Makefiles for tool generation from the unix tarball --------------------------------------------------- These makefiles are intended to generate the ACPICA utilities in a Linux or Unix-like environment, from the ACPICA source code as released in the unix tarball. Windows binary versions of these tools are available at: http://www.acpica.org/downloads/binary_tools.php Documentation is available at acpica.org: http://www.acpica.org/documentation/ The acpica/source/tools directory contains the following utilities. Note: These utilities are tested and supported as 32-bit versions only. acpibin acpiexec acpihelp acpinames acpisrc acpixtract iasl Requirements ------------ make gcc compiler (4+) bison or yacc flex or lex Configuration ------------- The Makefiles contain this configuration information: HOST = _LINUX /* Host system, must appear in acenv.h */ CC = gcc /* C compiler */ 1) acpibin, an AML file tool acpibin compares AML files, dumps AML binary files to text files, extracts binary AML from text files, and other AML file manipulation. To compile: cd acpica/source/tools/acpibin make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */ 2) acpiexec, a user-space AML interpreter acpiexec allows the loading of ACPI tables and execution of control methods from user space. Useful for debugging AML code and testing the AML interpreter. Hardware access is simulated. To compile: cd acpica/source/tools/acpiexec make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */ 3) acpihelp, syntax help for ASL operators and reserved names acpihelp displays the syntax for all of the ASL operators, as well as information about the ASL/ACPI reserved names (4-char names that start with underscore.) To compile: cd acpica/source/tools/acpihelp make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */ 4) acpinames, load and dump acpi namespace acpinames loads an ACPI namespace from a binary ACPI table file. This is a smaller version of acpiexec that loads an acpi table and dumps the resulting namespace. It is primarily intended to demonstrate the configurability of ACPICA. To compile: cd acpica/source/tools/acpinames make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */ 5) acpisrc, a source code conversion tool acpisrc converts the standard form of the acpica source release (included here) into a version that meets Linux coding guidelines. This consists mainly of performing a series of string replacements and transformations to the code. It can also be used to clean the acpica source and generate statistics. To compile: cd acpica/source/tools/acpisrc make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */ 6) acpixtract, extract binary ACPI tables from an acpidump acpixtract is used to extract binary ACPI tables from the ASCII text output of an acpidump utility (available on several different hosts.) To compile: cd acpica/source/tools/acpixtract make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */ 7) iasl, an optimizing ASL compiler/disassembler iasl compiles ASL (ACPI Source Language) into AML (ACPI Machine Language). This AML is suitable for inclusion as a DSDT in system firmware. It also can disassemble AML, for debugging purposes. To compile: cd acpica/source/compiler make make install /* install the binary to /usr/bin */
