ACPI Error

Добрый день! Купил новый компьютер, установил Linux Mint 18.2. Во время загрузки в логе выдается следующее:

Пробовал задавать в параметрах ядра «noapic» и «acpi=off», как написано здесь.

После этого ошибки исчезли, но комп приходится вручную отключать.

Посоветуйте, что можно сделать? В чем причина?

Материнская плата: Asus Prime x370-Pro

Видеокарта старая: GeForce 9800 GT

Добавить loglevel=3 в параметры ядра

Добавить loglevel=3 в параметры ядра

Это же просто скроет часть лога. Или вы считаете, что ошибка не очень серьезная?

Пробовал задавать в параметрах ядра «noapic» и «acpi=off», как написано здесь.

Ампутация всей ноги в случае ушиба пальца?? — Отличное решение.

После этого ошибки исчезли, но комп приходится вручную отключать.

Как бы ты хотел acpi=off ты именно его и получил да.

Не использовать железо с кривыми BIOS-ами. Или взять и таки исправить свой кривой dsdt.

Кроме кривой таблицы dsdt в твоём BIOS-е? Бури на марсе, зеленые человечки.

Не использовать железо с кривыми BIOS-ами. Или взять и таки исправить свой кривой dsdt.

есть более конструктивные советы?

Я не работал ранее с acpi и смутно представляю как она работает. Может в БИОСе что-то настроить нужно?

Может в БИОСе что-то настроить нужно?

Ключевые слова для гугления я тебе уже дал. Успехов.

Забей, это вариант нормы.

Попробуй обновить БИОС. Возможно у тебя стоит старый БИОС в котором ACPI кривой. Если обновлений нет, больше не покупать от этого производителя

Могу спросить тебя — загружается Linux Mint с GRUB? Почему не с systemd-boot?

Не делай так больше — это плохо и девочкам ты не понравишься.

Вот, собственно и причина ошибок — не твоих, тех к которым тебя принудили.

Перекомпилируй кернел и подружи его с UEFI/systemd — всё взлетит у тебя. Тебе — понравиться играть и щёлкать по фоткам на правильно сконфигурированной OS.

ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer].

Post by p.giaquinto » 2020/02/16 10:10:55

Hi, this is my first Centos installation.
I like it very much, but on my ThinkPad T440 I have some ACPI errors on startup:
— ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer].
— ACPI Exception: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving.
— ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed _PR.CPU0._PDC, AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE.
It should be a BIOS bug and I found a workaround here:
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/4-14-4-15-a . mobo/40452

WORKAROUND:
Edit /etc/default/grub and add in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line AFTER quiet word these: vga=current loglevel=3 rd.systemd.show_status=auto rd.udev.log_priority=3
Next update grub : sudo update-grub.
Last thing is creating SYSCTL rule:
sudo bash -c «echo ‘kernel.printk = 3 3 3 3’ > /etc/sysctl.d/20-quiet-printk.conf’»
and reboot. This will just HIDE error msgs during boot, still exists in dmesg results.

Can I use it with CentOS
Please help me

Re: ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer].

You could do something similar but the real solution is to look for updated BIOS firmware as all those ACPI tables are created by it before CentOS starts. Or just ignore them.

So the «similar» bit is that we don’t ship an `update-grub`, ours is grub2-mkconfig and needs to be told where the grub.cfg file resides. See man grub2-mkconfig.

But all of that is just covering up the errors so BIOS update would be far better.

ACPI error on bootup [SOLVED]

ACPI error on bootup [SOLVED]

Post by PayloadMax » Mon Apr 12, 2021 4:59 am

Hello,
I use Mint since version 9 as my everyday desktop. Since updating to Mint 20.x i noticed boot up errors. They flash on the screen but just to short to read them. The errors do not seem to have an influence on the further workings of Mint but. beside these errors i noticed my headphone jack / plug also does not work any more. Is there a relation. I searched everything related to sound, did every test i could fine and all looks well but there is no sound in the headphone (checked, headphone not broken). This might be unrelated to the errors, i don’t know. It started however as soon as these ACPI errors showed up.

