Merge r203622 from head:

2010-03-17T20:39:21Z

Add support for a few more Sony-specific ACPI features (default display brightness, wired LAN power and bass gain), and update the description of one previously unknown feature (display contrast). While here, expand on a comment and remove two defines left over from an old version of the code. Also update man page to document the above changes, and correct grammar. PR: kern/127581

MFC r201605: Update acpi_ibm syctl nodes on resume.

2010-01-17T06:24:09Z

MFC 197460:

2009-10-29T15:13:36Z

Remove unnecessary locking from attach(). This fixes a LOR between the acpi_ibm lock and the sysctl lock.

MFC 197415:

2009-09-25T15:14:11Z

The elements in the component arrays may be direct Package objects rather than references to objects. In that case, simply use the Package directly. Approved by: re (kib)

MFC 197350:

2009-09-23T15:56:09Z

Re-remove the IBM0057 ID used for PS/2 mouse controllers. The asl for the 61p includes the hotkey device as IBM0068 and the mouse as IBM0057 similar to other systems. Approved by: re (kensmith)

acpi_hp.c:

2009-07-03T21:12:37Z

- sysctl dev.acpi_hp.0.verbose to toggle debug output - A modification so this can deal with different array lengths when reading the CMI BIOS - now it works ok on HP Compaq nx7300 as well. - Change behaviour to query only max_instance-1 CMI BIOS instances, because all HPs seen so far are broken in that respect (or there is a fundamental misunderstanding on my side, possible as well). This way a disturbing ACPI Error Field exceeds Buffer message is avoided. - New bit to set on dev.acpi_hp.0.cmi_detail (0x8) to also query the highest guid instance of CMI bios acpi_hp.4: - Document dev.acpi_hp.0.verbose sysctl in man page - Document new bit for dev.acpi_hp.0.cmi_detail - Add a section to manpage about hardware that has been reported to work ok Submitted by: Michael Gmelin Approved by: re (kib) MFC after: 2 weeks

acpi_wmi_if:

2009-06-30T09:51:41Z

- Document different semantics for ACPI_WMI_PROVIDES_GUID_STRING_METHOD acpi_wmi.c: - Modify acpi_wmi_provides_guid_string_method to return absolut number of instances known for the given GUID. acpi_hp.c: - sysctl dev.acpi_hp.0.verbose to toggle debug output - A modification so this can deal with different array lengths when reading the CMI BIOS - now it works ok on HP Compaq nx7300 as well. - Change behaviour to query only max_instance-1 CMI BIOS instances, because all HPs seen so far are broken in that respect (or there is a fundamental misunderstanding on my side, possible as well).
