Add the ACPI Operating System Capabilities Method and let the
operation system control everything.
Commit »AMD Fam14 DSDT: Add OSC method« (00a0e76b) [1] is used as
a template.
The Lenovo X60 [2] running the Parabola GNU/Linux distribution [3] is
used for testing.
Before that change:
$ dmesg | egrep -e OSC -e ASPM
[ 0.108036] pci_root PNP0A08:00: ACPI _OSC support notification failed, disabling PCIe ASPM
[ 0.108040] pci_root PNP0A08:00: Unable to request _OSC control (_OSC support mask: 0x08)
[ 0.118089] ACPI _OSC control for PCIe not granted, disabling ASPM
[ 16.874569] e1000e 0000:01:00.0: Disabling ASPM L0s L1
With that change:
$ dmesg | egrep -e OSC -e ASPM
[ 0.107962] pci_root PNP0A08:00: Requesting ACPI _OSC control (0x1d)
[ 0.108003] pci_root PNP0A08:00: ACPI _OSC control (0x1d) granted
[ 0.111052] pci 0000:01:00.0: disabling ASPM on pre-1.1 PCIe device. You can enable it with 'pcie_aspm=force'
[ 17.537970] e1000e 0000:01:00.0: Disabling ASPM L0s L1

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * gcc / g++ * make Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------ If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
