+- Update to version 20200717
+ ACPICA kernel-resident subsystem:
+ * Do not increment OperationRegion reference counts for field units. Recent
+ server firmware has revealed that this reference count can overflow on
+ large servers that declare many field units (thousands) under the same
+ OperationRegion. This occurs because each field unit declaration will
add
+ a reference count to the source OperationRegion. This release solves
the
+ reference count overflow for OperationRegion objects by preventing
+ fieldUnits from incrementing their parent OperationRegion's reference
+ count.
+ * Replaced one-element arrays with flexible-arrays, which were introduced
+ in C99.
+ * Restored the readme file containing the directions for generation of
+ ACPICA from source on MSVC 2017. Updated the file for MSVC 2017. File is
+ located at: generate/msvc2017/readme.txt
+ iASL Compiler/Disassembler and ACPICA tools:
+ * iASL: Fixed a regression found in version 20200214. Prevent iASL from
+ emitting an extra byte of garbage data when control methods declared a
+ single parameter type without using braces. This extra byte is known to
+ cause a blue screen on the Windows AML interpreter.
+ * iASL: Made a change to allow external declarations to specify the type of
+ a named object even when some name segments are not defined. This change
+ allows the following ASL code to compile
+ (When DEV0 is not defined or not defined yet):
+ External (\_SB.DEV0.OBJ1, IntObj)
+ External (\_SB.DEV0, DeviceObj)
+ * iASL: Fixed a problem where method names in "Alias ()" statement could be
+ misinterpreted. They are now interpreted correctly as method invocations.
+ * iASL: capture a method parameter count (Within the Method info segment,
+ as well as the argument node) when using parameter type lists.
