2011-01-18ACPICA: Fix issues/fault with automatic "serialized" method supportLin Ming
History: This support changes a method to "serialized" on the fly if the method generates an AE_ALREADY_EXISTS error, indicating the possibility that it cannot handle reentrancy. This fix repairs a couple of issues seen in the field, especially on machines with many cores. 1) Delete method children only upon the exit of the last thread, so as to not delete objects out from under running threads. 2) Set the "serialized" bit for the method only upon the exit of the last thread, so as to not cause deadlock when running threads attempt to exit. 3) Cleanup the use of the AML "MethodFlags" and internal method flags so that there is no longer any confustion between the two.

2010-10-01ACPICA: Make acpi_thread_id no longer configurable, always u64Lin Ming
Change definition of acpi_thread_id to always be a u64. This simplifies the code, especially any printf output. u64 is the only common data type for all thread_id types across all operating systems. We now force the OSL to cast the native thread_id type to u64 before returning the value to ACPICA (via acpi_os_get_thread_id).

2010-07-06ACPICA: Optimization: Reduce the number of namespace walksAlexey Starikovskiy
On control method exit, only walk the namespace if the method is known to have created namespace objects outside of its local scope.

2010-07-06ACPICA: Core: Replace all %d format specifiers with %u (unsigned)Bob Moore
With only a few exceptions, ACPICA does not use signed integers. Therefore, %d is incorrect. Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2010-04-20ACPICA: Standardize integer output for ACPICA warnings/errorsBob Moore
Always use 0x prefix for hex output, use %u for integer output (all integers are unsigned.) Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2010-01-22ACPICA: Update all ACPICA copyrights and signons to 2010Bob Moore
Add 2010 copyright to all module headers and signons, including the Linux header. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem, iASL compiler, and all utilities.

2009-12-15ACPICA: Module-level code: enable _REG execution in same scopeLin Ming
This change enables the execution of _REG methods that appear in the same scope as the module-level code, in resonse to an operation region declaration within the module-level code.

2009-08-28ACPICA: Add support for module-level executable AML codeLin Ming
Add limited support for executable AML code that exists outside of any control method. This type of code has been illegal since ACPI 2.0. The code must exist in an If/Else/While block. All AML tables are supported, including tables that are dynamically loaded.
