[UPDATE PATCH 14/18] ACPICA: Fix for implicit result conversion for the ToXxx functions

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

 



From: Bob Moore <robert.moore@xxxxxxxxx>

ACPICA commit e1342c9f2dde37a67e916099658b65984ef8a434

Implicit result conversion was incorrectly disabled for the
following functions:
FromBCD
ToBCD
ToDecimalString
ToHexString
ToInteger
ToBuffer

Subject rephrased by Lv Zheng due to SMTP 550:
 The capital Triple-X in subject is a way too often associated with junk
 email.
