Subject: [PATCH 0/1] ACPI: Call ACPI remove handler when handling ACPI eject

From: Liu Ping Fan <pingfank@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

When I tried to enable cpu hotplug feature for qemu-kvm, I found that the ACPI device eject event just skipped by kernel.

static void acpi_bus_notify(acpi_handle handle, u32 type, void *data)
{ 
 	case ACPI_NOTIFY_EJECT_REQUEST:
		/* TBD */---> skipped from here
}

But I notice, in drivers/acpi/dock.c, dock_notify()->handle_eject_request() will handle such event for ACPI _dock device.
So what we shall do, changing Qemu's SeaBIOS or changing the kernel?  If changing SeaBIOS, will it affect guest MS-Window?



Thanks,
ping fan
