[PATCH v2.1 2/8] ACPI: bus: Rework printing debug messages on _OSC errors
Posted by Rafael J. Wysocki 1 month, 2 weeks ago
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Instead of using one function, acpi_print_osc_error(), for printing a
debug message and dumping the _OSC request data in one go, use
acpi_handle_debug() directly for printing messages and a separate
function called acpi_dump_osc_data() for dumping the _OSC request data
before printing one or more of them.

This avoids
 * dumping _OSC request data multiple times when there are
   multiple error bits set in the return buffer,
 * wrapping message lines on terminals with 80 character line width,
 * mixing up unrelated messages by printing full lines only,
and generally helps to make the messages easier to parse.

Also, use %pUL for UUID printing instead of printing UUIDs as strings
and include the revision number into the dumped _OSC request data.

This is how the debug printout looks like when the
OSC_REQUEST_ERROR and OSC_INVALID_REVISION_ERROR bits
are set in the return buffer before the change:

 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: (0811B06E-4A27-44F9-8D60-3CBBC22E7B48): _OSC request failed
 ACPI: _OSC request data:
 ACPI:  1
 ACPI:  2e7eff
 ACPI: 
 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: (0811B06E-4A27-44F9-8D60-3CBBC22E7B48): _OSC invalid revision
 ACPI: _OSC request data:
 ACPI:  1
 ACPI:  2e7eff
 ACPI:

and this is how it is going to look like afterward:

 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: _OSC: UUID: 0811B06E-4A27-44F9-8D60-3CBBC22E7B48, rev: 1
 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: _OSC: capabilities DWORD 0: [00000001]
 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: _OSC: capabilities DWORD 1: [002e7eff]
 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: _OSC: request failed
 ACPI: \_SB_: ACPI: _OSC: invalid revision

v1 -> v2.1:
   * Dump _OSC request data before printing diagnostic messages.
   * Add example "before" and "after" debug output to the changelog (Jonathan).
   * Reformat messages to avoid crossing the 80 characters boundary.
   * Update the changelog.
