The following mechanisms are OSPM specific:
1. Redirect output destination to console: no file redirection will be
needed by an in-kernel debugger, there is even no file can be accessed
when the debugger is running in the kernel mode.
2. Output command prompts: programs other than acpiexec can have different
prompt characters and the prompt characters may be implemented as a
special character sequence to form a char device IO protocol.
3. Command ready/complete handshake: OSPM debugger may wait more conditions
to implement OSPM specific semantics (for example, FIFO full/empty
conditions for O_NONBLOCK or IO open/close conditions).
Leaving such OSPM specific stuffs in the ACPICA debugger core blocks
Linux debugger IO driver implementation.
Several new OSL APIs are provided by this patch:
1. acpi_os_initialize_command_signals: initialize command handshake mechanism
or any other OSPM specific stuffs.
2. acpi_os_terminate_command_signals: reversal of
acpi_os_initialize_command_signals.
3. acpi_os_wait_command_ready: putting debugger task into wait state when a
command is not ready. OSPMs can terminate command loop by returning
AE_CTRL_TERMINATE from this API. Normally, wait_event() or
wait_for_multiple_object() may be used to implement this API.
4. acpi_os_notify_command_complete: putting user task into running state when a
command has been completed. OSPMs can terminate command loop by
returning AE_CTRL_TERMINATE from this API. Normally, wake_up() or
set_event() may be used to implement this API.
This patch also converts current command signaling implementation into a
generic debugger layer (osgendbg.c) to be used by the existing OSPMs or
acpiexec, in return, Linux can have chance to implement its own command
handshake mechanism. This patch also implements acpiexec batch mode in a
multi-threading mode comaptible style as a demo (this can be confirmed by
configuring acpiexec into DEBUGGER_MULTI_THREADED mode where the batch mode
is still working). Lv Zheng.
Note that the OSPM specific command handshake mechanism is required by
Linux kernel because:
1. Linux kernel trends to use wait queue to synchronize two threads, using
mutexes to achieve that will cause false "dead lock" warnings.
2. The command handshake mechanism implemented by ACPICA is implemented in
this way because of a design issue in debugger IO streaming. Debugger IO
outputs are simply cached using a giant buffer, this should be tuned by
Linux in the future.

ACPICA commit 6b2701f619040e803313363f516b200e362a9100
Make these mutex objects independent of the deadlock detection mechanism.
This mechanism caused failures with the multithread debugger.
This patch doesn't affect Linux kernel as debugger is currently not fully
functioning in the Linux kernel. And the further debugger cleanups will
take care of handling debugger command signalling correctly instead of
using such kind of mutexes. So it is safe to leave this patch as it is.

Commit 9cd0314(ACPI / ACPICA: Fix global lock acquisition) was backported
into ACPICA code base, and some divergence was introduced.
This patch fixed it,
- rename acpi_ev_global_lock_pending/acpi_ev_global_lock_pending_lock
to acpi_gbl_global_lock_pending/acpi_gbl_global_lock_pending_lock.
- move the initialization of acpi_gbl_global_lock_pending_lock from
acpi_ut_mutex_initialize to acpi_ev_init_global_lock_handler.

Change definition of acpi_thread_id to always be a u64. This
simplifies the code, especially any printf output. u64 is
the only common data type for all thread_id types across all
operating systems. We now force the OSL to cast the native
thread_id type to u64 before returning the value to ACPICA
(via acpi_os_get_thread_id).

Adds install/remove interfaces so that the host can dynamically
alter the global _OSI table. Also adds support for _OSI handlers.
Additional support: new debugger command (osi), and test support in
the acpiexec utility. Adds new file, utilities/utosi.c.
ACPICA bugzilla 836.
The Linux OSL _OSI code is also changed.
acpi_osi_setup can't call acpi_install/remove_interface because ACPICA
is not initialized yet at this early time.
So we just save the osi string in acpi_osi_setup and will handle it
later in a new function acpi_osi_setup_late.
