Subject: [PATCH 0/3] ACPI 6.1 NFIT Compatibility
Date: Mon, 08 Feb 2016 10:30:53 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160208183052.27820.68922.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com> (raw)
The latest NFIT specification clarifies that a memory device will have a
control region table per function interface. Without the fix in [PATCH
1/3] Linux will miscount the number of DIMMs and fail to load the
driver. The fix is tagged for -stable on the expectation that ACPI 6.1
compatible systems will overlap current -stable development branches.
The latter two patches in the series are verification tests that can be
integrated for 4.6.
