end of the probe
function like this:
err = devm_acpi_dma_controller_register(dev, xlate_func, dw);
/* Handle the error if it's not a case of !CONFIG_ACPI */
and implement custom xlate function if needed (usually acpi_dma_simple_xlate()
is enough) which converts the FixedDMA resource provided by struct
acpi_dma_spec into the corresponding DMA channel. A piece of code for that case
could look like:
#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
struct filter_args {
/* Provide necessary information for the filter_func */
...
};
static bool filter_func(struct dma_chan *chan, void *param)
{
/* Choose the proper channel */
...
}
static struct dma_chan *xlate_func(struct acpi_dma_spec *dma_spec,
struct acpi_dma *adma)
{
dma_cap_mask_t cap;
struct filter_args args;
/* Prepare arguments for filter_func */
...
return dma_request_channel(cap, filter_func, &args);
}
#else
static struct dma_chan *xlate_func(struct acpi_dma_spec *dma_spec,
struct acpi_dma *adma)
{
return NULL;
}
#endif
dma_request_slave_channel() will call xlate_func() for each registered DMA
controller. In the xlate function the proper channel must be chosen based on
information in struct acpi_dma_spec and the properties of the controller
provided by struct acpi_dma.
Clients must call dma_request_slave_channel() with the string parameter that
corresponds to a specific FixedDMA resource. By default "tx" means the first
entry of the FixedDMA resource array, "rx" means the second entry. The table
below shows a layout:
Device (I2C0)
{
...
Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)
{
Name (DBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
{
FixedDMA (0x0018, 0x0004, Width32bit, _Y48)
FixedDMA (0x0019, 0x0005, Width32bit, )
})
...
}
}
So, the FixedDMA with request line 0x0018 is "tx" and next one is "rx" in
this example.
In robust cases the client unfortunately needs to call
acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index() directly and therefore choose the
specific FixedDMA resource by its index.
SPI serial bus support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Slave devices behind SPI bus have SpiSerialBus resource attached to them.
This is extracted automatically by the SPI core and the slave devices are
enumerated once spi_register_master() is called by the bus driver.
Here is what the ACPI namespace for a SPI slave might look like:
Device (EEP0)
{
Name (_ADR, 1)
Name (_CID, Package() {
"ATML0025",
"AT25",
})
...
Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)
{
SPISerialBus(1, PolarityLow, FourWireMode, 8,
ControllerInitiated, 1000000, ClockPolarityLow,
ClockPhaseFirst, "\\_SB.PCI0.SPI1",)
}
...
The SPI device drivers only need to add ACPI IDs in a similar way than with
the platform device drivers. Below is an example where we add ACPI support
to at25 SPI eeprom driver (this is meant for the above ACPI snippet):
#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
static struct acpi_device_id at25_acpi_match[] = {
{ "AT25", 0 },
{ },
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, at25_acpi_match);
#endif
static struct spi_driver at25_driver = {
.driver = {
...
.acpi_match_table = ACPI_PTR(at25_acpi_match),
},
};
Note that this driver actually needs more information like page size of the
eeprom etc. but at the time writing this there is no standard way of
passing those. One idea is to return this in _DSM method like:
Device (EEP0)
{
...
Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
{
Store (Package (6)
{
"byte-len", 1024,
"addr-mode", 2,
"page-size, 32
}, Local0)
// Check UUIDs etc.
Return (Local0)
}
Then the at25 SPI driver can get this configation by calling _DSM on its
ACPI handle like:
struct acpi_buffer output = { ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER, NULL };
struct acpi_object_list input;
acpi_status status;
/* Fill in the input buffer */
status = acpi_evaluate_object(ACPI_HANDLE(&spi->dev), "_DSM",
&input, &output);
if (ACPI_FAILURE(status))
/* Handle the error */
/* Extract the data here */
kfree(output.pointer);
I2C serial bus support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The slaves behind I2C bus controller only need to add the ACPI IDs like
with the platform and SPI drivers. However the I2C bus controller driver
needs to call acpi_i2c_register_devices() after it has added the adapter.
