Hi
This patch set is to add the support of dumping ACPI table through the
interface of /sys/firmware/acpi/tables. It contains the following three patches.
They are based on pmtools-20101221 under
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/
[Patch 1/3]: Clean up patch (Complain the table name of dynamic SSDT table
with the wrong checksum)
[Patch 2/3]: Prefer dumping the ACPI table through /sys/firmware/acpi/tables
This patch adds the support of dumping ACPI table through the interface of
/sys/firmware/acpi/tables. And this mechansim is preferred. In case it fails in
dumping ACPI table, it will then fall back to the conventional dumping mechanism
by mapping /dev/mem.(For example: when the system is booted with ACPI disabled,
we can't dump ACPI table through /sys/firmware/acpi/tables any more).
[Patch 3/3]: Add one option to dump ACPI table through mapping /dev/mem.
Best regards.
Yakui
