Actually I do not see anything wrong with that _PSS except that ASL seems to have been passed through a mangler and it makes reading the code hard. _PSS is a method and it is evaluated as a method in acpi_perf, the method returns a package. I am not sure what exactly you meant when you said that powernow expects a static table. I do not see why the return value can not be dynamically constructed while _PSS is evaluated and why that would affect any of our code. -- Andriy Gapon