An I2C bus (controller) driver does:
...
ret = i2c_add_numbered_adapter(adapter);
if (ret)
/* handle error */
of_i2c_register_devices(adapter);
/* Enumerate the slave devices behind this bus via ACPI */
acpi_i2c_register_devices(adapter);
Below is an example of how to add ACPI support to the existing mpu3050
input driver:
#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
static struct acpi_device_id mpu3050_acpi_match[] = {
{ "MPU3050", 0 },
{ },
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, mpu3050_acpi_match);
#endif
static struct i2c_driver mpu3050_i2c_driver = {
.driver = {
.name = "mpu3050",
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.pm = &mpu3050_pm,
.of_match_table = mpu3050_of_match,
.acpi_match_table ACPI_PTR(mpu3050_acpi_match),
},
.probe = mpu3050_probe,
.remove = mpu3050_remove,
.id_table = mpu3050_ids,
};
GPIO support
~~~~~~~~~~~~
ACPI 5 introduced two new resources to describe GPIO connections: GpioIo
and GpioInt. These resources are used be used to pass GPIO numbers used by
the device to the driver. For example:
Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)
{
Name (SBUF, ResourceTemplate()
{
...
// Used to power on/off the device
GpioIo (Exclusive, PullDefault, 0x0000, 0x0000,
IoRestrictionOutputOnly, "\\_SB.PCI0.GPI0",
0x00, ResourceConsumer,,)
{
// Pin List
0x0055
}
// Interrupt for the device
GpioInt (Edge, ActiveHigh, ExclusiveAndWake, PullNone,
0x0000, "\\_SB.PCI0.GPI0", 0x00, ResourceConsumer,,)
{
// Pin list
0x0058
}
...
}
Return (SBUF)
}
These GPIO numbers are controller relative and path "\\_SB.PCI0.GPI0"
specifies the path to the controller. In order to use these GPIOs in Linux
we need to translate them to the Linux GPIO numbers.
The driver can do this by including <linux/acpi_gpio.h> and then calling
acpi_get_gpio(path, gpio). This will return the Linux GPIO number or
negative errno if there was no translation found.
In a simple case of just getting the Linux GPIO number from device
resources one can use acpi_get_gpio_by_index() helper function. It takes
pointer to the device and index of the GpioIo/GpioInt descriptor in the
device resources list. For example:
int gpio_irq, gpio_power;
int ret;
gpio_irq = acpi_get_gpio_by_index(dev, 1, NULL);
if (gpio_irq < 0)
/* handle error */
gpio_power = acpi_get_gpio_by_index(dev, 0, NULL);
if (gpio_power < 0)

/* Now we can use the GPIO numbers */
Other GpioIo parameters must be converted first by the driver to be
suitable to the gpiolib before passing them.
In case of GpioInt resource an additional call to gpio_to_irq() must be
done before calling request_irq().

Overriding ACPI tables via initrd
=================================
1) Introduction (What is this about)
2) What is this for
3) How does it work
4) References (Where to retrieve userspace tools)
1) What is this about
---------------------
If the ACPI_INITRD_TABLE_OVERRIDE compile option is true, it is possible to
override nearly any ACPI table provided by the BIOS with an instrumented,
modified one.
For a full list of ACPI tables that can be overridden, take a look at
the char *table_sigs[MAX_ACPI_SIGNATURE]; definition in drivers/acpi/osl.c
All ACPI tables iasl (Intel's ACPI compiler and disassembler) knows should
be overridable, except:
- ACPI_SIG_RSDP (has a signature of 6 bytes)
- ACPI_SIG_FACS (does not have an ordinary ACPI table header)
Both could get implemented as well.
2) What is this for
-------------------
Please keep in mind that this is a debug option.
ACPI tables should not get overridden for productive use.
If BIOS ACPI tables are overridden the kernel will get tainted with the
TAINT_OVERRIDDEN_ACPI_TABLE flag.