I learned that using dmesh the errors as related to something called ACPI:

[ 0.199268] ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] (____ptrval____) (20190816/exresop-66)
[ 0.199285] fbcon: Taking over console
[ 0.199288] ACPI Error: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for [Store] (20190816/dswexec-431)
[ 0.199303] No Local Variables are initialized for Method [_PDC]
[ 0.199305] Initialized Arguments for Method [_PDC]: (1 arguments defined for method invocation)
[ 0.199306] Arg0: (____ptrval____) Buffer(12) 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00
[ 0.199314] ACPI Error: Aborting method _PR.CPU0._PDC due to previous error (AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE) (20190816/psparse-529)[/b]
[ 0.199918] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load:

So above shows 3 errors with ACPI. I then start searching for these errors on-line and they seem to have a relation to Ubuntu but there the errors
show up as «solved». Beside that, for me it is impossible to understand the explanations that are given about these errors. I am just a normal everyday desktop user and the answers are for specialists.

My system is an ASUS X200CA (netbook) that has an I3- 3217U processor and 4 Gb DDR(2) and a 256Gb SSD. I use the latest version of Mint 20.1 and update it first thing as soon as the system starts (using apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade).

So here are my questions:

— What do the errors mean and is there a (simple) way to get rid of them (without recompiling stuff)?
— Is there any relation with the the headphone plug not working? (and if so, is there a solution)

Please keep it simple
Max

Actually, they started when you updated to Mint 20. I am not aware of any relation between the errors and sound issues. Lots of people have run into sound issues when moving to LM20. You will find many threads in the ‘Sound, Multimedia, & Codecs’ section of the forum on the topic.

The ACPI errors usually can only be resolved by BIOS/UEFI updates and even those might not work. Not all manufacturers write their BIOS/UEFI to the standards which Linux is expecting to see. Linux lets you know that with the messages, but there is not a way to «fix» the error from the Linux side.

ACPI errors on boot after update to kernel 4.11.2-1

I updated the linux package to 4.11.2.-1 from 4.10.13-1 (havent updated for a while, been very busy lately), rebooted, but archlinux never started.
It drops down to a tty, where my keyeboard doesn’t work (keyboard hook is at the end of my modules list). I get theese
errors.
If I remove the resume kernel parameter the results are similar, the lvm devices are not found.
The initramfs image has a 2 in its name, so the Korora install can use the one without a number, apart from that «2» my mkinitcpio configs are untouched.
I have a lenovo G585 laptop.
I’m dualbooting an old Korora install (4.6.something kernel), which starts, so it’s probably not a hardware issue.

I have my bachelors thesis due in less then a week, so I don’t have a lot of time to investigate it right now.
I’ll try downgrading the kernel (linux, linux-headers, acpi_cal) and if that works not touch anything till the thesis is handed in.

Edit: downgrading acpi_call as the latest version was dependent on the latest linux, sounds realted any way

Downgrading seems to have fixed the issue.

Re: ACPI errors on boot after update to kernel 4.11.2-1

I also got ACPI errors after upgrading to 4.11.2-1-ARCH from 4.9.28-1-lts. Mine are different though and the system continues to boot successfully:

minimal test case that also exhibits thesame acpi error

I've attached a test case here. What happened was that this passed through the compiler due to a method being declared as an external of an unknown type.

Method (_PDC, 1, NotSerialized)  // _PDC: Processor Driver Capabilities
{
    _PR.CPU0._PPC = CPPC /* _PR_.CPPC */
    Local0 = CPDC (Arg0)
    GCAP (Local0)
    Return (Local0)
}

The issue with this _PDC method is the assignment on the first line. _PPC is declared as an external as an unknown type and CPPC is an integer. When all names are loaded in AML namespace, it is known that _PPC is a method that returns a reference...

Could you post the dmesg for the 4.9 kernel? This can tell us the ACPICA version number.

@Erik Schmauss I found bug report about >> AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE << in RedHat bug tracker about Linux 4.11.3 (ACPI Core Revision: 20170119) reported 2017-06-06:

See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1459317
--------------------------------------------------------
Gianfranco Cecconi 2017-06-06 15:08:45 EDT

Description of problem:

Since kernel 4.11.3-200 I am getting errors at boot just after grub as described below.

How reproducible:

Fully reproducible at every boot.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just boot Fedora

Actual results:

After selecting the latest kernel on Grub, I get the following:

[some timestamp] ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] ffff9915c5701168 (20170119/exresop-103)
[some timestamp] ACPI Exception: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for [OpcodeName unavailable] (20170119/dswexec-461)
[some timestamp] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [_PR.CPU0._PDC] (Mode ffff9915c90eb780), AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE (20170119/psparse-543)

Expected results:

I'd expect no errors nor warnings.

Additional info:

I am also experiencing this issue at the same stage in the boot process https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1435837 but it is precedent and has been around since March 2017 without resolution. My guess is that the two issues are not related.

