Guys can anyone clear this out for me, I'm a bit confused.

I'm using a debugged dsdt on my default gentoo instalation and the main reason why I (and those who helped) started messing with the dsdt was the lack of battery status. No info on current charge status.

Today I tried a liveCD of the latest kubuntu series, and I was surprised to see that the battery display was working just fine there... Same goes for slax (another liveCD). So it kinda hit me... How did they do it? I think that including custom dsdt's in the kernel would be impossible so how did they managed to make it work just like that?

Anyone has any ideas?


Newer kernel perhaps?

Nope ... the same with ubuntu and older with slax. Probably some custom patch, but I would like to see what is capable of and if possible request to be included in gentoo default patches.

@atrus123
the solution for your prob :

^ Not all control paths return a value

#######insert a Return at the end of this method:

Return (Package(0x02){0x00,0x00})

#######you can find details here: http://home.fhtw-berlin.de/~s0502837/r31/

My battery status works just fine with A6T and gentoo.
I've put my .config at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-560048-highlight-a6t.html perhaps it could help.

It seems that the custom laptop support in the kernel addresses some of the battery status I mentioned before.
I'm not sure which module does the job, but when booting the liveCDs there are several acpi modules loaded. These correspond to asus acpi, toshiba acpi, and others... all of them included in the vanilla kernel.

Loading these modules seems to workaround the battery problem, at least in my case. And Acer is not listed nor mentioned in the kernel so I just left those modules out...

Thanks to all that helped. I've uploaded a working dsdt for the Toshiba Satellite P105-S6177 to acpi.sourceforge.net. My system is dualbooted with both Gentoo and openSUSE, and sound now works in both.

so can anyone tell me if removing the underscores fixes the reserved word error...you never actually say in any of the reading.

I have a few errors..mostly around the reserved word

Code:

I was looking around in http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/view.php?manufacturer=Toshiba for an already ready fixed version. It seems my laptop model isn't shown there.

I am going to have to do this myself but I don't want to kill my laptop.

I have the same problem these options do not appear in my .config or in menuconfig

Kernel version: 2.6.20-gentoo-r8

I am going to upgrade to 2.6.21 to see if that solves the problem, but it should be noted that the option isnt there on that kernel version.

That option actually IS there.. But you have to look for the options that have to do with firmware. If I recall correctly (can't get to a gentoo machine right now), you have to disable something called 'don't build drivers that require firmware' plus the option right underneath or above that. This is 'hidden' in the drivers section, not in the acpi one. When you've done that, the items you were looking for will appear in the acpi section.

I've had a hard time finding them too :D

Could someone help me out, with my dsdt?

Code:
iasl -tc dsdt.dsl

Intel ACPI Component Architecture
ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20060912 [Jul  2 2007]
Copyright (C) 2000 - 2006 Intel Corporation
Supports ACPI Specification Revision 3.0a

dsdt.dsl   172:     Method (_WAK, 1, NotSerialized)
Warning  1079 -                ^ Reserved method must return a value (_WAK)

dsdt.dsl  1057:                                 If (Local1)
Error    4049 - Method local variable is not initialized ^  (Local1)

dsdt.dsl  3164:                     Field (ERAM, AnyAcc, Lock, Preserve)

ASL Input:  dsdt.dsl - 4694 lines, 183539 bytes, 2049 keywords
Compilation complete. 2 Errors, 1 Warnings, 0 Remarks, 646 Optimizations


So, on to fixing it:

Code:
nano +172 dsdt.dsl

 Method (_WAK, 1, NotSerialized)
    {
        Store (0x01, BATN)
        If (LEqual (Arg0, 0x03)) {}

        {

        If (LGreaterEqual (OSTP, 0x01))
        {

            Notify (\_SB.PCI0.IDEC.SECD.S_D0, 0x01)
        }
    }

Replaced with:
Code:


Method (_WAK, 1, NotSerialized)
    {
        Store (0x01, BATN)
        If (LEqual (Arg0, 0x03)) {}
        If (LEqual (Arg0, 0x04))
        {
            Notify (\_SB.PWRB, 0x02)
            \_SB.PCI0.LPC0.PHSS (0x0F)
        }

        If (LGreaterEqual (OSTP, 0x01))
        {
            Notify (\_SB.PCI0.IDEC.SECD, 0x00)
            Notify (\_SB.PCI0.IDEC.SECD.S_D0, 0x01)
        }
        Return (Package (0x02)
        {
             0x00,
             0x00
        })
    }


Code:
nano +3164 dsdt.dsl
                    OperationRegion (ERAM, EmbeddedControl, 0x00, 0xFF)
                    Field (ERAM, AnyAcc, Lock, Preserve)
                    {

Replaced with:
Code:

                    OperationRegion (ERAM, EmbeddedControl, 0x00, 0xFF)
                    Field (ERAM, ByteAcc, Lock, Preserve)
                    {

The only thing that's still bugging me is line 1057, Local1 not being initialized.
Code:

 Device (LPC0)
            {
                Method (SWAP, 0, NotSerialized)
                {

                    If (LOr (LEqual (Local0, 0x04), LEqual (Local0, 0x08)))
                    {
                        If (LEqual (\_SB.PCI0.LPC0.SPWR, 0x00))
                        {
                            Store (0x01, \_SB.PCI0.LPC0.SPWR)
                            Sleep (0x1E)
                            And (\_SB.PCI0.IDEC.ICR4, 0x03, \_SB.PCI0.IDEC.ICR4)
                            Sleep (0x1E)
                            Store (0x01, \_SB.PCI0.LPC0.SRST)

                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                    Else

After upgrading to gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r1 my ecdt is missing, worked in 2.6.20.

Code:

ACPI Error (evregion-0316): No handler for Region [EC__] (ffff81005e908560) [EmbeddedControl] [20070126]
ACPI Error (exfldio-0289): Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no handler [20070126]
ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.EC__.BAT1._STA] (Node ffff81005e910670), AE_NOT_EXIST


Any suggestions ? I assume the patch in the first post does not work any more since it's a couple of years old.

Hello all,

I've fixed all of my issues but one.

" Statement is unreachable "

Code:

Context:-
dsdt.dsl   888:                         Name (PSIZ, 0x00)
Warning  1098 -         Statement is unreachable ^


Part taken from dsdt.dsl
Code:

       Name (PSIZ, 0x00)
                        Name (PPTR, 0x00)
                        \_SB.SSMI (0x82, 0x02)
                        Store (CADL, Local0)
                        Store (CADL, Local1)
                        Store (CADL, PADL)
                        While (Local1)


I've googled for quite sometime but can't seem to locate what to do to fix this. I've had some pointers at returning the PSIZ value but not sure how or even if this needs to be stored somewhere.

Anyone Have any ideas??

Thanks

For the 'Use of reserved word' errors, just rename all ocurrances of it with something else. I think I renamed all my '_T_0' to 'T_0'. I'm not sure about the access width. For the 'Not all control paths return a value', you need to stick a return in there. But I dont remember what it should be returning. You should be able to find what to return by searching around.

Hello all,

this is my first time as writer in this forum (but not my first time as reader).

I have a Acer 5720 notebook, and I have already fixed nearly all the bugs of my DSDT (many thanks to all the writers of this post, of course :wink: ).

It remains just the following Warning:

Quote:

dsdt.dsl 906: Method (_OSC, 5, NotSerialized)
Warning 1075 - ^ Reserved method has too many arguments (_OSC requires 4)


Unfortunately I cannot change the "5" with a "4" in the method declaration, since the fifth param is used into the method body!