Complain to your platform/BIOS vendor if you find a bug which is so sever
that a workaround is not accepted in the Linux kernel.
Still, it can and should be enabled in any kernel, because:
- There is no functional change with not instrumented initrds
- It provides a powerful feature to easily debug and test ACPI BIOS table
compatibility with the Linux kernel.
3) How does it work
-------------------
# Extract the machine's ACPI tables:
cd /tmp
acpidump >acpidump
acpixtract -a acpidump
# Disassemble, modify and recompile them:
iasl -d *.dat
# For example add this statement into a _PRT (PCI Routing Table) function
# of the DSDT:
Store("HELLO WORLD", debug)
iasl -sa dsdt.dsl
# Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
# They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the
# cpio archive.
# The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first.
# Other, typically compressed cpio archives, must be
# concatenated on top of the uncompressed one.
mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
cp dsdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
# A maximum of: #define ACPI_OVERRIDE_TABLES 10
# tables are currently allowed (see osl.c):
iasl -sa facp.dsl
iasl -sa ssdt1.dsl
cp facp.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
cp ssdt1.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
# Create the uncompressed cpio archive and concatenate the original initrd
# on top:
find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
# reboot with increased acpi debug level, e.g. boot params:
acpi.debug_level=0x2 acpi.debug_layer=0xFFFFFFFF
# and check your syslog:
[ 1.268089] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0._PRT]
[ 1.272091] [ACPI Debug] String [0x0B] "HELLO WORLD"
iasl is able to disassemble and recompile quite a lot different,
also static ACPI tables.
4) Where to retrieve userspace tools
------------------------------------
iasl and acpixtract are part of Intel's ACPICA project:
http://acpica.org/
and should be packaged by distributions (for example in the acpica package
on SUSE).
acpidump can be found in Len Browns pmtools:
ftp://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/acpidump
This tool is also part of the acpica package on SUSE.
Alternatively, used ACPI tables can be retrieved via sysfs in latest kernels:
/sys/firmware/acpi/tables

Linux ACPI Custom Control Method How To
=======================================
Written by Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>
Linux supports customizing ACPI control methods at runtime.
Users can use this to
1. override an existing method which may not work correctly,
or just for debugging purposes.
2. insert a completely new method in order to create a missing
method such as _OFF, _ON, _STA, _INI, etc.
For these cases, it is far simpler to dynamically install a single
control method rather than override the entire DSDT, because kernel
rebuild/reboot is not needed and test result can be got in minutes.
Note: Only ACPI METHOD can be overridden, any other object types like
"Device", "OperationRegion", are not recognized.
Note: The same ACPI control method can be overridden for many times,
and it's always the latest one that used by Linux/kernel.
Note: To get the ACPI debug object output (Store (AAAA, Debug)),
please run "echo 1 > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/aml_debug_output".
1. override an existing method
a) get the ACPI table via ACPI sysfs I/F. e.g. to get the DSDT,
just run "cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT > /tmp/dsdt.dat"
b) disassemble the table by running "iasl -d dsdt.dat".
c) rewrite the ASL code of the method and save it in a new file,
d) package the new file (psr.asl) to an ACPI table format.
Here is an example of a customized \_SB._AC._PSR method,
DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 1, "", "", 0x20080715)
{
External (ACON)
Method (\_SB_.AC._PSR, 0, NotSerialized)
{
Store ("In AC _PSR", Debug)
Return (ACON)
}
}
Note that the full pathname of the method in ACPI namespace
should be used.
And remember to use "External" to declare external objects.
e) assemble the file to generate the AML code of the method.
e.g. "iasl psr.asl" (psr.aml is generated as a result)
f) mount debugfs by "mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug"
g) override the old method via the debugfs by running
"cat /tmp/psr.aml > /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method"
2. insert a new method
This is easier than overriding an existing method.
We just need to create the ASL code of the method we want to
insert and then follow the step c) ~ g) in section 1.
