ACPIDUMP(1) General Commands Manual ACPIDUMP(1)NAME
acpidump - ACPI table dump utility
SYNOPSIS
acpidump [<option>...]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the acpidump command. The option list is taken from the interactive help.
The acpidump command extracts the ACPI tables currently in use from the running kernel in a form usable for later processing by the acpix-
tract command.
Invocation of acpidump without parameters will dump all available ACPI tables. Multiple mixed instances of the -a , -f , and -n parameters
can be used.
OPTIONS -b Dump tables in binary format (versus the default human-readable form)
-h | -?
Display this help message
-o <file>
Redirect output to a file. This file can be used later by acpixtract to examine the contents of the ACPI tables.
-s Print table summaries only.
-v Print the version of this utility.
-z Verbose mode.
-a <address>
Get a table from a physical address (must be superuser and you must be careful which address you use -- dmesg will typically report
the addresses for the various tables).
-f <binary-file>
Get a table from a binary file (see the -b option).
-n <signature>
Get a table via it's name or signature (e.g., MADT or SSDT).

ACPIHELP(1) General Commands Manual ACPIHELP(1)NAME
acpihelp - ACPI help utility
SYNOPSIS
acpihelp <option>... [<name-prefix>|<hex-value>]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the acpihelp command. The option list is taken from the acpihelp interactive help.
acpihelp provides descriptive text for AML and ASL keywords, methods, and opcodes.
Much more detailed documentation may be found at http://www.acpica.org/documentation/.
If neither a <name-prefix> or a <hex-value> is provided, acpihelp will do the logical equivalent of a "display all."
A default search (that is, a search with no options) and a <name-prefix> can mean two different things: (1) if <name-prefix> does not start
with an underscore, find ASL operator names, or (2) if <name-prefix> does start with an underscore, find ASL predefined method names.
OPTIONS
ACPI Names and Symbols
-k [<name-prefix>]
Find/Display ASL non-operator keyword(s)
-m [<name-prefix>]
Find/Display AML opcode name(s)
-p [<name-prefix>]
Find/Display ASL predefined method name(s)
-s [<name-prefix>]
Find/Display ASL operator name(s)
ACPI Values
-e [<hex-value>]
Decode ACPICA exception code
-i Display known ACPI Device IDs (_HID)
-i [<hex-value>]
Decode hex AML opcode

Hi all,
I've been assigned the task of modifying a script which reads in names of tables from a list file, exports a 30 days worth of data from these tables, then deletes the table. The list file will now contain a table name and a number next to it indicating how many days to archive. I need... (1 Reply)
Hi all,
Please see my requirement and post me asap.
Spool all the tables names into a file . Take each table name and check if it is present in any of the scripts in a directory using grep -il command. The script has to loop through the tables list and take each table and find it's presence... (7 Replies)
