Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

---help---
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) support for
Linux requires an ACPI compliant platform (hardware/firmware),
and assumes the presence of OS-directed configuration and power
management (OSPM) software. This option will enlarge your
kernel by about 70K.
Linux ACPI provides a robust functional replacement for several
legacy configuration and power management interfaces, including
the Plug-and-Play BIOS specification (PnP BIOS), the
MultiProcessor Specification (MPS), and the Advanced Power
Management (APM) specification. If both ACPI and APM support
are configured, whichever is loaded first shall be used.
The ACPI SourceForge project contains the latest source code,
documentation, tools, mailing list subscription, and other
information. This project is available at:
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi>
Linux support for ACPI is based on Intel Corporation's ACPI
Component Architecture (ACPI CA). For more information see:
<http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi>
ACPI is an open industry specification co-developed by Compaq,
Intel, Microsoft, Phoenix, and Toshiba. The specification is
available at:
<http://www.acpi.info>

config ACPI_SLEEP
bool "Sleep States (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on X86
depends on EXPERIMENTAL && PM
default y
---help---
This option adds support for ACPI suspend states.
With this option, you will be able to put the system "to sleep".
Sleep states are low power states for the system and devices. All
of the system operating state is saved to either memory or disk
(depending on the state), to allow the system to resume operation
quickly at your request.
Although this option sounds really nifty, barely any of the device
drivers have been converted to the new driver model and hence few
have proper power management support.
This option is not recommended for anyone except those doing driver
power management development.
config ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS
bool
depends on ACPI_SLEEP && PROC_FS
default y
config ACPI_AC
tristate "AC Adapter"
depends on X86
default m
help
This driver adds support for the AC Adapter object, which indicates
whether a system is on AC, or not. Typically, only mobile systems
have this object, since desktops are always on AC.
config ACPI_BATTERY
tristate "Battery"
depends on X86
default m
help
This driver adds support for battery information through
/proc/acpi/battery. If you have a mobile system with a battery,
say Y.
config ACPI_BUTTON
tristate "Button"
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default m
help
This driver registers for events based on buttons, such as the
power, sleep, and lid switch. In the future, a daemon will read
/proc/acpi/event and perform user-defined actions such as shutting
down the system. Until then, you can cat it, and see output when
a button is pressed.
config ACPI_VIDEO
tristate "Video"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default m
help
This driver implement the ACPI Extensions For Display Adapters
for integrated graphics devices on motherboard, as specified in
ACPI 2.0 Specification, Appendix B, allowing to perform some basic
control like defining the video POST device, retrieving EDID information
or to setup a video output, etc.
Note that this is an ref. implementation only. It may or may not work
for your integrated video device.
config ACPI_FAN
tristate "Fan"
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default m
help
This driver adds support for ACPI fan devices, allowing user-mode
applications to perform basic fan control (on, off, status).
config ACPI_PROCESSOR
tristate "Processor"
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default m
help
This driver installs ACPI as the idle handler for Linux, and uses
ACPI C2 and C3 processor states to save power, on systems that
support it.
config ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU
bool "Processor Hotplug (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on ACPI_PROCESSOR && HOTPLUG_CPU && EXPERIMENTAL
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
select ACPI_CONTAINER
default n
---help---
Select this option if your platform support physical CPU hotplug.
config ACPI_THERMAL
tristate "Thermal Zone"
depends on ACPI_PROCESSOR
default m
help
This driver adds support for ACPI thermal zones. Most mobile and
some desktop systems support ACPI thermal zones. It is HIGHLY
recommended that this option be enabled, as your processor(s)
may be damaged without it.
config ACPI_NUMA

