No handler for Region

No handler for Region

[Thorsten Zachmann]

Hello all,

I have a toshiba tecra s1. During the bootup I get some errors and the battery 
status is not working. The messages looks similar as described in

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=6752695

I run a 2.6.2-rc2 kernel with the acpi-20040116.diff.bz2 patch and the acpi 
initrd patch for setting my own dsdt. Since the update to 2.6.2-rc2 the 
errors for the dockingstation are gone. However there are still some "No 
handler for Region" errors during boot up as seen below:

<4>evregion-0251 [21] ev_address_space_dispa: No handler for Region [ECF2] 
(dfef1ea8) [EmbeddedControl]
<4> exfldio-0284 [20] ex_access_region      : Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no 
handler
<4> dswexec-0435 [13] ds_exec_end_op        : [Store]: Could not resolve 
operands, AE_NOT_EXIST
<4> psparse-1120: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.BAT0._STA] (Node 
dfef9ba8), AE_NOT_EXIST
<4>evregion-0251 [21] ev_address_space_dispa: No handler for Region [ECF2] 
(dfef1ea8) [EmbeddedControl]
<4> exfldio-0284 [20] ex_access_region      : Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no 
handler
<4> dswexec-0435 [13] ds_exec_end_op        : [Store]: Could not resolve 
operands, AE_NOT_EXIST
<4> psparse-1120: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.BAT1._STA] (Node 
dfef9428), AE_NOT_EXIST

The problem lies in the Store command of the _STA Methods of the batteries. If 
the store command is replacecd by 

Store (0x01, Local0) 

the functions work without errors messages. 

I have put the file files.tar.gz containing:
dsdt.dsl.org (the dsdt I use)
dmesg.txt 
dmidecode.txt
acpidmp.txt
interrupts.txt
lscpi.txt

which can be found at http://zagge.online.de/files.tar.gz .

If you need more information or if I should test something I'm more than 
willing to do so. Thanks for your help and your good job.

Thorsten

Hi Thorsten,

   I had similar issues with a Gaateway 200X. The problem is that the machine 
does not supply an ECDT. I was able to fix the problem by using the patch 
associated with bug 1690.

the bug - http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1690
the patch - http://bugme.osdl.org/attachment.cgi?id=1690&action=view

   It seems to have worked for a number of different systems with this issue, 
so perhaps it will help you, too.

   Greg

Thanks for pointing out. It help indeed. No all error messages during the boot 
are gone.
