Hi, Just noticed today, but they perhaps exist for quite some time. I'm recording ACPI errors on my hp workstation zx6000 when booting 3.9 and 3.10 kernels (didn't try earlier kernels): [ 25.509388] libata version 3.00 loaded. [ 25.514781] ACPI Error: [LBAS] Namespace lookup failure, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20130328/dswload2-330) [ 25.514884] ACPI Exception: AE_ALREADY_EXISTS, During name lookup/catalog (20130328/psobject-222) [ 25.514965] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\LBA_.PRT_] (Node e000 0040831e5af0), AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20130328/psparse-537) [ 25.515087] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.SBA0.PCI1._PRT] (Node e0000040831e5cd0), AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20130328/psparse-537) [ 25.515211] ACPI: Marking method _PRT as Serialized because of AE_ALREADY_EXISTS error [ 25.515302] ACPI Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.SBA0.PCI1._PRT] (Node e0000040831e5cd0), AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20130328/uteval-103) [ 25.515429] tg3 0000:20:02.0: can't derive routing for PCI INT A [ 25.515466] tg3 0000:20:02.0: PCI INT A: no GSI [ 25.630678] ACPI: Marking method PRT_ as Serialized because of AE_ALREADY_EXISTS error Can they be safely ignored? How to read them to find which devices they refer to? Google can find references of identical errors on other arches too. Does it mean that there's nothing that can be done to fix them? On some occurences, these errors were caused by kernel misconfiguration.
