Here's a patch for acpi_ec that is developed in cooperation with David Naylor who also did all the testing: http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/acpi_ec.2.patch
The patch quite aggressively changes a few things and tries to make logic more robust with respect to EC behavior. I ask everybody, who is able to help, to test the patch, please. I am interested in all kinds of reports. If your EC "misbehaves", then there is a chance that the patch will fix that. If your EC works fine, then make sure that I don't break it with the patch. Short description of the changes: - attempt to retry some commands for which it is possible (read, query) - always make a short sleep before checking EC status in polled mode - periodically poll EC status in interrupt mode - change logic for detecting broken interrupt delivery and falling back to polled mode - check that EC is ready for input before starting a new command, wait if necessary Big thanks in advance. -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ freebsd-acpi@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-acpi To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-acpi-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
