I'm seeing a kernel panic in the ACPI CA interpreter under Solaris, but I don't believe it is Solaris-specific. The panic reliably happens when evaluating a method which returns a package which contains a named object as an element. method. Here's the panic stack trace, with excess stuff trimmed: ffffff00025c2e90 unix:die+f4 () ffffff00025c2fc0 unix:trap+38e () ffffff00025c2fd0 unix:cmntrap+1d0 () ffffff00025c30e0 acpica:AcpiNsGetParentNode+2b () ffffff00025c3110 acpica:AcpiNsGetPathnameLength+38 () ffffff00025c3160 acpica:AcpiUtGetSimpleObjectSize+8f () ffffff00025c31b0 acpica:AcpiUtGetElementLength+32 () ffffff00025c3230 acpica:AcpiUtWalkPackageTree+aa () ffffff00025c3290 acpica:AcpiUtGetPackageObjectSize+6d () ffffff00025c32d0 acpica:AcpiUtGetObjectSize+3d () ffffff00025c3350 acpica:AcpiEvaluateObject+1d4 () ffffff00025c33c0 acpica:AcpiEvaluateObjectTyped+72 () AcpiNsGetParentNode() panics when it attempts to follow a namespace node peer link. The node, however, is uninitialized. The case which causes this is reproduced reliably by this simplified test case: Method(DANA, 0, NotSerialized) { Name (DOM1, 0x02) Return(Package() { Package() { 0x00, 0x01, DOM1, 0x03, 0x04 } } ) } Simply evaluating DANA causes the panic when AcpiUtGetElementLength() tries to handle DOM1 - it's apparently a "local reference" and the namespace node is apparently uninitialized. So AcpiNsGetParentNode() panics trying to find the parent when it attempts to access memory at 0xCACACACACACACACA. If I replace DOM1 in the package with 0x02, the panic goes away. Has anyone encountered this on FreeBSD? Thanks - Dana
