Conditionally compile the multi-thread support so that threading
libraries will not be linked if not necessary. The only tool
that requires multi-thread support is AcpiExec.
Implements some typechecking for values returned by any ACPI
predefiend control methods. Only the direct return of static (unnamed)
values are checked. For example, Return(1). ACPICA BZ 786.
This change will enable debug object output via a global variable,
AcpiGbl_EnableAmlDebugObject. This will help with remote machine
debugging. Also, moved all debug object support code to a new file,
executer/exdebug.c. Entire debug object module can now be configured
out of the ACPICA build if desired. Lin Ming, Bob Moore.
Add 2010 copyright to all module headers and signons, including the Linux
header. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem,
iASL compiler, and all utilities.
Add limited support for executable AML code that exists outside of
any control method. This type of code has been illegal since ACPI 2.0.
The code must exist in an If/Else/While block. All AML tables are
supported, including tables that are dynamically loaded.
ACPICA BZ 762. Lin Ming.
Add 2009 copyright to all module headers and signons, including the Linux
header. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem,
iASL compiler, and all utilities.
Removed the "$Revision" number that appeared in each module header.
This version number was useful under SourceSafe and CVS, but has no
meaning under git. It is not only incorrect, it could also be
misleading.
Fix some sloppiness in the Reference object. No longer use AML opcodes to
differentiate the types, introduce new reference Class. Cleanup the debug
output code.
Added 2008 copyright to all module headers and signons. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem, iASL compiler, and the utilities.
Implemented support to allow multiple files to be compiled/disassembled in a single invocation. This includes command line wildcard support for both the Windows and Unix versions of the compiler. This feature simplifies the disassembly and compilation of multiple ACPI tables in a single directory.
Added 2007 copyright to all module headers and signons. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA core subsystem, iASL compiler, and the utilities.
