[PATCH 31/94] ACPICA: Fix to allow aliases within ASL namepaths

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

 



From: Bob Moore <robert.moore@xxxxxxxxx>

Fixes a problem where the use of an alias within a namepath
would result in a not found error or cause the compiler to fault.
Also now allows forward references from the Alias operator itself.
ACPICA BZ 738.
