Bjorn Helgaas1c48aa32009-02-19 14:45:47 -070014 Linux requires an ACPI-compliant platform (hardware/firmware),
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070015 and assumes the presence of OS-directed configuration and power
16 management (OSPM) software. This option will enlarge your

19 Linux ACPI provides a robust functional replacement for several
20 legacy configuration and power management interfaces, including
21 the Plug-and-Play BIOS specification (PnP BIOS), the
22 MultiProcessor Specification (MPS), and the Advanced Power
23 Management (APM) specification. If both ACPI and APM support
Bjorn Helgaas1c48aa32009-02-19 14:45:47 -070024 are configured, ACPI is used.

Thomas Renninger1195a092010-07-16 13:11:31 +020086 An Embedded Controller typically is available on laptops and reads
87 sensor values like battery state and temperature.
Thomas Renninger500de3dd2010-07-29 22:30:24 +020088 The kernel accesses the EC through ACPI parsed code provided by BIOS
89 tables. This option allows to access the EC directly without ACPI
90 code being involved.
Thomas Renninger1195a092010-07-16 13:11:31 +020091 Thus this option is a debug option that helps to write ACPI drivers
92 and can be used to identify ACPI code or EC firmware bugs.
