54 * This module validates predefined ACPI objects that appear in the namespace,
55 * at the time they are evaluated (via acpi_evaluate_object). The purpose of this
56 * validation is to detect problems with BIOS-exposed predefined ACPI objects
57 * before the results are returned to the ACPI-related drivers.
59 * There are several areas that are validated:
61 * 1) The number of input arguments as defined by the method/object in the
62 * ASL is validated against the ACPI specification.
63 * 2) The type of the return object (if any) is validated against the ACPI
64 * specification.
65 * 3) For returned package objects, the count of package elements is
66 * validated, as well as the type of each package element. Nested
67 * packages are supported.
69 * For any problems found, a warning message is issued.