Here is the method body (note the usage of the "Store (Arg4, BUF1)"):

Code:

            Method (_OSC, 5, NotSerialized)
            {
                Store (Arg3, Local0)
                Multiply (Local0, 0x04, Local1)
                Name (BUF1, Buffer (Local1) {})
                Store (Arg4, BUF1)
                Store (Zero, Local1)
                Store (Zero, Local2)
                While (Local0)
                {
                    Multiply (Local1, 0x04, Local2)
                    CreateDWordField (BUF1, Local2, CAPB)
                    If (Arg2)
                    {
                        If (LEqual (Local1, Zero))
                        {
                            And (CAPB, 0xFFFFFFFC)
                        }
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                    }

                    Increment (Local1)
                    Decrement (Local0)
                }

                Return (BUF1)
            }


any idea?

thanks in advance

Anyone know what to do to fix sillyness like:

Code:
ouka.dsl   332:             Store (Local0, Local0)
Error    4049 -                         ^ Method local variable is not initialized (Local0)


This of course makes absolutely no sense... Has anyone figured out a way to figure out what this statement was initially trying to accomplish? Or what to do to fix something like this?

(This showed up on my Abit IS7 and Foxconn G9657MA motherboards, eerily similar errors. Both use Award BIOS I think.)

My Foxconn's WOL doesn't work (there seems to be another warning related to that) as well as hangs randomly on boot while detecting ACPI... wonderring if this is related...

I would appreciate if someone could help me to track this warning down.
Thanks!

I believe such warning has something to do with hibernation/sleeping. My box just turn off after the sleeping time with no issues to syslog. Any clues are welcome.
Thanks.

I'm giving up on this ... Commenting out the notification code!
No lid events but at least no high CPU loads nor huge logs.


Hi! Maybe I'm posting a little late but I didn't pay attention to the A6T lid problem until recently.

I've read the whole discussion about A6T lid events and came to conclusion that the approach of modifying \SB.LID._LID() method was completely wrong. The real source of problem with events flood is straightforward approach to notification in \_GPE._L12 method. So, I've changed
Code:

                Scope (\_GPE)
                {
                    Method (_L12, 0, NotSerialized)
                    {
                        Notify (\_SB.LID, 0x80)
                    }
                }


to this:

Code:

                Scope (\_GPE)
                {
                    Name (LSTR, 0xFF)
                    Method (_L12, 0, Serialized)
                    {
                        While(LEqual (\_SB.LID._LID (), LSTR)) {
                            Sleep(0x80)
                        }

                        Store(\_SB.LID._LID (), LSTR)
                        Notify (\_SB.LID, 0x80)
                    }
                }


and voila! - it works as expected generating only one event per lid opening/closing respectively.
Maybe Sleep() argument needs adjusment though.

And for other Asus A6T users experiencing the same problem when the the CPU fan keeps running all the time if CPU temperature doesn't reach the threshold of about 50C I have working solution too: there's a need to add a call to \_GPE._L02 method (may be \_TZ.STRP will suffice - it's called from \_GPE._L02) to some code which is executed during either OS start and resume fom suspend/hibernation. So I've decided to put it in \_TZ._TMP before Return() statement:

Code:

                        Method (_TMP, 0, NotSerialized)
                        {
                            Store (0x05, Local1)
                            While (Local1)
                            {
                                Store (RTMP (), Local0)
                                If (LGreater (Local0, TCRT))
                                {
                                    Decrement (Local1)
                                }
                                Else
                                {
                                    Store (0x00, Local1)
                                }
                            }

                            \_GPE._L02 ()

                            Return (KELV (Local0))
                        }


The result is that fan works as expected running only when CPU temperature is really high.

You are right. There are many people asking questions not willing to answer them, even if they have found the solution.

I was having these errors, some of them similar to yours:

Code:
# iasl -tc dsdt.dsl

ASL Input:  dsdt.dsl - 3608 lines, 125528 bytes, 1401 keywords
AML Output: dsdt.aml - 13236 bytes 436 named objects 965 executable opcodes


I have been able to solve all of them by reading the posts in this thread: adding at the end of the method:
Code:
Return (Package (0x02)
        {
             0x00,
             0x00
        })


Hope it is helpful.

Cheers!
