Hi,
I am trying to add PCC Opregion support in the kernel and am hitting a
kernel crash when I add PCC Opregion in the ACPI ASL. Below is the
snippet of the crash:
-->8

On debugging, I figured out that PCC channel index passed via region.address
in acpi_ex_store_object_to_node is interpreted as the channel subtype.
To confirm, I just hacked assuming we don't need to support type 1/2 PCC
with the change as below:
-->8
diff --git i/drivers/acpi/acpica/exfield.c w/drivers/acpi/acpica/exfield.c
index 06f3c9df1e22..8618500f23b3 100644

/* Perform the write */
With the above change, the crash disappears and correctly complains about
missing PCC Opregion handler(I have more questions on setting up one, will
follow that up separately).
-->8
ACPI Error: No handler for Region [PFRM] ((____ptrval____)) [PCC] (20210730/evregion-130)
ACPI Error: Region PCC (ID=10) has no handler (20210730/exfldio-261)
ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB.ETH0._PS3 due to previous error (AE_NOT_EXIST) (20210730/psparse-531)
Not sure if my interpretation of the spec is incorrect or indeed this is
a bug. IIUC only _REG has both PCC channel index/address + the subtable type
embedded in the argument. The actual declaration of PCC Opregion just needs
the channel index as the address.
