I'm working on bringing in some laptop (and especially thinkpad) specific ACPI code from FreeBSD into DragonFly. I never touched ACPI stuff before and haven't followed it much either, so I have some questions.
* FreeBSD uses ACPI_SERIAL_* heavily. What's the locking situation in DragonFly and why? * As far as I can see, PCI integration is commented out in DragonFly. What's the state of it and why? * platform/pc32/acpica5/acpi_toshiba.c - why is it there? I don't think that this is something pc32 specific in it and it should work in pc64 laptops as well. Any objections to move it into dev/acpica5/acpi_toshiba/ ? What's the current status of ACPI in general? AFAICS our acpica is quite old - what needs to be done to bring in newer one? -- Hasso
