This change will repair (by sorting) packages returned by _ALR,
_PSS, and _TSS. Drivers can now assume that the packages are
correctly sorted. Adds one new file, namespace/nsrepair2.c
ACPICA BZ 784. Lin Ming, Bob Moore.
Add new file for handling of ASL External() statements. Consolidates
all such code, it is used only for iASL disassembler (not kernel code
or acpiexec.)
Completed a major update for the AcpiGetObjectInfo external interface.
Changes include:
- Support for variable, unlimited length HID, UID, and CID strings
- Support Processor objects the same as Devices (HID,UID,CID,ADR,STA, etc.)
- Call the _SxW power methods on behalf of a device object
- Determine if a device is a PCI root bridge
- Change the ACPI_BUFFER parameter to ACPI_DEVICE_INFO.
These changes will require an update to all callers of this interface.
See the ACPICA Programmer Reference for details.
