[PATCH v3 1/4] ACPI / EC: Enhance boot EC sanity check

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

 



It's reported that some buggy BIOS tables can contain 2 DSDT ECs, one of
them is invalid but acpi_ec_dsdt_probe() fails to pick the valid one.
This patch simply enhances sanity checks in ec_parse_device() as a
workaround to skip probing wrong namespace ECs.
