Linuxized ACPICA - Introduction to ACPICA Release Automation

Abstract
========
This document describes the ACPICA project and the relationship between
ACPICA and Linux. It also describes how ACPICA code in drivers/acpi/acpica,
include/acpi and tools/power/acpi is automatically updated to follow the
upstream.
ACPICA Project
==============
The ACPI Component Architecture (ACPICA) project provides an operating
system (OS)-independent reference implementation of the Advanced
Configuration and Power Interface Specification (ACPI). It has been
adapted by various host OSes. By directly integrating ACPICA, Linux can
also benefit from the application experiences of ACPICA from other host
OSes.
The homepage of ACPICA project is: www.acpica.org, it is maintained and
supported by Intel Corporation.
The following figure depicts the Linux ACPI subsystem where the ACPICA
adaptation is included::

Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
