* Implemented a parser, abstract syntax tree, and basic infrastructure for the AML subsystem of the ACPI module. The entire AML grammar is parsed and placed into an abstract syntax tree, with one exception: method invocations, rather than parsing, defer the load until later on in the process, due to the way the grammar works.
Still to be done:
- Refactor the code: a lot of the parser is very repetitive, and could easily be refactored with the aid of macros. This would reduce the length and improve legibility, though not affect function.
- More rigorous testing of parser: the parser has, thus far, only been tested on the DSDT in QEMU. There may be bugs present that are hidden.
- Parse the SSDTs: the SSDTs should be parsed after the DSDT, and contain more AML bytecode to be treated as modifying the same namespace. Adding this would be simple, though not urgent.
- Transform the AST into a concrete executable tree: the CET is what will hold all information necessary to execute control methods and evaluate namespace objects. While this could be done in the AST, due to the way AML is laid out this would be very inefficient and require a lot of repetitive transformations every time something is to be executed. Therefore, perform the transformations upfront.
- Parse the deferred loads, and the method invocations contained within: Once the AST has been rendered into a CET, sufficient information will be present to parse method invocations and add those to the namespace.
- Bytecode interpreter: Once the CET has been finalized with method invocation parsing, it can then be called and executed.
- Control method executor: this should walk the namespace, locating the relevant control method, then calling the interpreter on it.
- Namespace enumerator: the executor shall use this to walk the namespace, and it should also be publicly accessible to allow outside code to determine what devices are present in the system.
- Memory accessor API: ACPI AML has a concept of memory access in certain device domains - for example, the PCI BAR registers. These are all device specific offsets, therefore device drivers, or more accurately bus drivers, should be capable of installing handlers to manage this memory access.
- CET concatenation: The DSDT and SSDTs all affect the same namespace, therefore concatenating the resulting trees should be possible.
- Type checking: some operations in AML are typed. This should be handled at tree transformation time or earlier, and could indeed done in the parse step with some modification to the parser. This is currently not the case.
