TODO revision 1.4
11.1SmycroftImportant things to make ACPI useful on more machines: 21.1Smycroft 31.4Smycroft* Split the Region initialization into two passes -- one that fills in 41.4Smycroft AddressSpace pointers, and one that calls _REG methods. Right now we 51.4Smycroft can lose due to a _REG method for one Region calling a method that 61.4Smycroft accesses another Region that hasn't been fixed up yet. (Affects 71.4Smycroft Sverre Froyen's HP Omnibook 6000.) 81.4Smycroft 91.3Smycroft* Fix problems with ACPI_PCI_FIXUP. CardBus slots do not work in some 101.4Smycroft machines currently. (Affects many machines.) 111.3Smycroft 121.2Smycroft* Add support for attaching acpiec devices early using the ECDT. Some 131.2Smycroft systems need this because otherwise their _INI methods try to access 141.4Smycroft regions in the EC space before it's initialized. (Affects Steve 151.4Smycroft Rumble's Thinkpad T23.) 161.4Smycroft 171.4Smycroft* Deal with the "implicit return" problem for older laptops. (Mostly 181.4Smycroft affects older Toshiba laptops, like the Portege 7140.) 191.1Smycroft 201.1Smycroft* Fix the locking protocol in acpiec. 211.1Smycroft 221.1Smycroft* Support thermal levels and fan control in acpitz. 231.1Smycroft 241.3Smycroft- mycroft, 2003/11/02 25
