pnp_dbg() is equivalent to dev_dbg() except that we can turn it
on at boot-time with the "pnp.debug" kernel parameter, so we don't
have to build a new kernel image.

<id>urn:sha1:1f32ca31e7409d37c1b25e5f81840fb184380cdf</id>
<content type='text'>
ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, and ACPI describe the "possible resource settings" of
a device, i.e., the possibilities an OS bus driver has when it assigns
I/O port, MMIO, and other resources to the device.

PNP used to maintain this "possible resource setting" information in
one independent option structure and a list of dependent option
structures for each device.  Each of these option structures had lists
of I/O, memory, IRQ, and DMA resources, for example:

  dev
    independent options
      ind-io0  -&gt; ind-io1  ...
      ind-mem0 -&gt; ind-mem1 ...
      ...
    dependent option set 0
      dep0-io0  -&gt; dep0-io1  ...
      dep0-mem0 -&gt; dep0-mem1 ...
      ...
    dependent option set 1
      dep1-io0  -&gt; dep1-io1  ...
      dep1-mem0 -&gt; dep1-mem1 ...
      ...
    ...

This data structure was designed for ISAPNP, where the OS configures
device resource settings by writing directly to configuration
registers.  The OS can write the registers in arbitrary order much
like it writes PCI BARs.

However, for PNPBIOS and ACPI devices, the OS uses firmware interfaces
that perform device configuration, and it is important to pass the
desired settings to those interfaces in the correct order.  The OS
learns the correct order by using firmware interfaces that return the
"current resource settings" and "possible resource settings," but the
option structures above doesn't store the ordering information.

This patch replaces the independent and dependent lists with a single
list of options.  For example, a device might have possible resource
settings like this:

  dev
    options
      ind-io0 -&gt; dep0-io0 -&gt; dep1-&gt;io0 -&gt; ind-io1 ...

All the possible settings are in the same list, in the order they
come from the firmware "possible resource settings" list.  Each entry
is tagged with an independent/dependent flag.  Dependent entries also
have a "set number" and an optional priority value.  All dependent
entries must be assigned from the same set.  For example, the OS can
use all the entries from dependent set 0, or all the entries from
dependent set 1, but it cannot mix entries from set 0 with entries
from set 1.

Prior to this patch PNP didn't keep track of the order of this list,
and it assigned all independent options first, then all dependent
ones.  Using the example above, that resulted in a "desired
configuration" list like this:

  ind-&gt;io0 -&gt; ind-&gt;io1 -&gt; depN-io0 ...

instead of the list the firmware expects, which looks like this:

  ind-&gt;io0 -&gt; depN-io0 -&gt; ind-io1 ...

<title>PNP: support optional IRQ resources</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d5ebde6ef5c2d51828f975a81d7d0e58bccfd833</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds an IORESOURCE_IRQ_OPTIONAL flag for use when
assigning resources to a device.  If the flag is set and we are
unable to assign an IRQ to the device, we can leave the IRQ
disabled but allow the overall resource allocation to succeed.

Some devices request an IRQ, but can run without an IRQ
(possibly with degraded performance).  This flag lets us run
the device without the IRQ instead of just leaving the
device disabled.

This is a reimplementation of this previous change by Rene
Herman &lt;rene.herman@gmail.com&gt;:
    http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3b73a223661ed137c5d3d2635f954382e94f5a43

I reimplemented this for two reasons:
    - to prepare for converting all resource options into a single linked
      list, as opposed to the per-resource-type lists we have now, and
    - to preserve the order and number of resource options.

In PNPBIOS and ACPI, we configure a device by giving firmware a
list of resource assignments.  It is important that this list
has exactly the same number of resources, in the same order,
as the "template" list we got from the firmware in the first
place.

The problem of a sound card MPU401 being left disabled for want of
an IRQ was reported by Uwe Bugla &lt;uwe.bugla@gmx.de&gt;.

pnp_assign_resources() is static and the only caller checks
pnp_can_configure() before calling it, so no need to do it
again.

This patch doesn't change any behavior; it just makes the return
values more conventional.

This changes pnp_assign_dma() from a void function to one that
returns an int, just like the other assignment functions.  For
now, at least, pnp_assign_dma() always returns 0 (success), so
it appears to never fail, just like before.

