+
+CPPC
+====
+
+CPPC defined in the ACPI spec describes a mechanism for the OS to manage the
+performance of a logical processor on a contiguous and abstract performance
+scale. CPPC exposes a set of registers to describe abstract performance scale,
+to request performance levels and to measure per-cpu delivered performance.
+
+For more details on CPPC please refer to the ACPI specification at:
+
+http://uefi.org/specifications
+
+Some of the CPPC registers are exposed via sysfs under::
+
+  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/acpi_cppc/
+
+for each cpu X::

+===========================
+ACPI Fan Performance States
+===========================
+
+When the optional _FPS object is present under an ACPI device representing a
+fan (for example, PNP0C0B or INT3404), the ACPI fan driver creates additional
+"state*" attributes in the sysfs directory of the ACPI device in question.
+These attributes list properties of fan performance states.
+
+For more information on _FPS refer to the ACPI specification at:
+
+http://uefi.org/specifications
+
+For instance, the contents of the INT3404 ACPI device sysfs directory
+may look as follows::
+
+ $ ls -l /sys/bus/acpi/devices/INT3404:00/
+ total 0
+ ...
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state0
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state1
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state10
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state11
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state2
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state3
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state4
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state5
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state6
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state7
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state8
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 20:38 state9
+ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 13 01:00 status
+ ...
+
+where each of the "state*" files represents one performance state of the fan
+and contains a colon-separated list of 5 integer numbers (fields) with the
+following interpretation::
+
+  control_percent:trip_point_index:speed_rpm:noise_level_mdb:power_mw
+
+* ``control_percent``: The percent value to be used to set the fan speed to a
+  specific level using the _FSL object (0-100).
+
+* ``trip_point_index``: The active cooling trip point number that corresponds
+  to this performance state (0-9).
+
+* ``speed_rpm``: Speed of the fan in rotations per minute.
+
+* ``noise_level_mdb``: Audible noise emitted by the fan in this state in
+  millidecibels.
+
+* ``power_mw``: Power draw of the fan in this state in milliwatts.
+
+For example::
+
+ $cat /sys/bus/acpi/devices/INT3404:00/state1
+ 25:0:3200:12500:1250
+
+When a given field is not populated or its value provided by the platform
+firmware is invalid, the "not-defined" string is shown instead of the value.
+
+ACPI Fan Fine Grain Control
+=============================
+
+When _FIF object specifies support for fine grain control, then fan speed
+can be set from 0 to 100% with the recommended minimum "step size" via
+_FSL object. User can adjust fan speed using thermal sysfs cooling device.
+
+Here use can look at fan performance states for a reference speed (speed_rpm)
+and set it by changing cooling device cur_state. If the fine grain control
+is supported then user can also adjust to some other speeds which are
+not defined in the performance states.
+
+The support of fine grain control is presented via sysfs attribute
+"fine_grain_control". If fine grain control is present, this attribute
+will show "1" otherwise "0".
+
+This sysfs attribute is presented in the same directory as performance states.
+
+ACPI Fan Performance Feedback
+=============================
+
+The optional _FST object provides status information for the fan device.
+This includes field to provide current fan speed in revolutions per minute
+at which the fan is rotating.
+
+This speed is presented in the sysfs using the attribute "fan_speed_rpm",
+in the same directory as performance states.

+================================
+Upgrading ACPI tables via initrd
+================================
+
+What is this about
+==================
+
+If the ACPI_TABLE_UPGRADE compile option is true, it is possible to
+upgrade the ACPI execution environment that is defined by the ACPI tables
+via upgrading the ACPI tables provided by the BIOS with an instrumented,
+modified, more recent version one, or installing brand new ACPI tables.
+
+When building initrd with kernel in a single image, option
+ACPI_TABLE_OVERRIDE_VIA_BUILTIN_INITRD should also be true for this
+feature to work.
+
+For a full list of ACPI tables that can be upgraded/installed, take a look
+at the char `*table_sigs[MAX_ACPI_SIGNATURE];` definition in
+drivers/acpi/tables.c.
+
+All ACPI tables iasl (Intel's ACPI compiler and disassembler) knows should
+be overridable, except:
+
+  - ACPI_SIG_RSDP (has a signature of 6 bytes)
+  - ACPI_SIG_FACS (does not have an ordinary ACPI table header)
+
+Both could get implemented as well.
+
+
+What is this for
+================
+
+Complain to your platform/BIOS vendor if you find a bug which is so severe
+that a workaround is not accepted in the Linux kernel. And this facility
+allows you to upgrade the buggy tables before your platform/BIOS vendor
+releases an upgraded BIOS binary.
