[V3 PATCH 0/2] Introduce ACPI support for ahci_platform driver

From: Suravee Suthikulpanit
Date: Sun Feb 08 2015 - 11:20:41 EST


This patch series introduce ACPI support for non-PCI AHCI platform driver.
Existing ACPI support for AHCI assumes the device controller is a PCI device.

Also, since there is no ACPI _HID/_CID for generic AHCI controller, the driver
could not use them for matching devices. Therefore, this patch introduces
a mechanism for drivers to match devices using ACPI _CLS method.

This patch series is rebased from and tested with:

http://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/acpi.git acpi-5.1-v8

This topic was discussed earlier here (as part of introducing support for
AMD Seattle SATA controller):

Changes from V2 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/5/662)
* Update with review comment from Rafael in patch 1/2
* Rebased and tested with acpi-5.1-v8

Changes from V1 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/19/345)
* Rebased to 3.19.0-rc2
* Change from acpi_cls in device_driver to acpi_match_cls (Hanjun comment)
* Change the matching logic in acpi_driver_match_device() due to the new
special PRP0001 _HID.
* Simplify the return type of acpi_match_device_cls() to boolean.

Changes from RFC (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/17/446)
* Remove #ifdef and make non-ACPI version of the acpi_match_device_cls
as inline. (per Arnd)
* Simplify logic to retrieve and evaluate _CLS handle. (per Hanjun)
