[PATCH 8/9] ACPI/EC: Deploy the new GPE handling model.

From: Lv Zheng
Date: Tue Jun 17 2014 - 23:18:28 EST


This patch deploys the following GPE handling model:
1. acpi_enable_gpe()/acpi_disable_gpe():
This set of APIs are used for EC usage reference counting.
2. acpi_set_gpe(ACPI_GPE_ENABLE)/acpi_set_gpe(ACPI_GPE_DISABLE):
This set of APIs are used for preventing GPE storm.

For the EC driver, GPE is enabled for the following users:
1. Event monitoring: If we want to query events, acpi_enable_gpe() is
invoked to allow EVT_SCI.
2. Command processing: when we receive an upper layer command submission,
acpi_enable_gpe() is invoked to allow IBF=0,OBF=1
IRQs.
Comments are updated to reflect this model.

For the EC driver, GPE is disabled for the following storms:
1. Command errors: If there are too many IRQs coming during a command
processing period and such IRQs are not related to the
event (EVT_SCI), acpi_set_gpe(ACPI_GPE_DISABLE) is
invoked to prevent further storms during the same
command transaction. This is not implemented in a good
style. Ideally, we should only enable storm prevention
for the current command so that the next command can try
the efficient interrupt mode again. This patch doesn't
change this much, but introduces a slight modification
to clear the storm flag after completing the current
command polling process.
2. Event errors: Note currently we haven't implemented the storm prevention
for EVT_SCI.

The acpi_set_gpe() should be invoked for an outstanding command,
which means it should be invoked inside of a pair of acpi_enable_gpe()/
acpi_disable_gpe() invocation. This patch thus also moves the storm
prevention logic into acpi_ec_transaction_unlocked().

With the new facility, we are able to flush outstanding commands by waiting
for the GPE to be disabled after we have stopped monitoring the EC events.
The GPE APIs are safe to be invoked with holding the driver's spin lock
which is shared with the GPE handler. Thus this patch invokes
acpi_enable_gpe()/acpi_disable_gpe() within the EC state protection lock so
that the GPE usage changes becomes a part of the EC driver state changes.

The system suspending/resuming test result is as follows:
[ 24.950829] ACPI : EC: +++++ Stopping EC +++++
[ 24.950836] ACPI : EC: +++++ EC stopped +++++
