+Abstract:
+
+The Linux ACPI subsystem converts ACPI namespace objects into a Linux
+device tree under the /sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00 and updates it upon
+receiving ACPI hotplug notification events.  For each device object in this
+hierarchy there is a corresponding symbolic link in the
+/sys/bus/acpi/devices.
+This document illustrates the structure of the ACPI device tree.

+1. ACPI Definition Blocks
+
+   The ACPI firmware sets up RSDP (Root System Description Pointer) in the
+   system memory address space pointing to the XSDT (Extended System
+   Description Table).  The XSDT always points to the FADT (Fixed ACPI
+   Description Table) using its first entry, the data within the FADT
+   includes various fixed-length entries that describe fixed ACPI features
+   of the hardware.  The FADT contains a pointer to the DSDT
+   (Differentiated System Descripition Table).  The XSDT also contains
+   entries pointing to possibly multiple SSDTs (Secondary System
+   Description Table).
+
+   The DSDT and SSDT data is organized in data structures called definition
+   blocks that contain definitions of various objects, including ACPI
+   control methods, encoded in AML (ACPI Machine Language).  The data block
+   of the DSDT along with the contents of SSDTs represents a hierarchical
+   data structure called the ACPI namespace whose topology reflects the
+   structure of the underlying hardware platform.
+
+   The relationships between ACPI System Definition Tables described above
+   are illustrated in the following diagram.

+
+   NOTE: RSDP can also contain a pointer to the RSDT (Root System
+         Description Table).  Platforms provide RSDT to enable
+         compatibility with ACPI 1.0 operating systems.  The OS is expected
+         to use XSDT, if present.
+
+
+2. Example ACPI Namespace
+
+   All definition blocks are loaded into a single namespace.  The namespace
+   is a hierarchy of objects identified by names and paths.
+   The following naming conventions apply to object names in the ACPI
+   namespace:
+   1. All names are 32 bits long.
+   2. The first byte of a name must be one of 'A' - 'Z', '_'.
+   3. Each of the remaining bytes of a name must be one of 'A' - 'Z', '0'
+      - '9', '_'.
+   4. Names starting with '_' are reserved by the ACPI specification.
+   5. The '\' symbol represents the root of the namespace (i.e. names
+      prepended with '\' are relative to the namespace root).
+   6. The '^' symbol represents the parent of the current namespace node
+      (i.e. names prepended with '^' are relative to the parent of the
+      current namespace node).
+
+   The figure below shows an example ACPI namespace.

+3. Linux ACPI Device Objects
+
+   The Linux kernel's core ACPI subsystem creates struct acpi_device
+   objects for ACPI namespace objects representing devices, power resources
+   processors, thermal zones.  Those objects are exported to user space via
+   sysfs as directories in the subtree under /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00.  The
+   format of their names is <bus_id:instance>, where 'bus_id' refers to the
+   ACPI namespace representation of the given object and 'instance' is used
+   for distinguishing different object of the same 'bus_id' (it is
+   two-digit decimal representation of an unsigned integer).
+
+   The value of 'bus_id' depends on the type of the object whose name it is
+   part of as listed in the table below.
+
+                +---+-----------------+-------+----------+

+
+                 Table 1. ACPI Namespace Objects Mapping
+
+   The following rules apply when creating struct acpi_device objects on
+   the basis of the contents of ACPI System Description Tables (as
+   indicated by the letter in the first column and the notation in the
+   second column of the table above):
+   N:
+      The object's source is an ACPI namespace node (as indicated by the
+      named object's type in the second column).  In that case the object's
+      directory in sysfs will contain the 'path' attribute whose value is
+      the full path to the node from the namespace root.
+      struct acpi_device objects are created for the ACPI namespace nodes
+      whose _STA control methods return PRESENT or FUNCTIONING.  The power
+      resource nodes or nodes without _STA are assumed to be both PRESENT
+      and FUNCTIONING.
+   F:
+      The struct acpi_device object is created for a fixed hardware
+      feature (as indicated by the fixed feature flag's name in the second
+      column), so its sysfs directory will not contain the 'path'
+      attribute.
+   M:
+      The struct acpi_device object is created for an ACPI namespace node
+      with specific control methods (as indicated by the ACPI defined
+      device's type in the second column).  The 'path' attribute containing
+      its namespace path will be present in its sysfs directory.  For
+      example, if the _BCL method is present for an ACPI namespace node, a
+      struct acpi_device object with LNXVIDEO 'bus_id' will be created for
+      it.
+
+   The third column of the above table indicates which ACPI System
+   Description Tables contain information used for the creation of the
+   struct acpi_device objects represented by the given row (xSDT means DSDT
+   or SSDT).
+
+   The forth column of the above table indicates the 'bus_id' generation
+   rule of the struct acpi_device object:
+   _HID:
+      _HID in the last column of the table means that the object's bus_id
+      is derived from the _HID/_CID identification objects present under
+      the corresponding ACPI namespace node. The object's sysfs directory
+      will then contain the 'hid' and 'modalias' attributes that can be
+      used to retrieve the _HID and _CIDs of that object.
+   LNXxxxxx:
+      The 'modalias' attribute is also present for struct acpi_device
+      objects having bus_id of the "LNXxxxxx" form (pseudo devices), in
+      which cases it contains the bus_id string itself.
+   device:
+      'device' in the last column of the table indicates that the object's
+      bus_id cannot be determined from _HID/_CID of the corresponding
+      ACPI namespace node, although that object represents a device (for
+      example, it may be a PCI device with _ADR defined and without _HID
+      or _CID).  In that case the string 'device' will be used as the
+      object's bus_id.
+
+
+4. Linux ACPI Physical Device Glue
+
+   ACPI device (i.e. struct acpi_device) objects may be linked to other
+   objects in the Linux' device hierarchy that represent "physical" devices
+   (for example, devices on the PCI bus).  If that happens, it means that
+   the ACPI device object is a "companion" of a device otherwise
+   represented in a different way and is used (1) to provide configuration
+   information on that device which cannot be obtained by other means and
+   (2) to do specific things to the device with the help of its ACPI
+   control methods.  One ACPI device object may be linked this way to
+   multiple "physical" devices.
+
+   If an ACPI device object is linked to a "physical" device, its sysfs
+   directory contains the "physical_node" symbolic link to the sysfs
+   directory of the target device object.  In turn, the target device's
+   sysfs directory will then contain the "firmware_node" symbolic link to
+   the sysfs directory of the companion ACPI device object.
+   The linking mechanism relies on device identification provided by the
+   ACPI namespace.  For example, if there's an ACPI namespace object
+   representing a PCI device (i.e. a device object under an ACPI namespace
+   object representing a PCI bridge) whose _ADR returns 0x00020000 and the
+   bus number of the parent PCI bridge is 0, the sysfs directory
+   representing the struct acpi_device object created for that ACPI
+   namespace object will contain the 'physical_node' symbolic link to the
+   /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02:0/ sysfs directory of the
+   corresponding PCI device.
+
+   The linking mechanism is generally bus-specific.  The core of its
+   implementation is located in the drivers/acpi/glue.c file, but there are
+   complementary parts depending on the bus types in question located
+   elsewhere.  For example, the PCI-specific part of it is located in
+   drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c.
+
+
+5. Example Linux ACPI Device Tree
+
+   The sysfs hierarchy of struct acpi_device objects corresponding to the
+   example ACPI namespace illustrated in Figure 2 with the addition of
+   fixed PWR_BUTTON/SLP_BUTTON devices is shown below.

