iasl 20130328-64 warning

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I compiled the latest version of iasl with AcpicaTool

I try to decompile the raw DSDT generated with Ubuntu:

 

./iasl -d dsdt.aml

 

and I get this (only with the new iasl 20130328-64 version!)

 

Intel ACPI Component Architecture

iASL Warning: There were 2 external control methods found during

disassembly, but additional ACPI tables to resolve these externals

were not specified. The resulting disassembler output file may not

compile because the disassembler did not know how many arguments

to assign to these methods. To specify the tables needed to resolve

external control method references, use the one of the following

example iASL invocations:

iasl -e -d

iasl -e -d

Zoltans-MacBook-Pro:desktop zoltankr$

 

It gives me the dsdt.dsl file, but the weird thing is that iasl insert that warning into the header:

Is there any way to skip that warning/check or the only fix is to move back to older iasl? No problems with the older 20130117-64.
