This type of thing more often than not is caused by running the code through indent (lindent). Original ACPICA code: ACPI_FUNCTION_NAME (ExDumpOperand) /* Check if debug output enabled */ if (!ACPI_IS_DEBUG_ENABLED (ACPI_LV_EXEC, _COMPONENT)) { return; } Raw "linuxized" code: ACPI_FUNCTION_NAME (ex_dump_operand) /* Check if debug output enabled */ if (!ACPI_IS_DEBUG_ENABLED (ACPI_LV_EXEC, _COMPONENT)) { return; } > -----Original Message----- > From: rjwysocki@xxxxxxxxx [mailto:rjwysocki@xxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of > Rafael J.
