I'm not sure this is anything to be really concerned about, but you might be 
able to clear the ACPI warning by inserting the following into your GRUB boot 
params - "acpi_enforce_resources=lax"

Looks like the BIOS and Linux kernel are battling over some memory allocation.

https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt

        acpi_enforce_resources= [ACPI]
                        { strict | lax | no }
                        Check for resource conflicts between native drivers
                        and ACPI OperationRegions (SystemIO and SystemMemory
                        only). IO ports and memory declared in ACPI might be
                        used by the ACPI subsystem in arbitrary AML code and
                        can interfere with legacy drivers.
                        strict (default): access to resources claimed by ACPI
                        is denied; legacy drivers trying to access reserved
                        resources will fail to bind to device using them.
                        lax: access to resources claimed by ACPI is allowed;
                        legacy drivers trying to access reserved resources
                        will bind successfully but a warning message is logged.
                        no: ACPI OperationRegions are not marked as reserved,
                        no further checks are performed.

As for the "firmware bug", that appears to be a remnant from an old check that 
BIOS programmers used to see if someone is running Linux. Modern Linux kernels 
ignore the request which is what I believe is being reported there.

You can "quiet down" these errors, if you want, by changing 
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to "quiet loglevel=3". That's going to only show 
messages that hit level 3 and not BIOS warnings which should be level 4.

What motherboard and BIOS version are you using?

Hi team,

I have seen this error from day one on my system, however ignored it until 
(when my wifi and GPU were agressively competing for memory allocation) caused 
black screen until I stabilised the wifi up/down...

ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x...B00-0x...B08 conflicts with OpRegion ... 
(\GSA1.SMBI)
ACPI: [Firmware Bug]: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored

While resolved for now worried this could cause an issue in the future. I have 
seen various ideas and solutions online, inc setting:


  *   acpi_osi=Linux
  *
acpi_osi=!
  *
acpi_osi="Windows 2009"

etc.

Is this something you have encountered? Anyone have any suggestions?

thanks!
