Changes in TODO

Changes in TODO http://nxr.netbsd.org/rss/src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO en Copyright 2005 Java Note some long-term difficult goals. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.13 Thu Jun 23 16:56:07 UTC 2011 jruoho Merge P-state support for acpicpu(4). Remarks: 1. All processors (x86 or not) for which the vendor has implemented ACPI I/O access routines are supported. Native instructions are currently supported only for Intel's "Enhanced Speedstep". Code for "PowerNow!" (AMD) will be merged later. Native support for VIA's "PowerSaver" will be investigated. 2. Backwards compatibility with existing userland code is maintained. Comparable to the case with cpu_idle(9), the ACPI CPU driver installs alternative functions for the existing sysctl(8) controls. The "native" behavior (if any) is restored upon detachment. 3. The dynamic nature of ACPI-provided P-states needs more investigation. The maximum frequency induced (but not forced) by the firmware may change dynamically. Currently, the sysctl(8) controls error out with a value larger than the dynamic maximum. The code itself does not however yet react to the notifications from the firmware by changing the frequencies in-place. Presumably the system administrator should be able to choose whether to use dynamic or static frequencies. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.12 Sun Aug 08 16:58:42 UTC 2010 jruoho branches: 1.11.74; 1.11.96; 1.11.98; I fixed the cardbus bus enumeration problem awhile back, but the interrupt fixup problems remain. Adjust TODO comments to match, and add a link to cube's comments. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.11 Wed Dec 21 08:48:25 UTC 2005 sekiya branches: 1.10.2; 1.10.14; The "implicit return" problem is already fixed since when I imported ACPICA_PEDANTIC changes from FreeBSD. Added one item (processor driver). /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.10 Wed Jun 09 16:48:49 UTC 2004 kochi Remove the first one (split _REG initialization path into two phases; which has been done since post-20031203 version of ACPI-CA). Pointed out by mycroft. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.9 Mon Jun 07 15:30:03 UTC 2004 kochi Remove a couple of items that are done now. XXX Is the first one also done? /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.8 Sat Jun 05 03:14:45 UTC 2004 mycroft Fix date in previous (shouldn't the entry just be removed?). /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.7 Tue Mar 30 16:46:58 UTC 2004 wiz ECDT support is complete. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.6 Tue Mar 30 15:51:53 UTC 2004 kochi Remove acpiec locking from the list. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.5 Mon Nov 03 20:16:46 UTC 2003 mycroft Add another item, and some comments on particular machines affected. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.4 Mon Nov 03 05:41:06 UTC 2003 mycroft Add another one. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.3 Sun Nov 02 19:42:03 UTC 2003 mycroft Dropped a word... /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.2 Sat Nov 01 23:22:54 UTC 2003 mycroft A small list of things needed here. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.1 Sat Nov 01 23:22:21 UTC 2003 mycroft sync with head. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.10.14.1 Wed Jun 21 15:02:31 UTC 2006 yamt Sync with HEAD /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.10.2.2 Tue Aug 03 10:45:03 UTC 2004 skrll file TODO was added on branch ktrace-lwp on 2004-08-03 10:45:03 +0000 /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.10.2.1 Wed Jun 09 16:48:49 UTC 2004 skrll sync with head /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.11.98.1 Sat Mar 05 20:53:01 UTC 2011 rmind Sync with HEAD. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.11.96.1 Tue Aug 17 06:45:58 UTC 2010 uebayasi sync with head. /src/sys/dev/acpi/TODO - 1.11.74.1 Wed Aug 11 22:53:15 UTC 2010 yamt
