From commit 6915564dc5a8 ("ACPI: OSL: Change the type of

acpi_os_map_generic_address() will return logical address or NULL
for error, but for ACPI_ADR_SPACE_SYSTEM_IO case, it should be also
return 0 as it's a normal case, but now it will return -ENXIO.

ACPI, EINJ: Enhance error injection tolerance level

Some BIOSes utilize PCI MMCFG space read/write opertion to trigger
specific errors. EINJ will report errors as below when hitting such
cases:

APEI: Can not request [mem 0x83f990a0-0x83f990a3] for APEI EINJ Trigger registers

It is because on x86 platform ACPI based PCI MMCFG logic has
reserved all MMCFG spaces so that EINJ can't reserve it again.
We already trust the ACPI/APEI code when using the EINJ interface
so it is not a big leap to also trust it to access the right
MMCFG addresses. Skip address checking to allow the access.

ACPI, APEI: Cleanup alignment-aware accesses

We do use memcpy to avoid access alignment issues between firmware and
OS. Now we can use a better and standard way to avoid this issue. While
at it, simplify some variable names to avoid the 80 cols limit and
use structure assignment instead of unnecessary memcpy. No functional
changes.

Because ERST record id cache is implemented in memory to increase the
access speed via caching ERST content we can refrain from using memcpy
there too and use regular assignment instead.

ACPI / i915: Fix incorrect <acpi/acpi.h> inclusions via <linux/acpi_io.h>

To avoid build problems and breaking dependencies between ACPI header
files, <acpi/acpi.h> should not be included directly by code outside
of the ACPI core subsystem. However, that is possible if
<linux/acpi_io.h> is included, because that file contains
a direct inclusion of <acpi/acpi.h>.

For this reason, remove the direct <acpi/acpi.h> inclusion from
<linux/acpi_io.h>, move that file from include/linux/ to include/acpi/
and make <linux/acpi.h> include it for CONFIG_ACPI set along with the
other ACPI header files. Accordingly, Remove the inclusions of
<linux/acpi_io.h> from everywhere.

Of course, that causes the contents of the new <acpi/acpi_io.h> file
to be available for CONFIG_ACPI set only, so intel_opregion.o that
depends on it should also depend on CONFIG_ACPI (and it really should
not be compiled for CONFIG_ACPI unset anyway).

# 15afae60 21-Mar-2012 Gary Hade <garyhade@us.ibm.com>

ACPI, APEI: Fix incorrect APEI register bit width check and usage

The current code incorrectly assumes that
(1) the APEI register bit width is always 8, 16, 32, or 64 and
(2) the APEI register bit width is always equal to the APEI
register access width.

ERST serialization instructions entries such as:

[030h 0048 1] Action : 00 [Begin Write Operation]
[031h 0049 1] Instruction : 03 [Write Register Value]
[032h 0050 1] Flags (decoded below) : 01
Preserve Register Bits : 1
[033h 0051 1] Reserved : 00

[034h 0052 12] Register Region : [Generic Address Structure]
[034h 0052 1] Space ID : 00 [SystemMemory]
[035h 0053 1] Bit Width : 03
[036h 0054 1] Bit Offset : 00
[037h 0055 1] Encoded Access Width : 03 [DWord Access:32]
[038h 0056 8] Address : 000000007F2D7038

[040h 0064 8] Value : 0000000000000001
[048h 0072 8] Mask : 0000000000000007

break this assumption by yielding:
[Firmware Bug]: APEI: Invalid bit width in GAR [0x7f2d7038/3/0]

I have found no ACPI specification requirements corresponding
with the above assumptions. There is even a good example in
the Serialization Instruction Entries section (ACPI 4.0 section
17.4,1.2, ACPI 4.0a section 2.5.1.2, ACPI 5.0 section 18.5.1.2)
that mentions a serialization instruction with a bit range of
[6:2] which is 5 bits wide, _not_ 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits wide.