+
+This facility can be used by platform/BIOS vendors to provide a Linux
+compatible environment without modifying the underlying platform firmware.
+
+This facility also provides a powerful feature to easily debug and test
+ACPI BIOS table compatibility with the Linux kernel by modifying old
+platform provided ACPI tables or inserting new ACPI tables.
+
+It can and should be enabled in any kernel because there is no functional
+change with not instrumented initrds.
+
+
+How does it work
+================
+::
+
+  # Extract the machine's ACPI tables:
+  cd /tmp
+  acpidump >acpidump
+  acpixtract -a acpidump
+  # Disassemble, modify and recompile them:
+  iasl -d *.dat
+  # For example add this statement into a _PRT (PCI Routing Table) function
+  # of the DSDT:
+  Store("HELLO WORLD", debug)
+  # And increase the OEM Revision. For example, before modification:
+  DefinitionBlock ("DSDT.aml", "DSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "TEMPLATE", 0x00000000)
+  # After modification:
+  DefinitionBlock ("DSDT.aml", "DSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "TEMPLATE", 0x00000001)
+  iasl -sa dsdt.dsl
+  # Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
+  # They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the cpio
+  # archive. Note that if the table put here matches a platform table
+  # (similar Table Signature, and similar OEMID, and similar OEM Table ID)
+  # with a more recent OEM Revision, the platform table will be upgraded by
+  # this table. If the table put here doesn't match a platform table
+  # (dissimilar Table Signature, or dissimilar OEMID, or dissimilar OEM Table
+  # ID), this table will be appended.
+  mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
+  cp dsdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+  # A maximum of "NR_ACPI_INITRD_TABLES (64)" tables are currently allowed
+  # (see osl.c):
+  iasl -sa facp.dsl
+  iasl -sa ssdt1.dsl
+  cp facp.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+  cp ssdt1.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+  # The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first. Other, typically
+  # compressed cpio archives, must be concatenated on top of the uncompressed
+  # one. Following command creates the uncompressed cpio archive and
+  # concatenates the original initrd on top:
+  find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
+  cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
+  # reboot with increased acpi debug level, e.g. boot params:
+  acpi.debug_level=0x2 acpi.debug_layer=0xFFFFFFFF
+  # and check your syslog:
+  [    1.268089] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0._PRT]
+  [    1.272091] [ACPI Debug]  String [0x0B] "HELLO WORLD"
+
+iasl is able to disassemble and recompile quite a lot different,
+also static ACPI tables.
+
+
+Where to retrieve userspace tools
+=================================
+
+iasl and acpixtract are part of Intel's ACPICA project:
+https://acpica.org/
+
+and should be packaged by distributions (for example in the acpica package
+on SUSE).
+
+acpidump can be found in Len Browns pmtools:
+ftp://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/acpidump
+
+This tool is also part of the acpica package on SUSE.
+Alternatively, used ACPI tables can be retrieved via sysfs in latest kernels:

+SSDT Overlays
+=============
+
+In order to support ACPI open-ended hardware configurations (e.g. development
+boards) we need a way to augment the ACPI configuration provided by the firmware
+image. A common example is connecting sensors on I2C / SPI buses on development
+boards.
+
+Although this can be accomplished by creating a kernel platform driver or
+recompiling the firmware image with updated ACPI tables, neither is practical:
+the former proliferates board specific kernel code while the latter requires
+access to firmware tools which are often not publicly available.
+
+Because ACPI supports external references in AML code a more practical
+way to augment firmware ACPI configuration is by dynamically loading
+user defined SSDT tables that contain the board specific information.
+
+For example, to enumerate a Bosch BMA222E accelerometer on the I2C bus of the
+Minnowboard MAX development board exposed via the LSE connector [1], the
+following ASL code can be used::
+
+    DefinitionBlock ("minnowmax.aml", "SSDT", 1, "Vendor", "Accel", 0x00000003)
+    {
+        External (\_SB.I2C6, DeviceObj)
+
+        Scope (\_SB.I2C6)
+        {
+            Device (STAC)
+            {
+                Name (_HID, "BMA222E")
+                Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
+                {
+                    I2cSerialBus (0x0018, ControllerInitiated, 0x00061A80,
+                                AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.I2C6", 0x00,
+                                ResourceConsumer, ,)
+                    GpioInt (Edge, ActiveHigh, Exclusive, PullDown, 0x0000,
+                            "\\_SB.GPO2", 0x00, ResourceConsumer, , )
+                    { // Pin list
+                        0
+                    }
+                })
+
+                Method (_CRS, 0, Serialized)
+                {
+                    Return (RBUF)
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+which can then be compiled to AML binary format::
+
+    $ iasl minnowmax.asl
+
+    Intel ACPI Component Architecture
+    ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20140214-64 [Mar 29 2014]

+
+    ASL Input:     minnomax.asl - 30 lines, 614 bytes, 7 keywords
+    AML Output:    minnowmax.aml - 165 bytes, 6 named objects, 1 executable opcodes
+
+[1] https://www.elinux.org/Minnowboard:MinnowMax#Low_Speed_Expansion_.28Top.29
+
+The resulting AML code can then be loaded by the kernel using one of the methods
+below.
