Re: ACPI Errors for Dimension 8250

Thanks for the rely,

Here is my acpixtract -l dsdt.asl output:

Signature Length  OemId     OemTableId   OemRevision CompilerId CompilerRevision

   RSDP          "DELL  "

Found 8 ACPI tables [20060324]

I have also attached my dsdt.asl file, which is the output of the
acpidump.  The acpixtract was able to create all the dat files, but I
was a little confused when it came to copying the table to the dsdt
file.  I simply copied the above table to the bottom of the dsdt.asl
file and tried to compile, but it still gave me an error:

iasl -tc dsdt.asl :

Intel ACPI Component Architecture
ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20060512 [Jul 27 2006]
Copyright (C) 2000 - 2006 Intel Corporation

dsdt.asl1     1: DSDT 60 a0 1b 5c 5f 4f 53  ..$[._OSI`..\_OS
Error    4094 -     ^ syntax error, unexpected PARSEOP_NAMESEG,
expecting PARSEOP_DEFINITIONBLOCK

ASL Input:  dsdt.asl1 - 505 lines, 35964 bytes, 0 keywords
Compilation complete. 1 Errors, 0 Warnings, 0 Remarks, 0 Optimizations

Part of the problem could be that I might not have the newest iasl
compiler because I can't get the iasl compiler from the acpica-unix
package to compile on my machine.  Currently using version 20060512.

Thanks,
John

These are probably all declared in a SSDT.

iasl error... somewhat ugly, I reask whether these nameclashes can be
fixed somewhat more generic than adding fixed string tokens to device
method declarations in yacc.
Renaming all DMA to e.g. _DMA_ (beside the ones where the DMA keyword
should be used, not sure if there is case in your DSDT) should work
around that.

Don't know, follow up error from above?

Better get the latest acpica-unix from:
http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads.htm

Use acpidump, do not cp /proc/acpi/dsdt (this one is going to vanish
sooner or later).
Then use the compiled acpixtract from acpica-unix (not the perl one from
pmtools, that one gets obsolete). You now should get several tables
DSDT.dat SSDT1.dat SSDT2.dat ...

If you cut of the header (and closing '}' at the end of the table) of
the SSDTs and C&P them to the end of the DSDT (inside the last closing
'}') everything should compile fine.

The latest iasl compiler should add External statements at the beginning
of the disassembled table, but this does not work perfectly yet.
You can:
iasl -e TABLE_WITH_EXTERNAL_DECLARATIONS.aml -d TABLE_TO_DISASSEMBLE.aml
to let iasl resolve External symbols correctly.
But this is also not fully (not at all..) implemented.

I am currently playing with that, can you send me your acpidump output,
please.

Thanks,

     Thomas
