[PATCH v2 0/2] Clean up ACPI Boot Error Record Table code

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

 



From: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx>

ACPI 6.1 spec clarified the structure of the Boot Error Record Table.
Linux code was overly complex, and included a redundant structure
definition of "acpi_bert_region".

v2 changes:
Rafael: Split the change to <acpi/actbl1.h> into a separate patch so
	it can be fed through ACPICA process.
Boris:  Better wording for the comment about the "address" field in 
	the acpi_table_bert structure.

Tony Luck (2):
  ACPI / APEI: Boot Error Record Table processing was needlessly
    complicated
  ACPI / APEI: No remaining users of struct acpi_bert_region
