[PATCH 0/3] - Altix: Add initial ACPI IO support

From: John Keller
Date: Fri Sep 01 2006 - 11:58:36 EST


Patch set to add initial ACPI IO support to Altix.

1/3 acpi-base-support.patch
When booting with an ACPI capable PROM, the
DSDT will now define the system nodes and root
PCI busses. An Altix specific ACPI driver will be
registered for the node devices, while the
standard acpi_pci_root_driver can now scan
the PCI busses, eliminating the need for the current
fixup code to manually initiate the scan. Multiple SAL
calls are no longer needed, as platform specific info
is now passed via the ACPI vendor resource descriptor
(though all the old fixup code still remains due
to backward compatability requirements).

A new platform vector for bus_fixup is created.
The size of io_space[] is increased to support large
IO configurations.

2/3 acpi-hotplug.patch
Make necessary changes to hotplug code now that
bus fixup is done via platform vector.

3/3 acpi-rom-shadow.patch
Provide support for PROM shadowing of a ROM image.
