    Subject[RFC PATCH v2 00/16] ACPI based system device hotplug framework
    Date
    From: Jiang Liu <liuj97@gmail.com>

    The patchset is based on v3.5-rc6 and you may pull them from:
    git://github.com/jiangliu/linux.git acpihp

    Modern high-end server may support advanced hotplug features for system
    devices, including physical processor, memory board, IO extension board
    and/or computer node. The ACPI specifications have provided standard
    interfaces between firmware and OS to support device hotplug at runtime.
    This patch series provide an ACPI based hotplug framework to support system
    device hotplug at runtime, which will replace current existing ACPI device
    driver based CPU/memory/CONTAINER hotplug mechanism.

    The new ACPI based hotplug framework is modelled after PCI hotplug
    architecture and target to achieve following goals:
    1) Provide a mechanism to detect hotplug slots by checking ACPI _EJ0 method,
    ACPI PRCT (platform RAS capabilities table) and other platform specific
    mechanisms.

    2) Unify the way to enumerate ACPI based hotplug slots. All hotplug slots
    will be enumerated by the enumeration driver, instead of by ACPI device
    drivers.

    3) Dynamically create/destroy ACPI hotplug slots. For example, new ACPI
    hotplug slots may be created when hot-adding a computer node if the node
    contains some memory hotplug slots.

    4) Unify the way to handle ACPI hotplug events. All ACPI hotplug events
    for system devices will be handled by a generic ACPI hotplug driver,
    instead of handled by ACPI device drivers.

    5) Solve dependencies among hotplug slots. You need first to remove the
    memory device before removing a physical processor if a hotpluggable memory
    device is connected to a hotpluggable physical processor.

    6) Provide better error handling and recover.

    7) Provide interface to cancel ongoing hotplug operations. It may take a
    very long time to remove a memory device, so provide interface to cancel
    the operation.

    8) Support new RAS features, such as socket/memory migration.

    9) Provide better user interfaces to the hotplug functionalities.

    The new hotplug framework includes four logical components.

    The first is an ACPI hotplug slot enumerator, which enumerates ACPI hotplug
    slots on load and provides callbacks to manage those hotplug slots. An ACPI
    hotplug slot is an abstraction of receptacles, where a group of system
    devices could be connected to.

    The second is a device class for ACPI hotplug slots, named acpihp_slot_class.
    All ACPI hotplug slot devices will be associated with acpihp_slot_class.

    The third is a platform independent class driver for ACPI hotplug slots,
    which registers itself onto acpihp_slot_class and manages all ACPI hotplug
    slots in system. This hotplug driver handles ACPI hotplug events, processes
    user requests and manages slot state machine accoring to user requests.

    The fourth is a series of ACPI device drivers, for CPU, memory, PCI host
    bridge, IOAPIC and ACPI CONTAINER. These ACPI device drivers provide device
    specific callbacks for the hotplug driver to add/remove system devices at
    runtime.

    This patch set implements the first and second parts, which enumerates
    hotplug slots and creates sysfs entries for each slot as below.
