It's a hard hang that not even an NMI could punch through! Frustratingly,
adding printks or function tracing to the ACPI code made the hangs go away
...
After some time an additional detail emerged: disabling the NMI watchdog
made these occasional hangs go away.
So i spent the better part of today trying to debug this and trying out
various theories when i finally found the likely reason for the hang: if
acpi_ns_initialize_devices() executes an _INI AML method and an NMI
happens to hit that AML execution in the wrong moment, the machine would
hang. (my theory is that this must be some sort of chipset setup method
doing stores to chipset mmio registers?)
Unfortunately given the characteristics of the hang it was sheer
impossible to figure out which of the numerous AML methods is impacted
by this problem.
As a workaround i wrote an interface to disable chipset-based NMIs while
executing _INI sections - and indeed this fixed the hang. I did a
boot-loop of 100 separate reboots and none hung - while without the patch
it would hang every 5-10 attempts. Out of caution i did not touch the
nmi_watchdog=2 case (it's not related to the chipset anyway and didnt
hang).
I implemented this for both x86_64 and i686, tested the i686 laptop both
with nmi_watchdog=1 [which triggered the hangs] and nmi_watchdog=2, and
tested an Athlon64 box with the 64-bit kernel as well. Everything builds
and works with the patch applied.

Make acpi_load_table() available for use by removing it from the #ifdef
ACPI_FUTURE_USAGE.
Also add a new routine used to unload an ACPI table of a given type and "id" -
acpi_unload_table_id(). The implementation of this new routine was almost a
direct copy of existing routine acpi_unload_table() - only difference being
that it only removes a specific table id instead of ALL tables of a given
type. The SN hotplug driver (sgi_hotplug.c) now uses both of these interfaces
to dynamically load and unload SSDT ACPI tables.
Also, a few other ACPI routines now used by the SN hotplug driver are exported
(since the driver can be a loadable module):

minimize size.
Added an error message for the case where
acpi_os_get_thread_id() returns zero. A non-zero value is
required by the core ACPICA code to ensure the proper
operation of AML mutexes and recursive control methods.
The DSDT is now the only ACPI table that determines whether
the AML interpreter is in 32-bit or 64-bit mode. Not really
a functional change, but the hooks for per-table 32/64
switching have been removed from the code. A clarification
to the ACPI specification is forthcoming in ACPI 3.0B.

usually a very small object.)
Implemented support for "ignored" bits in the ACPI
registers. According to the ACPI specification, these
bits should be preserved when writing the registers via
a read/modify/write cycle. There are 3 bits preserved
in this manner: PM1_CONTROL[0] (SCI_EN), PM1_CONTROL[9],
and PM1_STATUS[11].

Implemented the initial deployment of new OSL mutex
interfaces. Since some host operating systems have
separate mutex and semaphore objects, this feature was
requested. The base code now uses mutexes (and the new
mutex interfaces) wherever a binary semaphore was used
previously. However, for the current release, the mutex
interfaces are defined as macros to map them to the
existing semaphore interfaces.
Fixed several problems with the support for the control
method SyncLevel parameter. The SyncLevel now works
according to the ACPI specification and in concert with the
Mutex SyncLevel parameter, since the current SyncLevel is
a property of the executing thread. Mutual exclusion for
control methods is now implemented with a mutex instead
of a semaphore.
Fixed three instances of the use of the C shift operator
in the bitfield support code (exfldio.c) to avoid the use
of a shift value larger than the target data width. The
behavior of C compilers is undefined in this case and can

be detected and avoided. (Fiodor Suietov)
Added an info message whenever an SSDT or OEM table

Removed a device initialization optimization introduced in
20051216 where the _STA method was not run unless an _INI
was also present for the same device. This optimization
could cause problems because it could allow _INI methods
to be run within a not-present device subtree (If a
not-present device had no _INI, _STA would not be run,
the not-present status would not be discovered, and the
children of the device would be incorrectly traversed.)
Implemented a new _STA optimization where namespace
subtrees that do not contain _INI are identified and
ignored during device initialization. Selectively running
_STA can significantly improve boot time on large machines
(with assistance from Len Brown.)
Implemented support for the device initialization case
where the returned _STA flags indicate a device not-present
but functioning. In this case, _INI is not run, but the
device children are examined for presence, as per the
ACPI specification.
Implemented an additional change to the IndexField support
in order to conform to MS behavior. The value written to
the Index Register is not simply a byte offset, it is a
byte offset in units of the access width of the parent
Index Field. (Fiodor Suietov)
Defined and deployed a new OSL interface,
acpi_os_validate_address(). This interface is called during
the creation of all AML operation regions, and allows
the host OS to exert control over what addresses it will

addresses are disallowed will cause a runtime exception
when they are actually accessed (will not affect or abort
table loading.)

