      ACPICA: Tables: Allow FADT to be customized with virtual address · 66360faa
      Lv Zheng 提交于
      ACPICA commit d98de9ca14891130efc5dcdc871b97eb27b4b0f5
      
      FADT parsing code requires FADT to be installed as
      ACPI_TABLE_ORIGIN_INTERNAL_PHYSICAL, using new
      acpi_tb_get_table()/acpi_tb_put_table(), other address types can also be allowed,
      thus facilitates FADT customization with virtual address. Lv Zheng.

      ACPICA: Tables: Back port acpi_get_table_with_size() and early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() from Linux kernel
      
      ACPICA commit cac6790954d4d752a083e6122220b8a22febcd07
      
      This patch back ports Linux acpi_get_table_with_size() and
      early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() into ACPICA upstream to reduce divergences.
      
      The 2 APIs are used by Linux as table management APIs for long time, it
      contains a hidden logic that during the early stage, the mapped tables
      should be unmapped before the early stage ends.
      
      During the early stage, tables are handled by the following sequence:
       acpi_get_table_with_size();
       parse the table
       early_acpi_os_unmap_memory();
      During the late stage, tables are handled by the following sequence:
       acpi_get_table();
       parse the table
      Linux uses acpi_gbl_permanent_mmap to distinguish the early stage and the
      late stage.
      
      The reasoning of introducing acpi_get_table_with_size() is: ACPICA will
      remember the early mapped pointer in acpi_get_table() and Linux isn't able to
      prevent ACPICA from using the wrong early mapped pointer during the late
      stage as there is no API provided from ACPICA to be an inverse of
      acpi_get_table() to forget the early mapped pointer.
      
      But how ACPICA can work with the early/late stage requirement? Inside of
      ACPICA, tables are ensured to be remained in "INSTALLED" state during the
      early stage, and they are carefully not transitioned to "VALIDATED" state
      until the late stage. So the same logic is in fact implemented inside of
      ACPICA in a different way. The gap is only that the feature is not provided
      to the OSPMs in an accessible external API style.
      
      It then is possible to fix the gap by providing an inverse of
      acpi_get_table() from ACPICA, so that the two Linux sequences can be
      combined:
       acpi_get_table();
       parse the table
       acpi_put_table();
      In order to work easier with the current Linux code, acpi_get_table() and
      acpi_put_table() is implemented in a usage counting based style:
       1. When the usage count of the table is increased from 0 to 1, table is
          mapped and .Pointer is set with the mapping address (VALIDATED);
       2. When the usage count of the table is decreased from 1 to 0, .Pointer
          is unset and the mapping address is unmapped (INVALIDATED).
      So that we can deploy the new APIs to Linux with minimal effort by just
      invoking acpi_get_table() in acpi_get_table_with_size() and invoking
      acpi_put_table() in early_acpi_os_unmap_memory(). Lv Zheng.
