This is an issue with the disassembler where it gets confused when it finds control method invocations that refer to methods in other tables (SSDTs). Fortunately, this is rather rare. BTW, here are the really juicy flaws in this DSDT: (this is a new compiler warning) C:\Acpi\Bugs\Syntax>iasldebug dsdt.dsl Intel ACPI Component Architecture ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20060421 [Apr 21 2006] Copyright (C) 2000 - 2006 Intel Corporation Supports ACPI Specification Revision 3.0a dsdt.dsl 1046: Wait (\_SB.PCI0.PCIB.DKSQ, 0x0BB8) Warning 1103 - Possible operator timeout is ignored ^ dsdt.dsl 1065: Wait (\_SB.PCI0.PCIB.DKSQ, 0x1388) Warning 1103 - Possible operator timeout is ignored ^ dsdt.dsl 3403: Wait (\_SB.PCI0.PCIB.DKSQ, 0x0BB8) Warning 1103 - Possible operator timeout is ignored ^ dsdt.dsl 3420: Wait (\_SB.PCI0.PCIB.DKSQ, 0x1388) Warning 1103 - Possible operator timeout is ignored ^ and dsdt.dsl 3864: Increment (Local0) Error 4049 - ^ Method local variable is not initialized (Local0) I take it that this message is the root problem: ACPI: Looking for DSDT ... not found! I don't know where this comes from, or what it really means. > ACPI: Looking for DSDT ... not found!
This message is from Ubuntu, not from the upstream kernel.
Please file a bug with them to delete this message.
I expected that they made the same mistake that SuSE made,
they included the initrd DSDT over-ride patch that has been
repeatedly rejected from upstream kernel.
That said, this bug report boils down to if the disassembler/compiler
can be taught to handle this multiple table problem.
Also, please file a bug on why you are disassembling/compiling
the DSDT in the first place -- you should not have to do this.
Disassembler enhanced to automatically generate externals for unresolved symbols in ACPI CA version 20060512. Close this one an open another for whatever system table issue is at the root of the problem -- this one is too full of table disassembly and compile issues. 20060512 shipped before 2.6.18-rc1. closed. |
