Convert the acpi memory hotplug spec to rST. Note that this includes converting a lot of weird whitespace characters to plain old spaces (the rST parser does not like whatever the old ones were).

QEMU<->ACPI BIOS memory hotplug interface
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
ACPI BIOS GPE.3 handler is dedicated for notifying OS about memory hot-add
|
|
and hot-remove events.
|
|
|
|
Memory hot-plug interface (IO port 0xa00-0xa17, 1-4 byte access)
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Read access behavior
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
[0x0-0x3]
|
|
Lo part of memory device phys address
|
|
[0x4-0x7]
|
|
Hi part of memory device phys address
|
|
[0x8-0xb]
|
|
Lo part of memory device size in bytes
|
|
[0xc-0xf]
|
|
Hi part of memory device size in bytes
|
|
[0x10-0x13]
|
|
Memory device proximity domain
|
|
[0x14]
|
|
Memory device status fields
|
|
|
|
bits:
|
|
|
|
0:
|
|
Device is enabled and may be used by guest
|
|
1:
|
|
Device insert event, used to distinguish device for which
|
|
no device check event to OSPM was issued.
|
|
It's valid only when bit 1 is set.
|
|
2:
|
|
Device remove event, used to distinguish device for which
|
|
no device eject request to OSPM was issued.
|
|
3-7:
|
|
reserved and should be ignored by OSPM
|
|
|
|
[0x15-0x17]
|
|
reserved
|
|
|
|
Write access behavior
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
[0x0-0x3]
|
|
Memory device slot selector, selects active memory device.
|
|
All following accesses to other registers in 0xa00-0xa17
|
|
region will read/store data from/to selected memory device.
|
|
[0x4-0x7]
|
|
OST event code reported by OSPM
|
|
[0x8-0xb]
|
|
OST status code reported by OSPM
|
|
[0xc-0x13]
|
|
reserved, writes into it are ignored
|
|
[0x14]
|
|
Memory device control fields
|
|
|
|
bits:
|
|
|
|
0:
|
|
reserved, OSPM must clear it before writing to register.
|
|
Due to BUG in versions prior 2.4 that field isn't cleared
|
|
when other fields are written. Keep it reserved and don't
|
|
try to reuse it.
|
|
1:
|
|
if set to 1 clears device insert event, set by OSPM
|
|
after it has emitted device check event for the
|
|
selected memory device
|
|
2:
|
|
if set to 1 clears device remove event, set by OSPM
|
|
after it has emitted device eject request for the
|
|
selected memory device
|
|
3:
|
|
if set to 1 initiates device eject, set by OSPM when it
|
|
triggers memory device removal and calls _EJ0 method
|
|
4-7:
|
|
reserved, OSPM must clear them before writing to register
|
|
|
|
Selecting memory device slot beyond present range has no effect on platform:
|
|
|
|
- write accesses to memory hot-plug registers not documented above are ignored
|
|
- read accesses to memory hot-plug registers not documented above return
|
|
all bits set to 1.
