From: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@xxxxxxxxx> Some BIOS on Toshiba machines corrupt the DSDT, so add a new boot option acpi=copy_dsdt to workaround it. Add warning message to ask users to use this option if corrupt DSDT detected. Also build a DMI blacklist to check it and automatically copy DSDT. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14679 Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt | 1 + arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c | 4 +++ drivers/acpi/acpica/tbutils.c | 4 +++ drivers/acpi/bus.c | 37 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt b/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt index e2202e9..93f113a 100644 --- a/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt +++ b/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt @@ -151,6 +151,7 @@ and is between 256 and 4096 characters.
