54 * FUNCTION: acpi_ns_evaluate
56 * PARAMETERS: Info - Evaluation info block, contains:
57 * prefix_node - Prefix or Method/Object Node to execute
58 * Pathname - Name of method to execute, If NULL, the
59 * Node is the object to execute
60 * Parameters - List of parameters to pass to the method,
61 * terminated by NULL. Params itself may be
62 * NULL if no parameters are being passed.
63 * return_object - Where to put method's return value (if
64 * any). If NULL, no value is returned.
65 * parameter_type - Type of Parameter list
66 * return_object - Where to put method's return value (if
67 * any). If NULL, no value is returned.
68 * Flags - ACPI_IGNORE_RETURN_VALUE to delete return
70 * RETURN: Status
72 * DESCRIPTION: Execute a control method or return the current value of an
73 * ACPI namespace object.
75 * MUTEX: Locks interpreter
