There should be a generic function to parse params like a=b,c Adding parse_option_str in lib/cmdline.c which will return true if there's specified option set in the params. Also updated efi=old_map parsing code to use the new function Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Gracefully handle failures to allocate memory for the image, which might be arbitrarily large. efi_bgrt_init can fail in various ways as well, usually because the BIOS-provided BGRT structure does not match expectations. Add appropriate error messages rather than failing silently.

We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used when reading files from the EFI System Partition. One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with commit 4bf7111f ("x86/efi: Support initrd loaded above 4G"), and that commit is perfectly valid. The symptom I observed was a corrupt initrd rather than any kind of crash. efi= is now used to specify EFI parameters in two very different execution environments, the EFI boot stub and during kernel boot. There is also a slight performance optimization by enabling efi=nochunk, but that's offset by the fact that you're more likely to run into firmware issues, at least on x86. This is the rationale behind leaving the workaround enabled by default. Also provide some documentation for EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE and why we're using the current value of 1MB.

According to section 7.1 of the UEFI spec, Runtime Services are not fully reentrant, and there are particular combinations of calls that need to be serialized. Use a spinlock to serialize all Runtime Services with respect to all others, even if this is more than strictly needed. We've managed to get away without requiring a runtime services lock until now because most of the interactions with EFI involve EFI variables, and those operations are already serialised with __efivars->lock. Some of the assumptions underlying the decision whether locks are needed or not (e.g., SetVariable() against ResetSystem()) may not apply universally to all [new] architectures that implement UEFI. Rather than try to reason our way out of this, let's just implement at least what the spec requires in terms of locking.

This driver adds support for the built-in accelereometer found on recent Toshiba laptops with HID TOS620A. This driver receives ACPI notify events 0x80 when the sensor detects a sudden move or a harsh vibration, as well as an ACPI notify event 0x81 whenever the movement or vibration has been stabilized. Also provides sysfs entries to get/set the desired protection level and reseting the HDD protection interface.

Some Toshiba models (most notably Qosmios) come with an incomplete backlight method where the AML code doesn't check for write or read commands and always returns HCI_SUCCESS and the actual brightness (and in some cases the max brightness), thus allowing the backlight interface to be registered without write support. This patch changes the set_lcd_brightness function, checking the returned values for values greater than zero to avoid registering a broken backlight interface.