ACPI, APEI: Add 64-bit read/write support for APEI on i386

Base ACPI (CA) currently does not support atomic 64-bit reads and writes
(acpi_read() and acpi_write() split 64-bit loads/stores into two
32-bit transfers) yet APEI expects 64-bit transfer capability, even
when running on 32-bit systems.

This patch implements 64-bit read and write routines for APEI usage.

This patch re-factors similar functionality introduced in commit
04c25997c97, bringing it into the ACPI subsystem in preparation for
removing ./drivers/acpi/atomicio.[ch]. In the implementation I have
replicated acpi_os_read_memory() and acpi_os_write_memory(), creating
64-bit versions for APEI to utilize, as opposed to something more
elegant. My thinking is that we should attempt to see if we can get
ACPI's CA/OSL changed so that the existing acpi_read() and acpi_write()
interfaces are natively 64-bit capable and then subsequently remove the
replication.

# 700130b4 07-Nov-2011 Myron Stowe <mstowe@redhat.com>

ACPI APEI: Convert atomicio routines

APEI needs memory access in interrupt context. The obvious choice is
acpi_read(), but originally it couldn't be used in interrupt context
because it makes temporary mappings with ioremap(). Therefore, we added
drivers/acpi/atomicio.c, which provides:
acpi_pre_map_gar() -- ioremap in process context
acpi_atomic_read() -- memory access in interrupt context
acpi_post_unmap_gar() -- iounmap

Later we added acpi_os_map_generic_address() (2971852) and enhanced
acpi_read() so it works in interrupt context as long as the address has
been previously mapped (620242a). Now this sequence:
acpi_os_map_generic_address() -- ioremap in process context
acpi_read()/apei_read() -- now OK in interrupt context
acpi_os_unmap_generic_address()
is equivalent to what atomicio.c provides.

This patch introduces apei_read() and apei_write(), which currently are
functional equivalents of acpi_read() and acpi_write(). This is mainly
proactive, to prevent APEI breakages if acpi_read() and acpi_write()
are ever augmented to support the 'bit_offset' field of GAS, as APEI's
__apei_exec_write_register() precludes splitting up functionality
related to 'bit_offset' and APEI's 'mask' (see its
APEI_EXEC_PRESERVE_REGISTER block).

With apei_read() and apei_write() in place, usages of atomicio routines
are converted to apei_read()/apei_write() and existing calls within
osl.c and the CA, based on the re-factoring that was done in an earlier
patch series - http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=128769263327206&w=2:
acpi_pre_map_gar() --> acpi_os_map_generic_address()
acpi_post_unmap_gar() --> acpi_os_unmap_generic_address()
acpi_atomic_read() --> apei_read()
acpi_atomic_write() --> apei_write()

Note that acpi_read() and acpi_write() currently use 'bit_width'
for accessing GARs which seems incorrect. 'bit_width' is the size of
the register, while 'access_width' is the size of the access the
processor must generate on the bus. The 'access_width' may be larger,
for example, if the hardware only supports 32-bit or 64-bit reads. I
wanted to minimize any possible impacts with this patch series so I
did *not* change this behavior.

ACPI, APEI, Resolve false conflict between ACPI NVS and APEI

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
mech. But ACPI NVS region is marked as busy already, so that the

To fix this, this patch excludes ACPI NVS regions when APEI components

ACPI, APEI, APEI supporting infrastructure

APEI stands for ACPI Platform Error Interface, which allows to report
errors (for example from the chipset) to the operating system. This
improves NMI handling especially. In addition it supports error
serialization and error injection.

For more information about APEI, please refer to ACPI Specification
version 4.0, chapter 17.

This patch provides some common functions used by more than one APEI
tables, mainly framework of interpreter for EINJ and ERST.

A machine readable language is defined for EINJ and ERST for OS to
execute, and so to drive the firmware to fulfill the corresponding
functions. The machine language for EINJ and ERST is compatible, so a
common framework is defined for them.
