Subject: Re: [PATCH] acpi: fix early DSDT dmi check warnings on ia64
Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2010 10:42:18 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.00.1004291036590.22770@sony> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1272505354.9950.16.camel@minggr.sh.intel.com>

x86 calls dmi_scan_machine() to initialize DMI
from setup_arch().

ia64 calls dmi_scan_machine() from core_initcall()

Maybe they should both call it from the same place?

Also, ia64 should not parse entries which are known
at compile-time to be x86 specific

thanks,
Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center