This adds a typedef for the IRQ bitmap, which should cause
no functional change, but will make it easier to pass a
pointer to a bitmap to pnp_register_irq_resource().

<title>PNP: replace pnp_resource_table with dynamically allocated resources</title>

<id>urn:sha1:aee3ad815dd291a7193ab01da0f1a30c84d00061</id>
<content type='text'>
PNP used to have a fixed-size pnp_resource_table for tracking the
resources used by a device.  This table often overflowed, so we've
had to increase the table size, which wastes memory because most
devices have very few resources.

This patch replaces the table with a linked list of resources where
the entries are allocated on demand.

This removes messages like these:

    pnpacpi: exceeded the max number of IO resources
    00:01: too many I/O port resources

References:

    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9535
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9740
    http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/30/110

This patch also changes the way PNP uses the IORESOURCE_UNSET,
IORESOURCE_AUTO, and IORESOURCE_DISABLED flags.

Prior to this patch, the pnp_resource_table entries used the flags
like this:

    IORESOURCE_UNSET
	This table entry is unused and available for use.  When this flag
	is set, we shouldn't look at anything else in the resource structure.
	This flag is set when a resource table entry is initialized.

    IORESOURCE_AUTO
	This resource was assigned automatically by pnp_assign_{io,mem,etc}().

	This flag is set when a resource table entry is initialized and
	cleared whenever we discover a resource setting by reading an ISAPNP
	config register, parsing a PNPBIOS resource data stream, parsing an
	ACPI _CRS list, or interpreting a sysfs "set" command.

	Resources marked IORESOURCE_AUTO are reinitialized and marked as
	IORESOURCE_UNSET by pnp_clean_resource_table() in these cases:

	    - before we attempt to assign resources automatically,
	    - if we fail to assign resources automatically,
	    - after disabling a device

    IORESOURCE_DISABLED
	Set by pnp_assign_{io,mem,etc}() when automatic assignment fails.
	Also set by PNPBIOS and PNPACPI for:

	    - invalid IRQs or GSI registration failures
	    - invalid DMA channels
	    - I/O ports above 0x10000
	    - mem ranges with negative length

After this patch, there is no pnp_resource_table, and the resource list
entries use the flags like this:

    IORESOURCE_UNSET
	This flag is no longer used in PNP.  Instead of keeping
	IORESOURCE_UNSET entries in the resource list, we remove
	entries from the list and free them.

    IORESOURCE_AUTO
	No change in meaning: it still means the resource was assigned
	automatically by pnp_assign_{port,mem,etc}(), but these functions
	now set the bit explicitly.

	We still "clean" a device's resource list in the same places,
	but rather than reinitializing IORESOURCE_AUTO entries, we
	just remove them from the list.

	Note that IORESOURCE_AUTO entries are always at the end of the
	list, so removing them doesn't reorder other list entries.
	This is because non-IORESOURCE_AUTO entries are added by the
	ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, or PNPACPI "get resources" methods and by the
	sysfs "set" command.  In each of these cases, we completely free
	the resource list first.

    IORESOURCE_DISABLED
	In addition to the cases where we used to set this flag, ISAPNP now
	adds an IORESOURCE_DISABLED resource when it reads a configuration
	register with a "disabled" value.

We used pnp_resource.index to keep track of which ISAPNP configuration
register a resource should be written to.  We needed this only to
handle the case where a register is disabled but a subsequent register
in the same set is enabled.

Rather than explicitly maintaining the pnp_resource.index, this patch
adds a resource every time we read an ISAPNP configuration register
and marks the resource as IORESOURCE_DISABLED when appropriate.  This
makes the position in the pnp_resource_table always correspond to the
config register index.

<content type='text'>
Save the ISAPNP config register index in the struct pnp_resource.

We need this because it is important to write ISAPNP configuration
back to the same registers we read it from.  For example, if we
read valid regions from memory descriptors 0, 1, and 3, we'd
better write them back to the same registers, without compressing
them to descriptors 0, 1, and 2.

This was previously guaranteed by using the index into the
pnp_resource_table array as the ISAPNP config register index.
However, I am removing those fixed-size arrays, so we need to
save the ISAPNP register index elsewhere.
