I think the reason problem is that: 1. there are zero length IO/Memory resources for these machines, and for those resources a) w/o commit b355cee88e3b1a193f0e9a81db810f6f83ad728b, acpi_dev_resource_memory/io returns true b) w commit b355cee88e3b1a193f0e9a81db810f6f83ad728b, acpi_dev_resource_memory/io returns false 2. in pnpacpi_allocated_resource(), when acpi_dev_resource_memory/io() returns false, it translates into "the resource is not IO/Memory resource". IMO, the root cause is that the BOOL return value of acpi_dev_resource_memory/io() can not represent the following three situations 1) a valid IO/Memory resource 2) an invalid IO/Memory resource 3) not an IO/Memory resource Thanks, rui > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-acpi-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:linux-acpi- > owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rafael J.
