[PATCH v3 05/25] acpi, acpica: Split acpi_tb_install_table() into two parts.

From: Tang Chen
Date: Wed Aug 07 2013 - 06:59:32 EST


In ACPI, SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) contains NUMA info.
The memory affinities in SRAT record every memory range in the
system, and also, flags specifying if the memory range is
hotpluggable.
(Please refer to ACPI spec 5.0 5.2.16)

memblock starts to work at very early time, and SRAT has not been
parsed. So we don't know which memory is hotpluggable. In order
to use memblock to reserve hotpluggable memory, we need to obtain
SRAT memory affinity info earlier.

In the current kernel, the acpica code iterates acpi_gbl_root_table_list,
and install all the acpi tables into it at boot time. First, it
tries to find if there is any override table in global list
acpi_tables_addr. If any, use the override table. Otherwise, it
will install the tables provided by firmware. Like the following:

setup_arch()
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* Initialize acpi_tables_addr with all override table. */
|...
|->acpi_boot_table_init()
|->acpi_table_init()
|->acpi_initialize_tables()
|->acpi_tb_parse_root_table() /* Parse RSDT or XSDT, find all tables in firmware */
|->for (each item in acpi_gbl_root_table_list)
|->acpi_tb_install_table()
|-> ...... /* Install one single table */
|->acpi_tb_table_override() /* Override one single table */

It does the table installation one by one.

In order to find SRAT at earlier time, we want to initialize
acpi_gbl_root_table_list earlier. But at the same time, keep
ACPI_INITRD_TABLE_OVERRIDE procedure works as well.

The basic idea is, split the acpi_gbl_root_table_list initialization
procedure into two steps:
1. Install all tables from firmware, not one by one.
2. Override any table if necessary, not one by one.

After this patch-set, it will work like this:

setup_arch()
|-> ...... /* Install all tables from firmware (Step 1) */
|-> ...... /* Try to find if any override SRAT in initrd file, if yes, use it */
|-> ...... /* Use the SRAT from firmware */
|-> ...... /* memblock starts to work */
|-> ......
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* Initialize acpi_tables_addr with all override table. */
|...
|-> ...... /* Do the table override work for all tables (Step 2) */


In order to achieve this goal, we have to split all the following functions:

ACPICA:
acpi_tb_install_table()
acpi_tb_parse_root_table()
acpi_initialize_tables()

acpi:
acpi_table_init()
acpi_boot_table_init()

Since ACPICA code is not just used by the Linux, so we should keep the ACPICA
side interfaces unmodified, and introduce new functions used in Linux.


This patch split acpi_tb_install_table() into two steps, and introduce two new
functions:
acpi_tb_install_table_firmware() and acpi_tb_install_table_override(),
which will be used later in Linux.
