Al Stone of Red Hat posted a summary of the recent Firmware Summit that took place at the recent Linaro Connect event.
There’s a discussion on the state of ACPI on ARMv8, and Linux support. “So, please tell Linaro if there is something needed from the ACPI spec. Call, write or send carrier pigeons, just let us know.”
There is a discussion on ACPI’s _DSD and Device Properties. A new dsd@acpica.org mailing list has been setup to help. A new repo of information — on how to submit, approve, and use device properties in a community approved manner:
