This patch adds a userspace tool to access Linux kernel AML debugger
interface.
Tow modes are supported by this tool:
1. Interactive: Users are able to launch a debugging shell to talk with
in-kernel AML debugger.
Note that it's user duty to ensure kernel runtime integrity by using
this debugging tool:
A. Some control methods evaluated by the users may result in kernel
panics if those control methods shouldn't be evaluated by the OSPMs
according to the current BIOS/OS configurations.
B. Currently if a single stepping evaluation couldn't run to an end,
then the synchronization primitives acquired by the evaluation may
block normal OSPM control method evaluations.
2. Batch: Users are able to execute debugger commands in a script.
Note that in addition to the above duties, it's user duty to ensure
script runtime integrity by using this debugging tool in this mode:
C. Currently only those commands that are not used for single stepping
are suitable to be used in this mode.
D. If the execution of the command may cause a failure that could result
in an endless kernel execution, the execution of the script may also
get blocked.
To exit the utility, currently "exit/quit" commands are recommended, but
ctrl-C" can also be used.

This patch splits tools/power/acpi/Makefile to support descend compling for
ACPI tools. In this patch tools/ec related stuff is removed as it is
originally not enabled.
Also a missing .o (utnonansi.o) is added to the acpidump/Makefile.

This patch uses abstract file IO and acpi_log_error() APIs to enhance
cm_get_file_size() so that applications that invoke this API could have
portability improved.
With actual references added to abstract file IO and acpi_log_error(), the
applications need to link oslibcfs.o, utdebug.o, utexcep.o, utmath.o,
utprint.o and utxferror.o.
It is also required to add acpi_os_initialize() invocations if an
application starts to use acpi_log_error().
acpidump has already invoked acpi_os_initialize() in this way. Lv Zheng.

This patch is mainly for acpidump where there are redundant
acpi_os_printf()/acpi_os_vprintf() stubs implemented. This patch cleans up such
specific implementation by linking acpidump to osunixxf.c/oswinxf.c.
To make acpi_os_printf() exported by osunixxf.c/oswinxf.c to behave as the
old acpidump specific ones, applications need to:
1. Initialize acpi_gbl_db_output_flags to ACPI_DB_CONSOLE_OUTPUT.
This is automatically done by ACPI_INIT_GLOBAL(), applications need to
link utglobal.o to utilize this mechanism.
2. Initialize acpi_gbl_output_file to stdout.
For GCC, assigning stdout to acpi_gbl_output_file using ACPI_INIT_GLOBAL()
is not possible as stdout is not a constant in GCC environment. As an
alternative solution, stdout assignment is put into acpi_os_initialize().
Thus acpi_os_initialize() need to be invoked very early by the
applications to initialize the default output of acpi_os_printf().
This patch also releases osunixxf.c to the Linux kernel. Lv Zheng.

The utglobal.c is used to define and initialize global variables. It makes
sense if just adding utglobal.o to applications that are using such
variables. But acpi_ut_init_globals() is preventing us from doing so as
this initialization function references other components' initializations
code, which leads to the requirement that many files should also get linked
if one wants to link utglobal.o.
It is possible to just move acpi_ut_init_global() to utinit.c for
applications that require this function to link.
By linking utglobal.o, we can stop defining DEFINE_ACPI_GLOBALS for
applications (currently only acpidump is affected). Lv Zheng.

* pm-tools:
cpupower: Remove mc and smt power aware scheduler info/settings

cpupower: Rename cpufrequtils -> cpupower, and libcpufreq -> libcpupower.
PM / tools: cpupower: add option to display values without round offs
tools / power: turbostat: Drop temperature checks
This userspace tool accesses the EC through the ec_sys debug driver
(through /sys/kernel/debug/ec/ec0/io).
The EC command/data registers cannot be accessed directly, because they
may be manipulated by the AML interpreter in parallel.
The ec_sys driver synchronizes user space (debug) access with the AML
interpreter.

This patch updates tools Makefile to use new acpidump.
ACPICA's acpidump relies on various ACPICA components/common/os_specific
source code. They are located in various kernel folders, being searched
and compiled using vpath technique in Makefile. These files include:
1. drivers/acpi/acpica/acapps.h
2. tools/power/acpi/common/getopt.c
3. tools/power/acpi/common/cmfsize.c
4. tools/power/acpi/os_specific/service_layers/oslinuxtbl.c
5. tools/power/acpi/os_specific/service_layers/osunixdir.c
6. tools/power/acpi/os_specific/service_layers/osunixmap.c
This patch has been tested on DELL Inspiron Mini, acpidump output can be
successfully generated by typing the following commands:
# cd tools/power/acpi
# make DEBUG=false
# sudo make install DESTDIR=/opt
# sudo make uninstall DESTDIR=/opt
# make clean
Or
# cd tools
# make acpi
# sudo make acpi_install
# sudo make acpi_uninstall
# make acpi_clean
A kernel build test is also performed on DELL Inspiron Mini to verify that
the changes done to actypes.h and aclinux.h won't affect the kernel
build process.

This patch cleans up old tools/power/acpi Makefile for further porting,
make it compiled in a similar way as the other tools. No functional
changes.
The CFLAGS is modified as follows:
1. Previous cc flags:
-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Os -s \
-D_LINUX -DDEFINE_ALTERNATE_TYPES -I../../../include
2. Current cc flags:
DEBUG=false:
-D_LINUX -DDEFINE_ALTERNATE_TYPES -I../../../include -Wall \
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Os \
-fomit-frame-pointer
Normal:
-D_LINUX -DDEFINE_ALTERNATE_TYPES -I../../../include -Wall \
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement -O1 -g -DDEBUG
There is only one difference: -fomit-frame-pointer.
