RE: ACPI support in Linux?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Linux uses a very recent version of ACPICA, which supports ACPI 3.0b

The iASL compiler mostly supports 3.0b, although there are a few features that have yet to be implemented -- so the compiler only advertises that it supports 3.0a

Linux supported 3.0b well before it was published.
See include/acpi/acconfig.h:
/* Version of ACPI supported */
#define ACPI_CA_SUPPORT_LEVEL           3

Do you see any feature not implemented of what?
