In fact, what we need seems to be invoking acpi_ev_gpe_dispatch()
right after enabling an GPE. So there are 2 conditions related:
1. GPE is enabled for the first time.
2. GPE is initialized.

And we need to make sure that before acpi_update_all_gpes() is invoked,
all GPE EN bits are actually disabled.
What if we do this in this way:


Thanks and best regards

But we don't do it today, do we?

And still calling _dispatch() should not be incorrect even if the GPE
has been enabled already at this point.  Worst case it just will
queue up the execution of _Lxx/_Exx which may or may not do anything
useful.

And BTW this is all done under acpi_gbl_gpe_lock so acpi_ev_gpe_detect()
will block on it if run concurrently and we've checked the status, so
we know that the GPE *should* be dispatched, so I sort of fail to see
the problem.

Thanks,
Rafael

We don't do that.

There is another problem related:
ACPICA clears GPEs before enabling it.
This is proven to be wrong, and we have to fix it:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196249

without fixing this issue, in this solution, we surely need to save the
GPE STS bit before incrementing GPE reference count, and poll it according
to the saved STS bit. Because if we poll it after enabling, STS bit will
be wrongly cleared.

So if we can do this on top of the "GPE clear" fix, things can be done
in a simpler way - invoke acpi_ev_gpe_detect() after fully initializing
GPEs (as what I pasted).

However I should say - merging "GPE clear" fix might be risky.
So this patch can be in upstream prior than the simpler solution to leave
us a stable base line.

I'll send out the simpler solution along with the "GPE clear" fix.
Maybe you can consider to ship it after merging this patch.

Thanks and best regards
Lv

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but why would we poll it?

In the $subject patch the status is checked and then
acpi_ev_add_gpe_reference() is called to add a reference to the GPE.

If this is the first reference (which will be the case in the majority
of cases), acpi_ev_enable_gpe() will be called and that will clear the
status.

Then, acpi_ev_gpe_dispatch() is called if the status was set and that
itself doesn't check the status.  It disables the GPE upfront (so the
status doesn't matter from now on until the GPE is enabled again) and
clears the status unconditionally if the GPE is edge-triggered.  This
means that for edge-triggered GPEs the clearing of the status by
acpi_ev_enable_gpe() doesn't matter here.

For level-triggered GPEs the status is not cleared by acpi_ev_gpe_dispatch()
itself, but _Lxx is executed (again, without checking the status) and
finally the status is cleared by acpi_ev_finish_gpe() anyway, so we
end up with cleared status no matter what (and that before re-enabling
the GPE).  End even if _Lxx itself checked the status (but honestly why
would it?), then this is a level-triggered GPE, so it will re-trigger
anyway if not handled this time.

So it looks like the fact that acpi_ev_enable_gpe() clears the status before
enabling the GPE doesn't matter for this patch, although it may matter in
general, but that is a different (and somewhat related) issue.

Thanks,
Rafael

No problem, I understood.
And was thinking thought this patch [edge GPE dispatch fix] should be
correct and good for current Linux upstream.

What I meant is:
PATCH [edge GPE clear fix] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9894983/
is a fix we need for upstream as it is the only possible fix for the
issue fixed by it.
On top of that, when acpi_ev_enable_gpe() is called, GPE won't be cleared.
and then things can be done in a simpler way:
PATCH [edge GPE enable fix] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9894989/

As [edge GPE clear fix] is risky, I think [edge GPE dispatch fix] is OK
for Linux upstream.

So we can have 2 processes:
1. Merge [edge GPE dispatch fix] and let [edge GPE clear fix] and
   [edge GPE enable fix] released from ACPICA upstream so that:
   1. We can enhance them in ACPICA upstream.
   2. It will be regression safer for us to merge [edge GPE clear fix].
2. Merge [edge GPE clear fix] and [edge GPE enable fix] without
   merging [edge GPE dispatch fix].

What I meant is:
It's up to you to decide which process we should take. :)

Let's skip level-triggered GPE case.

OK

So I would go with what is already there in my tree.  Please work on top of
