SBST table?

SBST table?

[Rich Townsend]

Hi all --

I read from the ACPI spec that systems with a Smart Battery component 
will have an SBST table definining various aspects of the component. How 
might I go about accessing this table -- I assume that I'll have to mess 
around with table.c, but beyond that does anyone have any direct 
suggestions or pointers to info?

cheers,

Rich

Use this interface:

ACPI_STATUS
AcpiGetFirmwareTable (
    ACPI_STRING             Signature,
    UINT32                  Instance,
    UINT32                  Flags,
    ACPI_TABLE_HEADER       **TablePointer)


ACPI CA does not look at this table because there is nothing it can do
with it.  The Smart Battery driver needs it, and that's what this
interface is for.

Bob
