Did you mean every time we received 0x81 event in kernel module, we need
access GET_SYSTEM_PARAMETERS to get the flags for distinguish between
ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE?

Or just need access ONE time when system boot?


I have a machine the GET_SYSTEM_PARAMETERS looks like this:

Method (AF01, 0, NotSerialized)                 /* ATIF_FUNCTION_GET_SYSTEM_PARAMETERS 0x1 */
{
    CreateWordField (ATIB, Zero, SSZE)
    CreateDWordField (ATIB, 0x02, VMSK)
    CreateDWordField (ATIB, 0x06, FLGS)         /* flags bits 1:0 */
    Store (0x0A, SSZE)		/* structure SIZE fixed */
    Store (0x03, VMSK)		/* valid flags mask fixed to 0x03 */
    Store (One, FLGS)		/* FLAGS always set to 1 */
    Return (ATIB)
}

Looks like just need access ONE time when system boot because those
return value of AF01 fixed in DSDT.

On this machine doesn't support probe event, I didn't see any event
issued when I plug D-Sub. Does that means those kind of ATI/AMD machines
do NOT support probe notify?

If YES, then we can just direct disable acpi/video driver by radeon-acpi
when we detected FLAGS is 1.


Thanks a lot!