+ACPI video extensions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+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.
+
+The ACPI video driver does 3 things regarding backlight control:
+
+1 Export a sysfs interface for user space to control backlight level
+
+If the ACPI table has a video device, and acpi_backlight=vendor kernel
+command line is not present, the driver will register a backlight device
+and set the required backlight operation structure for it for the sysfs
+interface control. For every registered class device, there will be a
+directory named acpi_videoX under /sys/class/backlight.
+
+The backlight sysfs interface has a standard definition here:
+Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-class-backlight.
+
+And what ACPI video driver does is:
+actual_brightness: on read, control method _BQC will be evaluated to
+get the brightness level the firmware thinks it is at;
+bl_power: not implemented, will set the current brightness instead;
+brightness: on write, control method _BCM will run to set the requested
+brightness level;
+max_brightness: Derived from the _BCL package(see below);
+type: firmware
+
+Note that ACPI video backlight driver will always use index for
+brightness, actual_brightness and max_brightness. So if we have
+the following _BCL package:
+
+Method (_BCL, 0, NotSerialized)
+{
+	Return (Package (0x0C)
+	{
+		0x64,
+		0x32,
+		0x0A,
+		0x14,
+		0x1E,
+		0x28,
+		0x32,
+		0x3C,
+		0x46,
+		0x50,
+		0x5A,
+		0x64
+	})
+}
+
+The first two levels are for when laptop are on AC or on battery and are
+not used by Linux currently. The remaining 10 levels are supported levels
+that we can choose from. The applicable index values are from 0 (that
+corresponds to the 0x0A brightness value) to 9 (that corresponds to the
+0x64 brightness value) inclusive. Each of those index values is regarded
+as a "brightness level" indicator. Thus from the user space perspective
+the range of available brightness levels is from 0 to 9 (max_brightness)
+inclusive.
+
+2 Notify user space about hotkey event
+
+There are generally two cases for hotkey event reporting:
+i) For some laptops, when user presses the hotkey, a scancode will be
+   generated and sent to user space through the input device created by
+   the keyboard driver as a key type input event, with proper remap, the
+   following key code will appear to user space:
+
+	EV_KEY, KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP
+	EV_KEY, KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN
+	etc.
+
+For this case, ACPI video driver does not need to do anything(actually,
+it doesn't even know this happened).
+
+ii) For some laptops, the press of the hotkey will not generate the
+    scancode, instead, firmware will notify the video device ACPI node
+    about the event. The event value is defined in the ACPI spec. ACPI
+    video driver will generate an key type input event according to the
+    notify value it received and send the event to user space through the
+    input device it created:
+
+	event		keycode
+	0x86		KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP
+	0x87		KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN
+	etc.
+
+so this would lead to the same effect as case i) now.
+
+Once user space tool receives this event, it can modify the backlight
+level through the sysfs interface.
+
+3 Change backlight level in the kernel
+
+This works for machines covered by case ii) in Section 2. Once the driver
+received a notification, it will set the backlight level accordingly. This does
+not affect the sending of event to user space, they are always sent to user
+space regardless of whether or not the video module controls the backlight level
+directly. This behaviour can be controlled through the brightness_switch_enabled
+module parameter as documented in kernel-parameters.txt. It is recommended to
+disable this behaviour once a GUI environment starts up and wants to have full
+control of the backlight level.
