2008-12-19create drivers/platform/x86/ from drivers/misc/Len Brown
Move x86 platform specific drivers from drivers/misc/ to a new home under drivers/platform/x86/. The community has been maintaining x86 vendor-specific platform specific drivers under /drivers/misc/ for a few years. The oldest ones started life under drivers/acpi. They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually implement the ACPI specification, but either simply use ACPI, or implement vendor-specific ACPI extensions. In the future we anticipate... drivers/misc/ will go away. other architectures will create drivers/platform/<arch> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2008-10-22ACPI: replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code with AE_ERRORLin Ming
The AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code is now unused in ACPICA. For linux, it's only used at wmi.c and acer-wmi.c. I checked both wmi.c and acer-wmi.c, the AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code has no special meaning. The parent functions just call AE_SUCCESS() or AE_FAILURE() to check the return status. So it's safe to replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS with AE_ERROR. Signed-off-by Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2008-10-08acer-wmi: Add rfkill support for wireless and bluetoothCarlos Corbacho
This patch implements rfkill support for the wireless and bluetooth devices commonly found on Acer laptops. For now, we will always poll these devices once a second to guarantee we can catch state changes. On newer Acer laptops, it may be possible to rely on WMI events to do this instead, and experimental support for this will be added in a later patch. 3G has been deliberately left off for now, as we still have no way to detect it, (nor, AFAIK, has any Linux user tried the code) and on laptops that don't support 3G, trying to poll for the status will leave the logs full of ACPI tracebacks. The old sysfs interface for wireless and bluetooth will be removed in a later patch. (Thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and Dmitry Torokhov for reviewing this patch).

2008-08-23Fix oops in acer_wmi driver (acer_wmi_init)Arjan van de Ven
The acer_wmi driver does a DMI scan for quirks, and then sets flags into the "interface" datastructure for some cases. However, the quirks happen real early before "interface" is per se initialized from NULL. The patch below 1) adds a NULL pointer check and 2) (re)runs the quirks at the end, when "interface" has it's final value.

2008-08-15acer-wmi: Fix wireless and bluetooth on early AMW0 v2 laptopsCarlos Corbacho
In the old acer_acpi, I discovered that on some of the newer AMW0 laptops that supported the WMID methods, they don't work properly for setting the wireless and bluetooth values. So for the AMW0 V2 laptops, we want to use both the 'old' AMW0 and the 'new' WMID methods for setting wireless & bluetooth to guarantee we always enable it. This was fixed in acer_acpi some time ago, but I forgot to port the patch over to acer-wmi when it was merged. (Without this patch, early AMW0 V2 laptops such as the Aspire 5040 won't work with acer-wmi, where-as they did with the old acer_acpi).

2008-07-16acer-wmi: Add debugfs file for device detectionCarlos Corbacho
Add a debugfs file for showing the full results of the method we use to detect devices on WMID laptops. This should be useful in the case that a Linux user gets an Acer laptop with 3G support (and/ or people who enjoy ripping their wireless cards out) so we can get some feedback on how this value changes in these cases. (At the moment, we always enable the wireless and 3G control. In the case of the former, this is fairly safe. In the case of the latter though, trying to toggle this device if it doesn't exist on a laptop causes ACPI warnings/ errors). To summarise: If you have an Acer laptop with a built in 3G card, please report back the value from this file.

2008-03-11acer-wmi: Rename mail LED correctly & remove hardcoded colourCarlos Corbacho
The mail LED name for acer-wmi currently hardcodes in the colour as green. This is wrong, since many of the newer laptops now come with an orange LED, and we have no way of telling what colour is used on a given system. Also, rename the mail LED to be inline with the current recommendations of the LED class documentation.