+
+Loading ACPI SSDTs from initrd
+==============================
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from initrd and it is useful
+when the system does not support EFI or when there is not enough EFI storage.
+
+It works in a similar way with initrd based ACPI tables override/upgrade: SSDT
+AML code must be placed in the first, uncompressed, initrd under the
+"kernel/firmware/acpi" path. Multiple files can be used and this will translate
+in loading multiple tables. Only SSDT and OEM tables are allowed. See
+initrd_table_override.txt for more details.
+
+Here is an example::
+
+    # Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
+    # They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the
+    # cpio archive.
+    # The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first.
+    # Other, typically compressed cpio archives, must be
+    # concatenated on top of the uncompressed one.
+    mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
+    cp ssdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+
+    # Create the uncompressed cpio archive and concatenate the original initrd
+    # on top:
+    find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
+    cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
+
+Loading ACPI SSDTs from EFI variables
+=====================================
+
+This is the preferred method, when EFI is supported on the platform, because it
+allows a persistent, OS independent way of storing the user defined SSDTs. There
+is also work underway to implement EFI support for loading user defined SSDTs
+and using this method will make it easier to convert to the EFI loading
+mechanism when that will arrive. To enable it, the
+CONFIG_EFI_CUSTOM_SSDT_OVERLAYS should be chosen to y.
+
+In order to load SSDTs from an EFI variable the ``"efivar_ssdt=..."`` kernel
+command line parameter can be used (the name has a limitation of 16 characters).
+The argument for the option is the variable name to use. If there are multiple
+variables with the same name but with different vendor GUIDs, all of them will
+be loaded.
+
+In order to store the AML code in an EFI variable the efivarfs filesystem can be
+used. It is enabled and mounted by default in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars in all
+recent distribution.
+
+Creating a new file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will automatically create a new
+EFI variable. Updating a file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will update the EFI
+variable. Please note that the file name needs to be specially formatted as
+"Name-GUID" and that the first 4 bytes in the file (little-endian format)
+represent the attributes of the EFI variable (see EFI_VARIABLE_MASK in
+include/linux/efi.h). Writing to the file must also be done with one write
+operation.
+
+For example, you can use the following bash script to create/update an EFI
+variable with the content from a given file::
+
+    #!/bin/sh -e
+
+    while [ -n "$1" ]; do
+            case "$1" in
+            "-f") filename="$2"; shift;;
+            "-g") guid="$2"; shift;;
+            *) name="$1";;
+            esac
+            shift
+    done
+
+    usage()
+    {
+            echo "Syntax: ${0##*/} -f filename [ -g guid ] name"
+            exit 1
+    }
+
+    [ -n "$name" -a -f "$filename" ] || usage
+
+    EFIVARFS="/sys/firmware/efi/efivars"
+
+    [ -d "$EFIVARFS" ] || exit 2
+
+    if stat -tf $EFIVARFS | grep -q -v de5e81e4; then
+            mount -t efivarfs none $EFIVARFS
+    fi
+
+    # try to pick up an existing GUID
+    [ -n "$guid" ] || guid=$(find "$EFIVARFS" -name "$name-*" | head -n1 | cut -f2- -d-)
+
+    # use a randomly generated GUID
+    [ -n "$guid" ] || guid="$(cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid)"
+
+    # efivarfs expects all of the data in one write
+    tmp=$(mktemp)
+    /bin/echo -ne "\007\000\000\000" | cat - $filename > $tmp
+    dd if=$tmp of="$EFIVARFS/$name-$guid" bs=$(stat -c %s $tmp)
+    rm $tmp
+
+Loading ACPI SSDTs from configfs
+================================
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from user space via the configfs
+interface. The CONFIG_ACPI_CONFIGFS option must be select and configfs must be
+mounted. In the following examples, we assume that configfs has been mounted in
+/sys/kernel/config.
+
+New tables can be loading by creating new directories in /sys/kernel/config/acpi/table
+and writing the SSDT AML code in the aml attribute::
+
+    cd /sys/kernel/config/acpi/table
+    mkdir my_ssdt
+    cat ~/ssdt.aml > my_ssdt/aml
