-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2013-18756 2013-10-10 14:20:22 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : acpica-tools Product : Fedora 20 Version : 20130823 Release : 5.fc20 URL : https://www.acpica.org/ Summary : ACPICA tools for the development and debug of ACPI tables Description : The ACPI Component Architecture (ACPICA) project provides an OS-independent reference implementation of the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification (ACPI). ACPICA code contains those portions of ACPI meant to be directly integrated into the host OS as a kernel-resident subsystem, and a small set of tools to assist in developing and debugging ACPI tables. This package contains only the user-space tools needed for ACPI table development, not the kernel implementation of ACPI. The following commands are installed: -- iasl: compiles ASL (ACPI Source Language) into AML (ACPI Machine Language), suitable for inclusion as a DSDT in system firmware. It also can disassemble AML, for debugging purposes. -- acpibin: performs basic operations on binary AML files (e.g., comparison, data extraction) -- acpidump: write out the current contents of ACPI tables -- acpiexec: simulate AML execution in order to debug method definitions -- acpihelp: display help messages describing ASL keywords and op-codes -- acpinames: display complete ACPI name space from input AML -- acpisrc: manipulate the ACPICA source tree and format source files for specific environments -- acpixtract: extract binary ACPI tables from acpidump output (see also the pmtools package) This version of the tools is being released under GPLv2 license. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: corrects replacement version number so iasl is obsoleted and replaced properly Fix a testing script so that it can run on s390x properly. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1010971 - acpica-tools conflicts with iasl https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010971 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update acpica-tools' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/. All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.
