So, what I see in Elkhart Lake
Case 1 - Sound Wire devices (2 times):
Name (_ADR, 0x40000000) // _ADR: Address
Name (_CID, Package (0x02) // _CID: Compatible ID
{
"PRP00001",
"PNP0A05" /* Generic Container Device */
})
Case 2 - GP DMA devices (3 times):
Name (_ADR, 0x001D0003) // _ADR: Address
Name (_HID, "80864BB4") // _HID: Hardware ID
Case 3 - Camera PMIC devices (5 x 2 (CLPn/DSCn) + 1 (PMIC) times = 11x):
Name (_ADR, Zero) // _ADR: Address
Name (_HID, "INT3472") // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_CID, "INT3472") // _CID: Compatible ID
Case 4 - LNK devices (6 times):
Name (_ADR, Zero) // _ADR: Address
...
Name (_UID, One) // _UID: Unique ID
Method (_HID, 0, NotSerialized) // _HID: Hardware ID
{
Return (HCID (One))
}
Case 5 - Camera sensors (2 times):
Name (_ADR, Zero) // _ADR: Address
Name (_HID, "INT34xx") // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_CID, "INT34xx") // _CID: Compatible ID
I have no idea about cameras or audio devices, but what I'm worrying about
is GP DMA. This kind of devices are PCI, but due to Microsoft hack, called
CSRT, we have to have a possibility to match DSDT with CSRT ot retrieve
the crucial information from the latter while being enumerated by the former.
While it may be against the specification, there is no other way to achieve
that as far as I understand (without either breaking things in Linux or
getting yellow bang in Windows).
Can you confirm that your change won't modify behaviour for these devices?