Thanks for all of the information. Here's what's going on: we have confirmed that executing ASL/AML code like the one I've listed in comment #1 results in an error on windows. Also, we have confirmed that we were allowing this code to execute without error in older versions (20160831) but we have made this into an error in more recent versions to match the behavior on windows. Basically, this is a firmware issue...

Erik Kaneda



2018-02-15 20:42:31 UTC

So from our perspective, the two possible next steps are to contact the firmware vendor to correct the firmware or check to see if there are updates for this firmware

According to intel kernel developer your hardware is buggy unless is not from intel and latest model with latest acpi compiler. So long as intel is developing the kernel, many bugs are not fixed. Disabling acpi errors is the solution:

WORKAROUND
Edit /etc/default/grub and add in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line AFTER quiet word these: 

vga=current loglevel=3 rd.systemd.show_status=auto rd.udev.log_priority=3

Next update grub : sudo update-grub.

Last thing is creating SYSCTL rule:

sudo bash -c "echo ‘kernel.printk = 3 3 3 3’ > /etc/sysctl.d/20-quiet-printk.conf’"

and reboot. This will just HIDE error msgs during boot, still exists in dmesg results.

Closing, this is a firmware bug. Please contact your firmware vendor for a fix.

I boot Ubuntu. I was browsing on Firefox in Ubuntu and all of a sudden I got some error message, so I tried to reboot. Now when I try to reboot I get this message:

ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] ...
ACPI Exception: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, while resolving operands for [Store] (20170831/dswexec-461)

At the black screen where the boot process has stopped press the keyboard combination Ctrl+Alt+F3 to access a text-only virtual console.

To login from a virtual console:

  1. At the login: prompt type your username and press Enter.

  2. At the Password: prompt type your user password and press Enter.

Check that the necessary proprietary graphics driver is installed. Run the following commands:

sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
sudo reboot   

The autoinstall command of ubuntu-drivers installs drivers that are appropriate for automatic installation including their dependencies.

If you’re unable to access a virtual console, the next logical step is to check if it is caused by a hardware issue by booting to a Linux session from any Linux live USB. If that doesn’t work either temporarily either remove or swap your computer’s discrete graphics card if your computer has one to test if the graphics card is broken and needs to be replaced.

ACPI error on bootup [SOLVED]

Hello,
I use Mint since version 9 as my everyday desktop. Since updating to Mint 20.x i noticed boot up errors. They flash on the screen but just to short to read them. The errors do not seem to have an influence on the further workings of Mint but… beside these errors i noticed my headphone jack / plug also does not work any more. Is there a relation. I searched everything related to sound, did every test i could fine and all looks well but there is no sound in the headphone (checked, headphone not broken). This might be unrelated to the errors, i don’t know. It started however as soon as these ACPI errors showed up.

I learned that using dmesh the errors as related to something called ACPI:

[ 0.199268] ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] (____ptrval____) (20190816/exresop-66)
[ 0.199285] fbcon: Taking over console
[ 0.199288] ACPI Error: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for [Store] (20190816/dswexec-431)
[ 0.199303] No Local Variables are initialized for Method [_PDC]
[ 0.199305] Initialized Arguments for Method [_PDC]: (1 arguments defined for method invocation)
[ 0.199306] Arg0: (____ptrval____) <Obj> Buffer(12) 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00
[ 0.199314] ACPI Error: Aborting method _PR.CPU0._PDC due to previous error (AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE) (20190816/psparse-529)[/b]
[ 0.199918] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load:

So above shows 3 errors with ACPI. I then start searching for these errors on-line and they seem to have a relation to Ubuntu but there the errors
show up as «solved». Beside that, for me it is impossible to understand the explanations that are given about these errors. I am just a normal everyday desktop user and the answers are for specialists.

My system is an ASUS X200CA (netbook) that has an I3- 3217U processor and 4 Gb DDR(2) and a 256Gb SSD. I use the latest version of Mint 20.1 and update it first thing as soon as the system starts (using apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade).

So here are my questions:

— What do the errors mean and is there a (simple) way to get rid of them (without recompiling stuff)?
— Is there any relation with the the headphone plug not working? (and if so, is there a solution)

Please keep it simple

Actually, they started when you updated to Mint 20. I am not aware of any relation between the errors and sound issues. Lots of people have run into sound issues when moving to LM20. You will find many threads in the ‘Sound, Multimedia, & Codecs’ section of the forum on the topic.

