Re: ACPI v5 sleep registers broken on Toshiba laptops

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

 



One thing that wasn't clear to me from the code is why the new sleep
registers are used any time they have defined addresses rather than
only when the reduced hardware flag is set. I poked through the ACPI
v5 spec and it seems to indicate that the sleep registers are only for
reduced hardware. On the other hand it doesn't explicitly say to not
use them on non-reduced hardware either. But maybe I missed something,
that document is huge. :-P

Cheers,
Mike
