1da177e4 13 Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) support for
1c48aa36 14 Linux requires an ACPI-compliant platform (hardware/firmware),
1da177e4
LT
15 and assumes the presence of OS-directed configuration and power
16 management (OSPM) software. This option will enlarge your
17 kernel by about 70K.
18
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
1c48aa36 24 are configured, ACPI is used.

82 Be aware that using this interface can confuse your Embedded

86 An Embedded Controller typically is available on laptops and reads

88 The kernel accesses the EC through ACPI parsed code provided by BIOS
89 tables. This option allows to access the EC directly without ACPI
