All other acpica headers are "private" and should not be included by acpica users. One new file, accommon.h is used to include the commonly used private headers for acpica code generation. Future plans are to move all private headers to a new subdirectory.

ACPICA: Add Buffer->String conversion for predefined methods 2008-12-30T03:38:38+00:00 Bob Moore robert.moore@intel.com 2008-11-14T00:44:39+00:00 a647b5c34047560d7efe7e53e756c6692ce67dc7 For predefined methods (such as _BIF), add automatic conversion for objects that are required to be a String, but a Buffer was found instead. This can happen when reading string battery data from an operation region, because it used to be difficult to convert the data from buffer to string from within the ASL.
