|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd device acpi
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Cd options ACPI_DEBUG
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for the Intel/Microsoft/Compaq/Toshiba ACPI
|
|
standard.
|
|
This support includes platform hardware discovery (superseding the
|
|
PnP and PCI BIOS), as well as power management (superseding APM) and
|
|
other features.
|
|
ACPI core support is provided by the ACPI CA reference implementation
|
|
from Intel.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver is automatically loaded by the bootloader, and should not normally
|
|
be compiled into the kernel.
|
|
.Sh ENVIRONMENT
|
|
This support is still experimental, and thus there are many debugging
|
|
and tuning options which are managed via the kernel environment
|
|
space, and set in the
|
|
.Xr loader 8
|
|
before booting the kernel.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Debugging is separated between layers and levels, where a layer is
|
|
a portion of the ACPI subsystem, and a level is a particular kind
|
|
of debugging output.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Both layers and levels are specified as a whitespace-separated list of
|
|
tokens, with layers listed in
|
|
.Va debug.acpi.layer
|
|
and levels in
|
|
.Va debug.acpi.level .
|
|

|
Selection of the appropriate layer and level values is important
|
|
to avoid massive amounts of debugging output.
|
|
Check the code to see which you need.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Debugging output by the ACPI CA subsystem is prefixed with the
|
|
module name in lowercase, followed by a source line number.
|
|
Output from the
|
|
.Fx Ns -local
|
|
code follows the same format, but
|
|
the module name is uppercased.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To disable the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver completely, set the kernel environment variable
|
|
.Va hint.acpi.0.disabled
|
|
to
|
|
.Dq 1 .
|
|
Some i386 machines totally fail to operate with some or all of ACPI disabled.
|
|
Other i386 machines fail with ACPI enabled.
|
|
Non-i386 platforms do not support operating systems which do not use ACPI.
|
|
Disabling all or part of ACPI on non-i386 platforms may result in a
|
|
non-functional system.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver comprises a set of drivers, which may be selectively disabled
|
|
in case of problems.
|
|
To disable a sub-driver, list it in the kernel
|
|
environment variable
|
|
.Va debug.acpi.disable .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
ACPI sub-devices and features that can be disabled:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width children
|
|
.It Li bus
|
|
.Pq Vt feature
|
|
Probes and attaches subdevices.
|
|
Disabling will avoid scanning the ACPI namespace entirely.
|
|
.It Li children
|
|
.Pq Vt feature
|
|
Attaches standard ACPI sub-drivers and devices enumerated in the
|
|
ACPI namespace.
|
|
Disabling this has a similar effect to disabling
|
|
.Dq Li bus ,
|
|
except that the
|
|
ACPI namespace will still be scanned.
|
|
.It Li button
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports ACPI button devices (typically power and sleep buttons).
|
|
.It Li ec
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports the ACPI Embedded Controller interface, used to
|
|
communicate with embedded platform controllers.
|
|
.It Li isa
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports an ISA bus bridge defined in the ACPI namespace,
|
|
typically as a child of a PCI bus.
|
|
.It Li lid
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports an ACPI laptop lid switch, which typically puts a
|
|
system to sleep.
|
|
.It Li pci
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports Host to PCI bridges.
|
|
.It Li cpu
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports CPU power-saving and speed-setting functions.
|
|
.It Li thermal
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Supports system cooling and heat management.
|
|
.It Li timer
|
|
.Pq Vt device
|
|
Implements a timecounter using the ACPI fixed-frequency timer.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It is also possible to avoid portions of the ACPI namespace which
|
|
may be causing problems, by listing the full path of the root of
|
|
the region to be avoided in the kernel environment variable
|
|
.Va debug.acpi.avoid .
|
|
The object and all of its children will be ignored during the
|
|
bus/children scan of the namespace.
|
|
The ACPI CA code will still
|
|
know about the avoided region.
|
|
.Sh OVERRIDING YOUR BIOS BYTECODE
|
|
ACPI interprets bytecode named AML, ACPI Machine Language, provided by the BIOS
|
|
vendor as a memory image at boot time.
|
|
Sometimes, the AML code contains
|
|
a problem that does not appear in the Microsoft implementation.
|
|
So we provide a way to override it with your own AML code.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In order to load your AML code,
|
|
you must edit
|
|
.Pa /boot/loader.conf
|
|
and
|
|
include the following lines.
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
acpi_dsdt_load="YES"
|
|
acpi_dsdt_name="/boot/acpi_dsdt.aml" #You may change the name.
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In order to prepare your AML code, you will need the
|
|
.Xr acpidump 8
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr iasl 1
|
|
utilities from the
|
|
.Pa devel/acpicatools
|
|
port, and some ACPI knowledge.
|
|
.Sh COMPATIBILITY
|
|
ACPI is only found/supported on Intel platforms (i386/IA32 and IA64).

If the

|
.Nm
|
|
driver is loaded as a module when it is already linked as part of the
|
|
kernel, odd things may happen.
