[PATCH] ACPICA: add debug dump of BIOS _OSI strings

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

 



Bob,
I'd like to make this minor change to the (linuxized) ACPICA code,
for it can tell us a little about the BIOS w/o having the user
go to the trouble to dump the tables etc.

If you made this change in the upstream ACPICA code,
then that would be dandy.

thanks,
-Len

Subject: [PATCH] ACPICA: add debug dump of BIOS _OSI strings
Organization: Intel Open Source Technology Center

on boot, print out the OSI strings the BIOS uses to query the OS.

To see this output...

build with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG

boot with
"acpi.debug_level=4" (ACPI_LV_INFO) (enabled by default)
and
"acpi.debug_level=1" (ACPI_UTILITIES) (default is 0)

example output:

ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Windows 2001) supported
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Windows 2001 SP1) supported
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Windows 2001 SP2) supported
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Windows 2006) supported
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) not-supported
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(FreeBSD) not-supported
