A library to parse ACPI tables and AML, written in pure Rust. Designed to be easy to use from Rust bootloaders and kernels. The library is split into two crates:
acpiparses the static tables (useful but not feature-complete)amlparses the AML tables (can be useful, far from feature-complete)
There is also the acpi-dumper utility to easily dump a platform's ACPI tables (this currently only works on
Linux).
Contributions are more than welcome! You can:
- Write code - the ACPI spec is huge and there are bound to be things we don't support yet!
- Improve our documentation!
- Use the crates within your kernel and file bug reports and feature requests!
- Dump the ACPI tables of hardware you have access to and add them to our test suite!
