13 Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) support for
14 Linux requires an ACPI-compliant platform (hardware/firmware),
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
24 are configured, ACPI is used.
25
26 The project home page for the Linux ACPI subsystem is here:
27 <https://01.org/linux-acpi>
28
29 Linux support for ACPI is based on Intel Corporation's ACPI
30 Component Architecture (ACPI CA). For more information on the
31 ACPI CA, see:
32 <http://acpica.org/>
33
34 ACPI is an open industry specification originally co-developed by
35 Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Microsoft, Phoenix, and Toshiba. Currently,
36 it is developed by the ACPI Specification Working Group (ASWG) under
37 the UEFI Forum and any UEFI member can join the ASWG and contribute
38 to the ACPI specification.
39 The specification is available at:
40 <http://www.acpi.info>

54 For backwards compatibility, this option allows

56 they have been replaced by functions in /sys.
57 The deprecated directories (and their replacements) include:
58 /proc/acpi/battery/* (/sys/class/power_supply/*)
59 /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/* (sys/class/power_supply/*)
60 This option has no effect on /proc/acpi/ directories
61 and functions, which do not yet exist in /sys

71 Say N to disable Embedded Controller /sys/kernel/debug interface
72
73 Be aware that using this interface can confuse your Embedded
74 Controller in a way that a normal reboot is not enough. You then
75 have to power off your system, and remove the laptop battery for
76 some seconds.
77 An Embedded Controller typically is available on laptops and reads
78 sensor values like battery state and temperature.
79 The kernel accesses the EC through ACPI parsed code provided by BIOS
80 tables. This option allows to access the EC directly without ACPI
81 code being involved.
82 Thus this option is a debug option that helps to write ACPI drivers
83 and can be used to identify ACPI code or EC firmware bugs.

375 Certain usages such as Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) require
376 more information about the error than what can be described in

378 additional information about the error in processor uncore
379 registers. Since the addresses and layout of these registers vary
380 widely from one processor to another, system software cannot
381 readily make use of them. To complicate matters further, some of
382 the additional error information cannot be constructed without
383 detailed knowledge about platform topology.

385 Enhanced MCA Logging allows firmware to provide additional error
386 information to system software, synchronous with MCE or CMCI. This