default y if IA64_GENERIC || IA64_SGI_SN2
config ACPI_ASUS
tristate "ASUS/Medion Laptop Extras"
depends on X86
default m
---help---
This driver provides support for extra features of ACPI-compatible
ASUS laptops. As some of Medion laptops are made by ASUS, it may also
support some Medion laptops (such as 9675 for example). It makes all
the extra buttons generate standard ACPI events that go through
/proc/acpi/events, and (on some models) adds support for changing the
display brightness and output, switching the LCD backlight on and off,
and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs intended
for reporting mail and wireless status.
Note: display switching code is currently considered EXPERIMENTAL,
toying with these values may even lock your machine.
All settings are changed via /proc/acpi/asus directory entries. Owner
and group for these entries can be set with asus_uid and asus_gid
parameters.
More information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra buttons
at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi4asus/>.
If you have an ACPI-compatible ASUS laptop, say Y or M here. This
driver is still under development, so if your laptop is unsupported or
something works not quite as expected, please use the mailing list
available on the above page (acpi4asus-user@lists.sourceforge.net)
config ACPI_IBM
tristate "IBM ThinkPad Laptop Extras"
depends on X86
default m
---help---
This is a Linux ACPI driver for the IBM ThinkPad laptops. It adds
support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
For more information about this driver see <file:Documentation/ibm-acpi.txt>
and <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
If you have an IBM ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
config ACPI_TOSHIBA
tristate "Toshiba Laptop Extras"
depends on X86
default m
---help---
This driver adds support for access to certain system settings
on "legacy free" Toshiba laptops. These laptops can be recognized by
their lack of a BIOS setup menu and APM support.
On these machines, all system configuration is handled through the
ACPI. This driver is required for access to controls not covered
by the general ACPI drivers, such as LCD brightness, video output,
etc.
This driver differs from the non-ACPI Toshiba laptop driver (located
under "Processor type and features") in several aspects.
Configuration is accessed by reading and writing text files in the
/proc tree instead of by program interface to /dev. Furthermore, no
power management functions are exposed, as those are handled by the
general ACPI drivers.
More information about this driver is available at
<http://memebeam.org/toys/ToshibaAcpiDriver>.
If you have a legacy free Toshiba laptop (such as the Libretto L1
series), say Y.
config ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT
bool "Include Custom DSDT"
depends on !STANDALONE
default n
help
Thist option is to load a custom ACPI DSDT
If you don't know what that is, say N.
config ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
string "Custom DSDT Table file to include"
depends on ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT
default ""
help
Enter the full path name to the file wich includes the AmlCode declaration.
config ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR
int "Disable ACPI for systems before Jan 1st this year"
depends on ACPI_INTERPRETER
default 0
help
enter a 4-digit year, eg. 2001 to disable ACPI by default
on platforms with DMI BIOS date before January 1st that year.
"acpi=force" can be used to override this mechanism.
Enter 0 to disable this mechanism and allow ACPI to
run by default no matter what the year. (default)
config ACPI_DEBUG
bool "Debug Statements"
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default n
help
The ACPI driver can optionally report errors with a great deal
of verbosity. Saying Y enables these statements. This will increase
your kernel size by around 50K.
config ACPI_BUS
bool
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default y
config ACPI_EC
bool
depends on X86
default y
help
This driver is required on some systems for the proper operation of
the battery and thermal drivers. If you are compiling for a
mobile system, say Y.
config ACPI_POWER
bool
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default y
config ACPI_PCI
bool
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default PCI
config ACPI_SYSTEM
bool
depends on !IA64_SGI_SN
default y
help
This driver will enable your system to shut down using ACPI, and
dump your ACPI DSDT table using /proc/acpi/dsdt.
endif # ACPI_INTERPRETER
config X86_PM_TIMER
bool "Power Management Timer Support"
depends on X86
depends on ACPI_BOOT && EXPERIMENTAL
depends on !X86_64
default n
help
The Power Management Timer is available on all ACPI-capable,
in most cases even if ACPI is unusable or blacklisted.
This timing source is not affected by powermanagement features
like aggressive processor idling, throttling, frequency and/or
voltage scaling, unlike the commonly used Time Stamp Counter
(TSC) timing source.
So, if you see messages like 'Losing too many ticks!' in the
kernel logs, and/or you are using this on a notebook which
does not yet have an HPET, you should say "Y" here.
config ACPI_CONTAINER
tristate "ACPI0004,PNP0A05 and PNP0A06 Container Driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
default (ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY || ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU || ACPI_HOTPLUG_IO)

This is the ACPI generic container driver which supports
ACPI0004, PNP0A05 and PNP0A06 devices
config ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY
tristate "Memory Hotplug"
depends on ACPI
depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG
default n
help
This driver adds supports for ACPI Memory Hotplug. This driver
provides support for fielding notifications on ACPI memory
devices (PNP0C80) which represent memory ranges that may be
onlined or offlined during runtime.
Enabling this driver assumes that your platform hardware
and firmware have support for hot-plugging physical memory. If
your system does not support physically adding or ripping out
memory DIMMs at some platfrom defined granularity (individually
or as a bank) at runtime, then you need not enable this driver.
If one selects "m," this driver can be loaded using the following
command:
$>modprobe acpi_memhotplug
endif # ACPI
