IASL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual IASL(8) NAME
iasl -- Intel ASL compiler and disassembler (iASL) SYNOPSIS
iasl [options] <input file> DESCRIPTION
The iasl is a fully-featured compiler for the ACPI Source Language (ASL). It translates ASL to ACPI Machine Language (AML), but iasl can also act as a disassembler, translating AML to ASL. OPTIONS
Global -@ file Specify command file. -I dir Specify additional include directory. General Output -p prefix Specify a path or filename prefix for all output files. -va Disable all errors and warnings in the summary. -vi Use less verbose errors and warnings. -vo Enable optimization comments. -vr Disable remarks. -vs Disable signon. -w 1 | 2 | 3 Set warning reporting level. AML Output Files -s a | c Create AML in assembler (*.asm) or C (*.c) source file. -i a | c Create assembler (*.inc) or C (*.h) include file. -t a | c Create AML in assembler or C hex table (*.hex). AML Code Generation -oa Disable all optimizations (compatibility mode). -of Disable constant folding. -oi Disable integer optimization to operation codes. -on Disable named reference string optimization. -r revision Override table header revision (1-255). Listings -l Create mixed, ASL and AML, listing file (*.lst). -ln Create namespace file (*.nsp). -ls Create combined source file (*.src). AML Disassembler -d file Disassemble binary ACPI table to a file (*.dsl). -dc file Disassemble AML and immediately compile it. -e f1, f2 Include ACPI table(s) for external symbol resolution. -2 Emit ACPI 2.0 compatible ASL code. -g Get ACPI tables and write to files (*.dat). Help -h Display additional help and compiler debug options. -hc Display operators allowed in constant expressions. -hr Display ACPI reserved method names. SEE ALSO

IASL(1) General Commands Manual IASL(1) NAME
iasl - ACPI Source Language compiler/decompiler SYNOPSIS
iasl [<option>...] <input-file> ... DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the iasl command. The option list is taken from the iasl interactive help. iasl is an ASL compiler and decompiler. This command provides both the ability to translate one or more ASL source files to their corre- sponding AML binary files, and the ability to translate AML binary files back to readable ASL source. Much more detailed documentation may be found at http://www.acpica.org/documentation/. OPTIONS
