      when installing the following table during early stage:
       ACPI: SSDT 0x00000000B9638018 07A0C4 (v02 INTEL  S2600CP  00004000 INTL 20100331)
      The regression is caused by the size limitation of the x86 early IO mapping.
      
      The root cause is:
       1. ACPICA doesn't split IO memory mapping and table mapping;
       2. Linux x86 OSL implements acpi_os_map_memory() using a size limited fix-map
          mechanism during early boot stage, which is more suitable for only IO
          mappings.
      
      This patch fixes this issue by utilizing acpi_gbl_verify_table_checksum to
      disable the table mapping during early stage and enabling it again for the
      late stage. In this way, the normal code path is not affected. Then after
      the code related to the root cause is cleaned up, the early checksum
      verification can be easily re-enabled.
      
      A new boot parameter - acpi_force_table_verification is introduced for
      the platforms that require the checksum verification to stop loading bad
      tables.
      
      This fix also covers the checksum verification for the table overrides. Now
      large tables can also be overridden using the initrd override mechanism.

      ACPICA: Tables: Add mechanism to control early table checksum verification. · 47d68c7f
      Lv Zheng authored
      It is reported that Linux x86 kernel cannot map large tables. The following
      large SSDT table on such platform fails to pass checksum verification and
      cannot be installed:
       ACPI: SSDT 0x00000000B9638018 07A0C4 (v02 INTEL  S2600CP  00004000 INTL 20100331)
      
      It sounds strange that in the 64-bit virtual memory address space, we
      cannot map a single ACPI table to do checksum verification. The root cause
      is:
       1. ACPICA doesn't split IO memory mapping and table mapping;
       2. Linux x86 OSL implements acpi_os_map_memory() using a size limited fix-map
          mechanism during early boot stage, which is more suitable for only IO
          mappings.
      
      ACPICA originally only mapped table header for signature validation, and
      this header mapping is required by OSL override mechanism. There was no
      checksum verification because we could not map the whole table using this
      OSL. While the following ACPICA commit enforces checksum verification by
      mapping the whole table during Linux boot stage and it finally triggers
      this issue on some platforms:
       Commit: 86dfc6f3
       Subject: ACPICA: Tables: Fix table checksums verification before installation.
      
      Before doing further cleanups for the OSL table mapping and override
      implementation, this patch introduces an option for such OSPMs to
      temporarily discard the checksum verification feature. It then can be
      re-enabled easily when the ACPICA and the underlying OSL is ready.
      
      This patch also deletes a comment around the limitation of mappings because
      it is not correct. The limitation is not how many times we can map in the
      early stage, but the OSL mapping facility may not be suitable for mapping
      the ACPI tables and thus may complain us the size limitation.
      
      The acpi_tb_verify_table() is renamed to acpi_tb_verify_temp_table() due to the
      work around added, it now only applies to the table descriptor that hasn't
      been installed and cannot be used in other cases. Lv Zheng.

      ACPI: Clean up acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to eliminate __iomem. · a238317c
      Lv Zheng authored
      ACPICA doesn't include protections around address space checking, Linux
      build tests always complain increased sparse warnings around ACPICA
      internal acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() invocations.  This patch tries to fix
      this issue permanently.
      
      There are 2 choices left for us to solve this issue:
       1. Add __iomem address space awareness into ACPICA.
       2. Remove sparse checker of __iomem from ACPICA source code.
      
      This patch chooses solution 2, because:
       1.  Most of the acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() invocations are used for ACPICA.
           table mappings, which in fact are not IO addresses.
       2.  The only IO addresses usage is for "system memory space" mapping code in:
            drivers/acpi/acpica/exregion.c
            drivers/acpi/acpica/evrgnini.c
            drivers/acpi/acpica/exregion.c
          The mapped address is accessed in the handler of "system memory space"
          - acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler().  This function in fact can be
          changed to invoke acpi_os_read/write_memory() so that __iomem can
          always be type-casted in the OSL layer.
      
      According to the above investigation, we drew the following conclusion:
      It is not a good idea to introduce __iomem address space awareness into
      ACPICA mostly in order to protect non-IO addresses.
      
      We can simply remove __iomem for acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to remove
      __iomem checker for ACPICA code. Then we need to enforce external usages
      to invoke other APIs that are aware of __iomem address space.
      The external usages are:
       drivers/acpi/apei/einj.c
       drivers/acpi/acpi_extlog.c
       drivers/char/tpm/tpm_acpi.c
       drivers/acpi/nvs.c
      
      This patch thus performs cleanups in this way:
       1. Add acpi_os_map/unmap_iomem() to be invoked by non-ACPICA code.
       2. Remove __iomem from acpi_os_map/unmap_memory().