The ACPI errors usually can only be resolved by BIOS/UEFI updates and even those might not work. Not all manufacturers write their BIOS/UEFI to the standards which Linux is expecting to see. Linux lets you know that with the messages, but there is not a way to «fix» the error from the Linux side.

Is your computer’s BIOS/UEFI updated? Please give us information about your install by entering this command in a terminal: inxi -Fxxxrz
Click </> from the mini toolbar above the textbox where you type your reply and then place your cursor between the code markers and paste the results of the command between the code markers [code]Results[/code]. This will let us know how Mint sees your hardware.

In addition, this is an older laptop and there is no newer firmware than the 205 version i am using (from 2017 i think). The problem is, its a realy nice small and light netbook style computer that easily travels. Should this be the origin of the error then i can live with it. Did a lot of searching on the sound problem but never got it fixed. Will do a new sweep for solutions. THANK you for your time.

Those ACPI errors are not ones I would expect would cause issues.

The audio driver is a very common one used, so I would expect a solution is floating around somewhere. If you do not find a thread about it in the Sound section or in the Newbie section (I saw some sound questions asked there), then create a new thread for that issue in the Sound section of the forum.

Audio:
Device-1: Intel 7 Series/C216 Family High Definition Audio vendor: ASUSTeK driver: snd_hda_intel
v: kernel bus ID: 00:1b.0 chip ID: 8086:1e20
Sound Server: ALSA v: k5.4.0-71-generic

I did find this thread No sound. please help. Maybe something mentioned in it would help.

I would suggest that if you decide to make changes to code based on something you have read, you make a Timeshift snapshot before making the changes. That way, if they do not work out, you can easily undo the change.

Just an FYI, your install is focal-based and not bionic. I know others have successfully installed Wine on LM20, so you might run into issues with the bionic version.

Hello SMG,

Thank you for your explanation. I followed the thread about «no sound» but its not that i have no sound, just no sound on the headphone jack. I am not sure if this is a LM problem so will download a live distro in a minute an test if it is LM related. If so i will make new thread as you suggested.

ACPI error: i assume you are right about the BIOS being not in line with the EFI standard LM is using. LM works fine so i will let is be as is.

THANK YOU!!!

I followed the thread about «no sound» but its not that i have no sound, just no sound on the headphone jack.

I have seen variations where people are getting sound through one means, but not the other, so there may be threads about that as well. Seems like with each kernel update there are ALSA changes and some people lose some part of their sound and new thread pops up asking for help.

Here’s one with no headphone output, but I do not know if that issue is Dell specific. Set default audio device in preferences >> sound >> input.

If that does not help, just create a new thread and list what you’ve tried as well as your inxi output in the first post.

Hi SMG,

I read the thread you gave me and its the solution to my headphone problem:

So I went to preferences >> sound, lanched that and then went to the input tab and for my auxiliary (headphone) output to work the «Internal Microphone Built in audio» device must be selected.
[unquote]

For privacy reasons i had the internal microphone volume set to 0 (zero). As soon as i cranked up the internal microphone volume i got sound out of
the headphones! Must be a bug(?) or just the cheap sound card that this PC has. It survives a reboot so no startupscript (as described in the thread) needed
in my case.

Problem solved and BIG THANX (again)

Good to hear you can hear (through your headphones). :mrgreen:

If you go to your first post in this thread and edit the title to add [SOLVED] then others will know you no longer need help on the issues in this thread.

Hi SMG,

Done assuming the ACPI error is due to the older BIOS. Just so you know, i found the X200CA does not have an internal microphone so the headphone-out plug is also the microphone-in plug. Feeling stupid now..

Might help others so again thanx.

I updated the linux package to 4.11.2.-1 from 4.10.13-1 (havent updated for a while, been very busy lately), rebooted, but archlinux never started.
It drops down to a tty, where my keyeboard doesn’t work (keyboard hook is at the end of my modules list). I get theese
errors.
If I remove the resume kernel parameter the results are similar, the lvm devices are not found.
The initramfs image has a 2 in its name, so the Korora install can use the one without a number, apart from that «2» my mkinitcpio configs are untouched.
I have a lenovo G585 laptop.
I’m dualbooting an old Korora install (4.6.something kernel), which starts, so it’s probably not a hardware issue.

I have my bachelors thesis due in less then a week, so I don’t have a lot of time to investigate it right now.
I’ll try downgrading the kernel (linux, linux-headers, acpi_cal) and if that works not touch anything till the thesis is handed in.

Edit: downgrading acpi_call as the latest version was dependent on the latest linux, sounds realted any way
