Thanks for all the ACPI dumps everyone! I think I have enough of a sample
set now, no more, please! :)
Hmm.. the acpiscan should not be core dumping; there maybe an invalid
address in the ACPI table?

Jordan Hargrave (your friendly IPMI developer) has been plugging away at
ACPI.
He has written an ASL parser and an AML interpreter. Jordan also wrote a
userland tool that dumps the ACPI tables and all kinds of other things. We
can
then replay these dumps to test the ASL parser and AML interpreter. In
order
to be able to test the AML interpreter we need as many ACPI dumps as
possible.
This is where *you* come in...
You can find the binary and source at:
http://www.peereboom.us/acpi.tgz
I added the source code + silly makefile so that you can roll your own
acpiscan. Simply delete the binary I provided (compiled on 3.8-current)
and
run "make".
As root run the following command:
./acpiscan -save descriptive_name_of_box
example: ./acpiscan -save dell_pe1850
This will generate 3 files:
dell_pe1850.DSDT
dell_pe1850.FACP
dell_pe1850.RSDT
Yes, acpiscan WILL core dump at the end. Its supposed to!
Tar and compress these files and send them to jordan@ and [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks,
/marco
