In this case, acpi_get_osc_data() would allocate a useless memory region. To avoid this, we need to check the existence of _OSC before calling acpi_get_osc_data(). Here is a patch to fix this problem. It is against your patch. --- drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) Index: linux-2.6.26-rc2/drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.26-rc2.orig/drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c +++ linux-2.6.26-rc2/drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c @@ -232,8 +232,14 @@ acpi_status pci_osc_control_set(acpi_han { acpi_status status; u32 ctrlset; - struct acpi_osc_data *osc_data = acpi_get_osc_data(handle); + acpi_handle tmp; + struct acpi_osc_data *osc_data; + + status = acpi_get_handle(handle, "_OSC", &tmp); + if (ACPI_FAILURE(status)) + return status; + osc_data = acpi_get_osc_data(handle); if (!osc_data) { printk(KERN_ERR "acpi osc data array is full\n"); return AE_ERROR; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
