  • Fixed a problem with the internal Owner ID allocation and
    deallocation mechanisms for control method execution and
    recursive method invocation. This should eliminate the
    OWNER_ID_LIMIT exceptions and "Invalid OwnerId" messages
    seen on some systems. Recursive method invocation depth
    is currently limited to 255. (Alexey Starikovskiy)

    Completely eliminated all vestiges of support for the
    "module-level executable code" until this support is
    fully implemented and debugged. This should eliminate the
    NO_RETURN_VALUE exceptions seen during table load on some
    systems that invoke this support.

    Fixed a problem within the resource manager code where
    the transaction flags for a 64-bit address descriptor were
    handled incorrectly in the type-specific flag byte.

    Consolidated duplicate code within the address descriptor
    resource manager code, reducing overall subsystem code size.

  • Implemented support for PCI Express root bridges
    -- added support for device PNP0A08 in the root
    bridge search within AcpiEvPciConfigRegionSetup.
    acpi_ev_pci_config_region_setup().

    The interpreter now automatically truncates incoming
    64-bit constants to 32 bits if currently executing out
    of a 32-bit ACPI table (Revision < 2). This also affects
    the iASL compiler constant folding. (Note: as per below,
    the iASL compiler no longer allows 64-bit constants within
    32-bit tables.)

    Fixed a problem where string and buffer objects with
    "static" pointers (pointers to initialization data within
    an ACPI table) were not handled consistently. The internal
    object copy operation now always copies the data to a newly
    allocated buffer, regardless of whether the source object
    is static or not.

    Fixed a problem with the FromBCD operator where an
    implicit result conversion was improperly performed while
    storing the result to the target operand. Since this is an
    "explicit conversion" operator, the implicit conversion
    should never be performed on the output.

    Fixed a problem with the CopyObject operator where a copy
    to an existing named object did not always completely
    overwrite the existing object stored at name. Specifically,
    a buffer-to-buffer copy did not delete the existing buffer.

    Replaced "interrupt_level" with "interrupt_number" in all
    GPE interfaces and structs for consistency.

  • Fixed three cases in the interpreter where an "index"
    argument to an ASL function was still (internally) 32
    bits instead of the required 64 bits. This was the Index
    argument to the Index, Mid, and Match operators.

    The "strupr" function is now permanently local
    (acpi_ut_strupr), since this is not a POSIX-defined
    function and not present in most kernel-level C
    libraries. References to the C library strupr function
    have been removed from the headers.

    Completed the deployment of static
    functions/prototypes. All prototypes with the static
    attribute have been moved from the headers to the owning
    C file.

    An error is now generated if an attempt is made to create
    a Buffer Field of length zero (A CreateField with a length
    operand of zero.)

    The interpreter now issues a warning whenever executable
    code at the module level is detected during ACPI table
    load. This will give some idea of the prevalence of this
    type of code.

    Implemented support for references to named objects (other
    than control methods) within package objects.

    Enhanced package object output for the debug
    object. Package objects are now completely dumped, showing
    all elements.

    Enhanced miscellaneous object output for the debug
    object. Any object can now be written to the debug object
    (for example, a device object can be written, and the type
    of the object will be displayed.)

    The "static" qualifier has been added to all local
    functions across the core subsystem.

    The number of "long" lines (> 80 chars) within the source
    has been significantly reduced, by about 1/3.

    Cleaned up all header files to ensure that all CA/iASL
    functions are prototyped (even static functions) and the
    formatting is consistent.

    Two new header files have been added, acopcode.h and
    acnames.h.

    Removed several obsolete functions that were no longer
    used.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
