[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 0/5] add ACPI node for fw_cfg on pc and arm

[Gabriel L. Somlo]

New since v5:

        - rebased on top of latest QEMU git master

Thanks,
  --Gabriel

>New since v4:

>       - rebased on top of Marc's DMA series
>       - drop machine compat dependency for insertion into x86/ssdt
>         (patch 3/5), following agreement between Igor and Eduardo
>       - [mm]io register range now covers DMA register as well, if
>         available.
>       - s/bios/firmware in doc file updates

>>New since v3:

>>      - rebased to work on top of 87e896ab (introducing pc-*-25 classes),
>>        inserting fw_cfg acpi node only for machines >= 2.5.
>>
>>      - reintroduce _STA with value 0x0B (bit 2 for u/i visibility turned
>>        off to avoid Windows complaining -- thanks Igor for catching that!)
>>
>>If there's any other feedback besides questions regarding the

>>>New since v2:
>>>
>>>     - pc/i386 node in ssdt only on machine types *newer* than 2.4
>>>       (as suggested by Eduardo)
>>>
>>>I appreciate any further comments and reviews. Hopefully we can make
>>>this palatable for upstream, modulo the lingering concerns about whether
>>>"QEMU0002" is ok to use as the value of _HID, which I'll hopefully get
>>>sorted out with the kernel crew...

Gabriel L. Somlo (5):
  fw_cfg: expose control register size in fw_cfg.h
  pc: fw_cfg: move ioport base constant to pc.h
  acpi: pc: add fw_cfg device node to ssdt
  acpi: arm: add fw_cfg device node to dsdt
  fw_cfg: document ACPI device node information
