Subject: New warning: PRMT not found
Date: Mon, 26 Jul 2021 09:42:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <64150c95-3f7d-d21f-d6fb-b9d478ed6798@molgen.mpg.de> (raw)

Dear Erik,


The new code added in commit cefc7ca462 (ACPI: PRM: implement 
OperationRegion handler for the PlatformRtMechanism subtype) causes 
Linux to log a warning on my desktop system Asus F2A85-M PRO.

     PRMT not found

The help text for the Kconfig option `ACPI_PRMT` suggests it’s mainly 
used for server systems, so the warning does not apply to a lot of 
systems. Therefore, in my opinion, the option should not be selected by 
default, or the warning be removed or demoted, and phrased in a way, 
that users can understand the consequences.


Kind regards,

Paul
