[PATCH v2 2/2] Documentation: ACPI: Direct references are allowed to devices only

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

 



In ACPI it is possible to make references to device objects only, not to
other objects inside a device. In practice this means that hierarchical
data extension targets must be in parentheses to make them strings.

Otherwise an acpica warning is produced.
