Are there some potentially serious problems that I should be aware of if I totally disable the CONFIG_ACPI option on the X86_64 platform?

Hi, list

Are there some potentially serious problems that I should be aware of
if I totally disable the CONFIG_ACPI option on the X86_64 platform?

Would it do harm to the hardware?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Yes, your ACPI-based system will not boot.

It might, try it and see :)

good luck!!!

Hi, Greg KH
>Yes, your ACPI-based system will not boot.
Do you mean the OS will not boot or some of the Linux subsystems(i.e.
USB PCI etc) will not boot?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

These machines are still mostly IBM-PC compatible, so it is likely to
somehow work. You'll likely get worse power and thermal
management. Try it.

It's an industrial personal computer with an Intel processor.
What I am worried about is that it may damage the hardware.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best Regards.

I'd simply try it. Risk is really quite low...

If in doubt, you could ask vendor.

But you will not get definitive answers on the mailing list...

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question.

Do you mean disabling the CONFIG_ACPI option is mostly on IBM-PC
compatible platforms?

Do you think disabling the CONFIG_ACPI may cause the OS failing to boot
up?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