3. undo your changes
The "undo" operation is not supported for a new inserted method
right now, i.e. we can not remove a method currently.
For an overrided method, in order to undo your changes, please
save a copy of the method original ASL code in step c) section 1,
and redo step c) ~ g) to override the method with the original one.
Note: We can use a kernel with multiple custom ACPI method running,
But each individual write to debugfs can implement a SINGLE
method override. i.e. if we want to insert/override multiple
ACPI methods, we need to redo step c) ~ g) for multiple times.
Note: Be aware that root can mis-use this driver to modify arbitrary
memory and gain additional rights, if root's privileges got
restricted (for example if root is not allowed to load additional
modules after boot).

ACPI Scan Handlers
Copyright (C) 2012, Intel Corporation
Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
During system initialization and ACPI-based device hot-add, the ACPI namespace
is scanned in search of device objects that generally represent various pieces
of hardware. This causes a struct acpi_device object to be created and
registered with the driver core for every device object in the ACPI namespace
and the hierarchy of those struct acpi_device objects reflects the namespace
layout (i.e. parent device objects in the namespace are represented by parent
struct acpi_device objects and analogously for their children). Those struct
acpi_device objects are referred to as "device nodes" in what follows, but they
should not be confused with struct device_node objects used by the Device Trees
parsing code (although their role is analogous to the role of those objects).
During ACPI-based device hot-remove device nodes representing pieces of hardware
being removed are unregistered and deleted.
The core ACPI namespace scanning code in drivers/acpi/scan.c carries out basic
initialization of device nodes, such as retrieving common configuration
information from the device objects represented by them and populating them with
appropriate data, but some of them require additional handling after they have
been registered. For example, if the given device node represents a PCI host
bridge, its registration should cause the PCI bus under that bridge to be
enumerated and PCI devices on that bus to be registered with the driver core.
Similarly, if the device node represents a PCI interrupt link, it is necessary
to configure that link so that the kernel can use it.
Those additional configuration tasks usually depend on the type of the hardware
component represented by the given device node which can be determined on the
basis of the device node's hardware ID (HID). They are performed by objects
called ACPI scan handlers represented by the following structure:
struct acpi_scan_handler {
const struct acpi_device_id *ids;
struct list_head list_node;
int (*attach)(struct acpi_device *dev, const struct acpi_device_id *id);
void (*detach)(struct acpi_device *dev);
};
where ids is the list of IDs of device nodes the given handler is supposed to
take care of, list_node is the hook to the global list of ACPI scan handlers
maintained by the ACPI core and the .attach() and .detach() callbacks are
executed, respectively, after registration of new device nodes and before
unregistration of device nodes the handler attached to previously.
The namespace scanning function, acpi_bus_scan(), first registers all of the
device nodes in the given namespace scope with the driver core. Then, it tries
to match a scan handler against each of them using the ids arrays of the
available scan handlers. If a matching scan handler is found, its .attach()
callback is executed for the given device node. If that callback returns 1,
that means that the handler has claimed the device node and is now responsible
for carrying out any additional configuration tasks related to it. It also will
be responsible for preparing the device node for unregistration in that case.
The device node's handler field is then populated with the address of the scan
handler that has claimed it.
If the .attach() callback returns 0, it means that the device node is not
interesting to the given scan handler and may be matched against the next scan
handler in the list. If it returns a (negative) error code, that means that
the namespace scan should be terminated due to a serious error. The error code
returned should then reflect the type of the error.
The namespace trimming function, acpi_bus_trim(), first executes .detach()
callbacks from the scan handlers of all device nodes in the given namespace
scope (if they have scan handlers). Next, it unregisters all of the device
nodes in that scope.
ACPI scan handlers can be added to the list maintained by the ACPI core with the
help of the acpi_scan_add_handler() function taking a pointer to the new scan
handler as an argument. The order in which scan handlers are added to the list
is the order in which they are matched against device nodes during namespace
scans.
All scan handles must be added to the list before acpi_bus_scan() is run for the
first time and they cannot be removed from it.
