| |
ACPI 6.1, Table 5-133, updates NVDIMM Control Region Structure as follows. - Valid Fields, Manufacturing Location, and Manufacturing Date are added from reserved range. No change in the structure size. - IDs (SPD values) are stored as arrays of bytes (i.e. big-endian format). The spec clarifies that they need to be represented as arrays of bytes as well.
Patch 1 changes the NFIT driver to comply with ACPI 6.1. Patch 2 adds a new sysfs file "id" to show NVDIMM ID defined in ACPI 6.1.
The patch-set applies on linux-pm.git acpica.
