Add a function to "struct device_operations" to return the ACPI name
for the device, and helper functions to find this name (either from
the device or its parent) and to build a fully qualified ACPI path
from the root device.
This addition will allow device drivers to generate their ACPI AML in
the SSDT at boot, with customization supplied by devicetree.cb,
instead of needing custom DSDT ASL for every mainboard.
The root device acpi_name is defined as "\\_SB" and is used to start
the path when building a fully qualified name.
This requires SOC support to provide handlers for returning the ACPI
name for devices that it owns, and those names must match the objects
declared in the DSDT. The handler can be done either in each device
driver or with a global handler for the entire SOC.
Simplified example of how this can be used for an i2c device declared
in devicetree.cb with:
chip soc/intel/skylake # "\_SB" (from root device)
device domain 0 on # "PCI0"
device pci 19.2 on # "I2C4"
chip drivers/i2c/test0
device i2c 1a.0 on end # "TST0"
end
end
end
end
And basic SSDT generating code in the device driver:
acpigen_write_scope(acpi_device_scope(dev));
acpigen_write_device(acpi_device_name(dev));
acpigen_write_string("_HID", "TEST0000");
acpigen_write_byte("_UID", 0);
acpigen_pop_len(); /* device */
acpigen_pop_len(); /* scope */
Will produce this ACPI code:
Scope (\_SB.PCI0.I2C4) {
Device (TST0) {
Name (_HID, "TEST0000")
Name (_UID, 0)
}
}

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * make * gcc / g++ Because Linux distribution compilers tend to use lots of patches. coreboot does lots of "unusual" things in its build system, some of which break due to those patches, sometimes by gcc aborting, sometimes - and that's worse - by generating broken object code. Two options: use our toolchain (eg. make crosstools-i386) or enable the ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case). * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig' and 'make nconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------ If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