Optimized several internal data structures to reduce
object size on 64-bit platforms by packing data within
the 64-bit alignment. This includes the frequently used
ACPI_OPERAND_OBJECT, of which there can be ~1000 static
instances corresponding to the namespace objects.

to error processing, the deletion of objects, and placing
invalid pointers onto the internal operator result stack.

Increased the reference count threshold where a warning is
emitted for large reference counts in order to eliminate
unnecessary warnings on systems with large namespaces
(especially 64-bit.) Increased the value from 0x400
to 0x800.
Due to universal disagreement as to the meaning of the
'c' in the calloc() function, the ACPI_MEM_CALLOCATE
macro has been renamed to ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED so that the
purpose of the interface is 'clear'. ACPI_MEM_ALLOCATE and
ACPI_MEM_FREE are renamed to ACPI_ALLOCATE and ACPI_FREE.

Implemented a change to the IndexField support to match
the behavior of the Microsoft AML interpreter. The value
written to the Index register is now a byte offset,
no longer an index based upon the width of the Data
register. This should fix IndexField problems seen on
some machines where the Data register is not exactly one
byte wide. The ACPI specification will be clarified on
this point.
Fixed a problem where several resource descriptor
types could overrun the internal descriptor buffer due
to size miscalculation: VendorShort, VendorLong, and
Interrupt. This was noticed on IA64 machines, but could
affect all platforms.
Fixed a problem where individual resource descriptors were
misaligned within the internal buffer, causing alignment
faults on IA64 platforms.

Removed a couple of extraneous ACPI_ERROR messages that
appeared during normal execution. These became apparent
after the conversion from ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT.
Fixed a problem where the CreateField operator could hang
if the BitIndex or NumBits parameter referred to a named
object. From Valery Podrezov.

Fixed a problem where a DeRefOf operation on a buffer
object incorrectly failed with an exception. This also
fixes a couple of related RefOf and DeRefOf issues.
From Valery Podrezov.

Fixed a problem where the AE_BUFFER_LIMIT exception was
returned instead of AE_STRING_LIMIT on an out-of-bounds
Index() operation. From Valery Podrezov.

Implemented a memory cleanup at the end of the execution
of each iteration of an AML While() loop, preventing the
accumulation of outstanding objects. From Valery Podrezov.

Eliminated a chunk of duplicate code in the object
resolution code. From Valery Podrezov.

Implemented support in the Resource Manager to allow
unresolved namestring references within resource package
objects for the _PRT method. This support is in addition
to the previously implemented unresolved reference
support within the AML parser. If the interpreter slack
mode is enabled (true on Linux unless acpi=strict),
these unresolved references will be passed through
to the caller as a NULL package entry.

Implemented and deployed new macros and functions for
error and warning messages across the subsystem. These
macros are simpler and generate less code than their
predecessors. The new macros ACPI_ERROR, ACPI_EXCEPTION,
ACPI_WARNING, and ACPI_INFO replace the ACPI_REPORT_*
macros.
Implemented the acpi_cpu_flags type to simplify host OS
integration of the Acquire/Release Lock OSL interfaces.
Suggested by Steven Rostedt and Andrew Morton.
Fixed a problem where Alias ASL operators are sometimes
not correctly resolved. causing AE_AML_INTERNAL
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5189http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5674
Fixed several problems with the implementation of the
ConcatenateResTemplate ASL operator. As per the ACPI
specification, zero length buffers are now treated as a
single EndTag. One-length buffers always cause a fatal
exception. Non-zero length buffers that do not end with
a full 2-byte EndTag cause a fatal exception.
Fixed a possible structure overwrite in the
AcpiGetObjectInfo external interface. (With assistance
from Thomas Renninger)
