[PATCH 4/5] ACPI / sysfs: Fix an issue for LoadTable opcode

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

 



OEM tables can be installed via RSDT/XSDT, in this case, they have already
been created under /sys/firmware/acpi/tables.

For this kind of tables, normally LoadTable opcode will be executed to load
them. If LoadTable opcode is executed after acpi_sysfs_init(),
acpi_sysfs_table_handler() will be invoked, thus a redundant table file
will be created under /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/dynamic. Then running
"acpidump" on such platform results in an error.
