What:		/sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/
Date:		February 2008
Contact:	Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org>
Description:
		All ACPI interrupts are handled via a single IRQ,
		the System Control Interrupt (SCI), which appears
		as "acpi" in /proc/interrupts.

		However, one of the main functions of ACPI is to make
		the platform understand random hardware without
		special driver support.  So while the SCI handles a few
		well known (fixed feature) interrupts sources, such
		as the power button, it can also handle a variable
		number of a "General Purpose Events" (GPE).

		A GPE vectors to a specified handler in AML, which
		can do a anything the BIOS writer wants from
		OS context.  GPE 0x12, for example, would vector
		to a level or edge handler called _L12 or _E12.
		The handler may do its business and return.
		Or the handler may send send a Notify event
		to a Linux device driver registered on an ACPI device,
		such as a battery, or a processor.

		To figure out where all the SCI's are coming from,
		/sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts contains a file listing
		every possible source, and the count of how many
		times it has triggered.

		sci - The number of times the ACPI SCI
		has been called and claimed an interrupt.

		sci_not - The number of times the ACPI SCI
		has been called and NOT claimed an interrupt.

		gpe_all - count of SCI caused by GPEs.

		gpeXX - count for individual GPE source

		ff_gbl_lock - Global Lock

		ff_pmtimer - PM Timer

		ff_pwr_btn - Power Button

		ff_rt_clk - Real Time Clock

		ff_slp_btn - Sleep Button

		error - an interrupt that can't be accounted for above.

		invalid: it's either a GPE or a Fixed Event that
			doesn't have an event handler.

		disable: the GPE/Fixed Event is valid but disabled.

		enable: the GPE/Fixed Event is valid and enabled.

		Root has permission to clear any of these counters.  Eg.
		# echo 0 > gpe11

		All counters can be cleared by clearing the total "sci":
		# echo 0 > sci

		None of these counters has an effect on the function
		of the system, they are simply statistics.

		Besides this, user can also write specific strings to these files
		to enable/disable/clear ACPI interrupts in user space, which can be
		used to debug some ACPI interrupt storm issues.

		Note that only writting to VALID GPE/Fixed Event is allowed,
		i.e. user can only change the status of runtime GPE and
		Fixed Event with event handler installed.

		Let's take power button fixed event for example, please kill acpid
		and other user space applications so that the machine won't shutdown
		when pressing the power button.

		/*
		 * this is because the status bit is set even if the enable bit is cleared,
		 * and it triggers an ACPI fixed event when the enable bit is set again