      ACPICA: Linux headers: Add <asm/acenv.h> to remove mis-ordered inclusion of <asm/acpi.h> · 07d83914
      Lv Zheng authored
      There is a mis-order inclusion for <asm/acpi.h>.
      
      As we will enforce including <linux/acpi.h> for all Linux ACPI users, we
      can find the inclusion order is as follows:
      
      <linux/acpi.h>
        <acpi/acpi.h>
         <acpi/platform/acenv.h>
          (acenv.h before including aclinux.h)
          <acpi/platform/aclinux.h>
      ...........................................................................
           (aclinux.h before including asm/acpi.h)
           <asm/acpi.h>                             @Redundant@
            (ACPICA specific stuff)
      ...........................................................................
      ...........................................................................
            (Linux ACPI specific stuff) ? - - - - - - - - - - - - +
           (aclinux.h after including asm/acpi.h)   @Invisible@   |
          (acenv.h after including aclinux.h)       @Invisible@   |
         other ACPICA headers                       @Invisible@   |
      ............................................................|..............
        <acpi/acpi_bus.h>                                         |
        <acpi/acpi_drivers.h>                                     |
        <asm/acpi.h> (Excluded)                                   |
         (Linux ACPI specific stuff) ! <- - - - - - - - - - - - - +
      
      NOTE that, in ACPICA, <acpi/platform/acenv.h> is more like Kconfig
      generated <generated/autoconf.h> for Linux, it is meant to be included
      before including any ACPICA code.
      
      In the above figure, there is a question mark for "Linux ACPI specific
      stuff" in <asm/acpi.h> which should be included after including all other
      ACPICA header files.  Thus they really need to be moved to the position
      marked with exclaimation mark or the definitions in the blocks marked with
      "@Invisible@" will be invisible to such architecture specific "Linux ACPI
      specific stuff" header blocks.  This leaves 2 issues:
      1. All environmental definitions in these blocks should have a copy in the
         area marked with "@Redundant@" if they are required by the "Linux ACPI
         specific stuff".
      2. We cannot use any ACPICA defined types in <asm/acpi.h>.
      
      This patch splits architecture specific ACPICA stuff from <asm/acpi.h> to
      fix this issue.

      ACPICA: Linux headers: Add <acpi/platform/aclinuxex.h> · d13bd5a6
      Lv Zheng authored
      From ACPICA's perspective, <acpi/actypes.h> should be included after
      inclusion of <acpi/platform/acenv.h>.  But currently in Linux,
      <acpi/platform/aclinux.h> included by <acpi/platform/acenv.h> has
      included <acpi/actypes.h> to find ACPICA types for inline functions.
      
      This causes the following problem:
      1. Redundant code in <asm/acpi.h> and <acpi/platform/aclinux.h>:
         Linux must be careful to keep conditions for <acpi/actypes.h> inclusion
         consistent with the conditions for <acpi/platform/aclinux.h> inclusion.
         Which finally leads to the issue that we have to keep many useless macro
         definitions in <acpi/platform/aclinux.h> or <asm/acpi.h>.
         Such conditions include:
           COMPILER_DEPENDENT_UINT64
           COMPILER_DEPENDENT_INT64
           ACPI_INLINE
           ACPI_SYSTEM_XFACE
           ACPI_EXTERNAL_XFACE
           ACPI_INTERNAL_XFACE
           ACPI_INTERNAL_VAR_XFACE
           ACPI_MUTEX_TYPE
           DEBUGGER_THREADING
           ACPI_ACQUIRE_GLOBAL_LOCK
           ACPI_RELEASE_GLOBAL_LOCK
           ACPI_FLUSH_CPU_CACHE
         They have default implementations in <include/acpi/platform/acenv.h>
         while Linux need to keep a copy in <asm/acpi.h> to avoid build errors.
      
      This patch introduces <acpi/platform/aclinuxex.h> to fix this issue by
      splitting conditions and declarations (most of them are inline functions)
      into 2 header files so that the wrong inclusion of <acpi/actypes.h> can be
      removed from <acpi/platform/aclinux.h>.
      
      This patch also removes old ACPI_NATIVE_INTERFACE_HEADER mechanism which is
      not preferred by Linux and adds the platform/acenvex.h to be the solution
      to solve this issue.
