I can do it this way: In the global header actypes.h:
#ifndef ACPI_FALLTHROUGH #define ACPI_FALLTHROUGH #endif In the gcc-specific header (acgcc.h): #define ACPI_FALLTHROUGH __attribute__((__fallthrough__)) This would not be #defined in the MSVC-specific header (acmsvc.h) -- thus using the default (null) in actypes.h (The per-environment headers are always included first). (We do all macros in upper case, prefixed with "ACPI_") If you can update your patch to use ACPI_FALLTHROUGH, I can do the rest (above).

I believe this has nothing to do with linux and only to do with compiling acpica for other environments like Windows. From: https://acpica.org/ The ACPI Component Architecture (ACPICA) project provides an operating system (OS)-independent reference implementation of the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification (ACPI). It can be easily adapted to execute under any host OS.
