This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation.
The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to
many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it.
FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles
the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory
resources.
I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use:
- The API is to simple, important functions are missing
- A fifo can be only allocated dynamically
- There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not
- There is no support for data records inside a fifo
So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up
the API to much. The new API has the following benefits:
- Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver.
- Provide an API for the most use case.
- Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions.
- Linux style habit.
- DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros
- Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo.
- The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an
indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator.
- Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo,
which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary.
- Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if
one is required.
- Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported:
- Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size
field of 1 bytes.
- Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size
field of 2 bytes.
- Fixed size records, which no record size field.
- Preserve memory resource.
- Performance!
- Easy to use!
This patch:
Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object,
reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data
structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init
prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This
patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

Disable volume control by default. It can be enabled at module load
time by a module parameter (volume_control=1).
The audio control mixer that thinkpad-acpi interacts with is fully
functional without any drivers, and operated by hotkeys.
The idea behind the console audio control is that the human operator
is the only one that can interact with it. The ThinkVantage suite in
Windows does not allow any software-based overrides, and only does OSD
(on-screen-display) functions.
The Linux driver will, with the addition of the ALSA interface, try to
follow and enforce the ThinkVantage UI design:
The user is supposed to use the keyboard hotkeys to interact with the
console audio control. The kernel and the desktop environment is
supposed to cooperate to provide proper user feedback through
on-screen-display functions.
Distros are urged to not to enable volume control by default.
Enabling this must be a local admin's decision. This is the reason
why there is no Kconfig option.
Keep in mind that all ThinkPads have a normal, main mixer (AC97 or
HDA) for regular software-based audio control. We are not talking
about that mixer here.
Advanced users are, of course, free to enable volume control and do as
they please.

Lenovo removed the extra mixer since the T61 and thereabouts.
Newer Lenovo models only have the mute gate function, and leave
the volume control to the HDA mixer.
Until a way to automatically query the firmware about its audio
control capabilities is discovered (there might not be any), use a
white/black list.
We will likely need to ask T60 (old and new model) and Z60/Z61 users
whether they have volume control to populate the black/white list.
Meanwhile, provide a volume_capabilities parameter that can be used to
override the defaults.

I don't trust the coupled EC writes and SMI calls the current volume
control code does very much, although it is exactly what the IBM DSDTs
seem to do (they never do more than a single step though).
Change the driver to stop issuing SMIs, and just drive the EC directly
to the desired level (DSDTs seem to confirm this will work even on
very old models like the 570 and 600e/x).
We checkpoint directly to NVRAM (this can be turned off) at
suspend/shutdown/driver unload, which from what I can see in tbp,
should also work on every ThinkPad.

Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
spaces from strings all over the tree.
It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:

Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".

Newer Dell systems support HotKey features differently from legacy
systems. A new vendor specifc HotKey SMBIOS table (Type 0xB2) is
defined. This table contains a mapping between scancode and the
corresponding predefined keyfunction ( i.e. keycode).. Also, a new
ACPI-WMI event type (called KeyIDList) with a value of 0x0010 is
defined. Any BIOS containing 0xB2 table will send hotkey notifications
using KeyIDList event.

- Volumn Up
- Volumn Down
- Mute
- Screen Lock (Fn+F2)
- Battery Status (Fn+F3)
- WLAN switch (Fn+F5)
- Video output switch (Fn+F7)
- Touchpad switch (Fn+F8)
- Screen Magnifier (Fn+Space)
The following function of Lenovo SL laptop is still need to be enabled:
- Hotkey: KEY_SUSPEND (Fn+F4), KEY_SLEEP (Fn+F12), Dock Eject (Fn+F9)
- Rfkill for bluetooth and wlan
- LenovoCare LED
- Hwmon for fan speed

Callback methods should not refer to a variable like "eeepc" (formally
"ehotk"). Instead, they should extract the data they need either from
a "driver data" parameter, or the "driver data" field of the object
which they operate on. The "eeepc" variable can then be removed.
In practice, drivers under "drivers/platform" can get away without using
driver data, because it doesn't make sense to have more than one
instance of them. However this makes it harder to review them for
correctness. This is especially true for core ACPI developers who have
not previously been exposed to this anti-pattern :-).
This will serve as an example of best practice for new driver writers
(whether they find it themselves, or have it pointed out during review
:-).
The hwmon sub-device is a special case. It uses ec_{read,write} which
are defined to communicate with the (first) EC, so it does not require
any driver data. It should still only be instantiated in the context of
an ASUS010 device because we don't have a safe way to probe for it.

eeepc-laptop now does a lot more than just hotkeys. Replace the "hotk"
names used throughout the driver with some slightly more appropriate
names. The actual strings used in kernel messages and sysfs are left
unchanged.
e.g.
EEEPC_HOTK_FILE -> EEEPC_LAPTOP_FILE
EEEPC_HOTK_HID -> EEEPC_ACPI_HID
eeepc_hotk_notify -> eeepc_acpi_notify
struct eeepc_hotk -> struct eeepc_laptop
ehotk -> eeepc
I'm about to refactor the entire driver to remove the global "ehotk"
variable, and I don't wish to add "struct eeepc_hotk *ehotk" to
functions which have nothing to do with hotkeys.
Also
- fix the name of "eepc_get_entry_by_keycode()"
- remove the unused definition of NOTIFY_WLAN_ON.

to, and remove the forward declarations. The code itself should remain
unchanged.
The eeepc-laptop driver implements a number of interfaces like the
backlight class driver. This change makes it easier to examine the
implementation of one interface at at a time, without having to search
through the file to find init() and exit() functions etc.
