Hi all, When attempting to build a newer release of ACPICA, it seems some documentation is missing, or some steps are missing. I have consulted the wiki whether updating instructions exist. The copyright header in sys/contrib/dev/acpica/common/acfileio.c hints I need the file acpica-unix-*.tar.gz What I ran to update ACPICA so far is: cd /tmp fetch https://downloadmirror.intel.com/783534/acpica-unix-20230628.tar.gz cd /usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/acpica/ ./acpica_prep.sh /tmp/acpica-unix-20230628.tar.gz rsync -aPv acpi_ca_destination/* . make -C /usr/src buildworld The 'buildworld' target stops with the following message: Building /usr/obj/path/to/git.freebsd.org/src/amd64.amd64/usr.sbin/acpi/acpidb/dsfield.o /path/to/dev/git.freebsd.org/src/sys/contrib/dev/acpica/components/dispatcher/dsfield.c:161:10: fatal error: 'aecommon.h' file not found 161 | #include "aecommon.h" | ^~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 error generated. *** Error code 1 Stop. make[5]: stopped in /path/to/dev/git.freebsd.org/src/usr.sbin/acpi/acpidb Now, when I repeat running acpica_prep.sh with acpica-unix-20221020.tar_0.gz [1] to re-integrate the release of ACPICA which is currently in the tree, buildworld stops with the same message as well.
