From 8df3fc981dc12d9fdcaef4100a2193b605024d7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bob Moore Date: Sat, 23 Oct 2010 01:36:40 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Subject: [PATCH] ACPICA: Fix Scope() op in module level code Some Panasonic Toughbooks create nodes in module level code. Module level code is the executable AML code outside of control method, for example, below AML code creates a node \_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02.CUBL If (\_OSI ("Windows 2006")) { Scope (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02) { Name (CUBL, Ones) ... } } Scope() op does not actually create a new object, it refers to an existing object(\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02 in above example). However, for Scope(), we want to indeed open a new scope, so the child nodes(CUBL in above example) can be created correctly under it. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19462 Signed-off-by: Bob Moore Signed-off-by: Lin Ming Signed-off-by: Len Brown --- drivers/acpi/acpica/dswexec.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/acpica/dswexec.c b/drivers/acpi/acpica/dswexec.c index d555b374e314..6b0b5d08d97a 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/acpica/dswexec.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/acpica/dswexec.c @@ -300,10 +300,25 @@ acpi_ds_exec_begin_op(struct acpi_walk_state *walk_state, * we must enter this object into the namespace.
