[PATCH v4 1/2] IPMI/ACPI: use ACPI detection mechanism firstly to detect IPMI system interface

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

 



From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx>

Sometimes one IPMI system interface will be detected by several methods.
For example: ACPI mechanism, SPMI table, DMI or hardcode mechanism.
In such case when one IPMI system interface can be detected in two mechanism,
the second mechanism will fail in the detection and can't record which IPMI
system interface is detected by it.

Use the ACPI detection mechanism firstly to detect the IPMI system interface
so that we can know which IPMI system interface is detected in ACPI namespace.
