2012-01-17ACPI, Record ACPI NVS regionsHuang Ying
Some firmware will access memory in ACPI NVS region via APEI. That is, instructions in APEI ERST/EINJ table will read/write ACPI NVS region. The original resource conflict checking in APEI code will check memory/ioport accessed by APEI via general resource management mechanism. But ACPI NVS region is marked as busy already, so that the false resource conflict will prevent APEI ERST/EINJ to work. To fix this, this patch record ACPI NVS regions, so that we can avoid request resources for memory region inside it.

2011-02-24ACPI / PM: Use existing ACPI iomaps for NVS save/restore (v2)Rafael J. Wysocki
Modify the NVS save/restore code to use acpi_os_get_iomem() and acpi_os_unmap_memory() to acquire and release references to ACPI iomaps, respectively. If there's no ACPI iomap corresponding to the given NVS page, acpi_os_ioremap() is used to map that page and iounmap() is used to unmap it during resume. [If the page is not present in the ACPI iomaps already, it doesn't make sense to add its mapping to the list of ACPI iomaps, because it's going to be thrown away during the subsequent resume anyway.] Testing on my HP nx6325 shows that approx. 90% of the NVS pages have already been mapped by ACPI before suspend and are present in the ACPI iomaps, so this change appears to be the right thing to do in general.

2011-01-20ACPI: Introduce acpi_os_ioremap()Rafael J. Wysocki
Commit ca9b600be38c ("ACPI / PM: Make suspend_nvs_save() use acpi_os_map_memory()") attempted to prevent the code in osl.c and nvs.c from using different ioremap() variants by making the latter use acpi_os_map_memory() for mapping the NVS pages. However, that also requires acpi_os_unmap_memory() to be used for unmapping them, which causes synchronize_rcu() to be executed many times in a row unnecessarily and introduces substantial delays during resume on some systems. Instead of using acpi_os_map_memory() for mapping the NVS pages in nvs.c introduce acpi_os_ioremap() calling ioremap_cache() and make the code in both osl.c and nvs.c use it.

2011-01-07ACPI / PM: Make suspend_nvs_save() use acpi_os_map_memory()Rafael J. Wysocki
It turns out that the NVS memory region that suspend_nvs_save() attempts to map has been already mapped by acpi_os_map_memory(), so suspend_nvs_save() should better use acpi_os_map_memory() for mapping memory to avoid conflicts.

2011-01-07PM / ACPI: Move NVS saving and restoring code to drivers/acpiRafael J. Wysocki
The saving of the ACPI NVS area during hibernation and suspend and restoring it during the subsequent resume is entirely specific to ACPI, so move it to drivers/acpi and drop the CONFIG_SUSPEND_NVS configuration option which is redundant.
