please attach the output from acpidump (In reply to Len Brown from comment #1) > please attach the output from acpidump Iam sorry, i don't have utility (acpidump) in my linux distributive (Manjaro Linux - Arch-based). What can I do? acpidump should be available in some package, like pm-utils or acpica-tools Or you can build one from the kernel source. it's under kernel_src/tools/power/acpi/tools/acpidump/ ping ... (In reply to Zhang Rui from comment #4) > ping ... Sorry, Arch-based (manjaro) don't have this utilits. I don't know what can i do... Today i use kernel 4.4 - not problem)) as I said, you can build one from kernel source. 1. git clone or download the latest kernel source from www.kernel.org 2. cd kernel_src/tools/power/acpi/tools/acpidump/ 3. make 4. ./acpidump acpidump.out 5. attach the acpidump.out to this bug report (In reply to Zhang Rui from comment #7) > as I said, you can build one from kernel source. > 1. git clone or download the latest kernel source from www.kernel.org > 2. cd kernel_src/tools/power/acpi/tools/acpidump/ > 3. make > 4. ./acpidump acpidump.out > 5. attach the acpidump.out to this bug report Sorry for your waiting. https://pastebin.com/C3L8CmsV Created attachment 275087 [details]

following is the PCI0 _OSC
Method (_OSC, 5, NotSerialized) // _OSC: Operating System Capabilities
{
Local0 = Arg3
Local1 = (Local0 * 0x04)
Name (BUF1, Buffer (Local1){})
BUF1 = Arg4
Local1 = 0x00
Local2 = 0x00
While (Local0)
{
Local2 = (Local1 * 0x04)
CreateDWordField (BUF1, Local2, CAPB)
If (Arg2)
{
If ((Local1 == 0x00))

Return (BUF1) /* \_SB_.PCI0._OSC.BUF1 */

it is true that the ASL declares 5 arguments, while it should have 4 according to ACPI spec.
Erik, is this the root cause that causing this error message?
I have seen similar ASL writing on a couple of platforms as well, but they are all pretty old platforms.
Yes, this is the root cause.. One solution is to see if there is a firmware update for this platform or contact Acer directly about this issue. Other than that, there's not much we can do for these ACPI tables. So, this is a BIOS bug, which is detected by Linux kernel, and the right way to fix it is to raise the problem to Acer instead. As there is nothing we can do in Linux kernel, bug closed. |
