IASL 8 33.Os 34.Sh NAME 35.Nm iasl 36.Nd ACPI Source Language compiler, ACPI table compiler, and AML disassembler 37.Sh SYNOPSIS 38.Nm 39.Op Ar option ... 40.Op Ar file ... 41.Sh DESCRIPTION 42The following options are supported: 43.Bl -tag -width indent 44.It Fl @ Ar file 45Specify command file. 46.It Fl ar 47Enable reference typechecking. 48.It Fl bf 49Create debug file (full tree only) (*.txt). 50.It Fl bp Ar depth 51Prune ASL parse tree. 52.It Fl bs 53Create debug file (parse tree only) (*.txt). 54.It Fl bt Ar type 55Object type to be pruned from the parse tree. 56.It Fl cr 57Disable Resource Descriptor error checking. 58.It Fl d Ar file1 Op Ar file2 59Disassemble or decode binary ACPI tables to file (*.dsl). 60The 61.Ar file2 62is optional, file type is automatically detected. 63.It Fl D Ar symbol 64Define symbol for preprocessor use. 65.It Fl da Ar file ... 66Disassemble multiple tables from single namespace. 67.It Fl db 68Do not translate Buffers to Resource Templates. 69.It Fl dc Ar file ... 70Disassemble AML and immediately compile it. 71Obtain the DSDT from the current system if no input file has it. 72.It Fl df 73Force the disassembler to assume the table contains valid AML. 74.It Fl dl 75Emit legacy ASL code only (no C-style operators). 76.It Fl dv 77Set verbose option. 78.It Fl e Ar file ... 79Include ACPI table(s) for external symbol resolution. 80.It Fl f 81Ignore errors, force creation of AML output file(s). 82.It Fl fe Ar file 83Specify external symbol declaration file. 84.It Fl G 85Compile custom table that contains generic operators. 86.It Fl h 87Display the help message. 88.It Fl hc 89Display operators allowed in constant expressions. 90.It Fl hf 91Display help for output filename generation. 92.It Fl hr 93Display ACPI reserved method names. 94.It Fl ht 95Display currently supported ACPI table names. 96.It Fl I Ar directory 97Specify additional include directory. 98.It Fl ia 99Create include file in assembler (*.inc). 100.It Fl ic 101Create include file in C (*.h). 102.It Fl in 103When disassembling, ignore NoOp opcodes. 104When compiling, ignore NoOp operators. 105.It Fl l 106When compiling, create mixed listing file (ASL source and AML) (*.lst). 107When disassembling, disassemble to mixed ASL and AML code. 108.It Fl li 109Create preprocessed output file (*.i). 110.It Fl lm 111Create hardware summary map file (*.map). 112.It Fl ln 113Create namespace file (*.nsp). 114.It Fl ls 115Create combined source file (expanded includes) (*.src). 116.It Fl lx 117Create cross-reference file (*.xrf). 118.It Fl m Ar size 119Set internal line buffer size (in Kbytes). 120.It Fl n 121Parse only, no output generation. 122.It Fl oa 123Disable all optimizations (compatibility mode). 124.It Fl oc 125Display compile times and statistics. 126.It Fl of 127Disable constant folding. 128.It Fl oi 129Disable integer optimization to Zero/One/Ones. 130.It Fl on 131Disable named reference string optimization. 132.It Fl ot 133Disable typechecking. 134.It Fl P 135Preprocess only and create preprocessor output file (*.i). 136.It Fl p Ar prefix 137Specify path/filename prefix for all output files. 138.It Fl Pn 139Disable preprocessor. 140.It Fl r Ar revision 141Override table header Revision (1-255). 142.It Fl sa 143Create source file in assembler (*.asm). 144.It Fl sc 145Create source file in C (*.c). 146.It Fl so 147Create offset table in C (*.offset.h). 148.It Fl T Ar sig ... | ALL 149Create ACPI table template/example files. 150.It Fl T Ar count 151Emit DSDT and 152.Ar count 153SSDTs to same file. 154.It Fl ta 155Create hex AML table in assembler (*.hex). 156.It Fl tc 157Create hex AML table in C (*.hex). 158.It Fl ts 159Create hex AML table in ASL (*.hex). 160.It Fl v 161Display compiler version. 162.It Fl va 163Disable all errors/warnings/remarks. 164.It Fl ve 165Report only errors (ignore warnings and remarks). 166.It Fl vi 167Less verbose errors and warnings for use with IDEs. 168.It Fl vo 169Enable optimization comments. 170.It Fl vr 171Disable remarks. 172.It Fl vs 173Disable signon. 174.It Fl vt 175Create verbose template files (full disassembly). 176.It Fl vt 177Dump binary table data in hex format within output file. 178.It Fl vw Ar message_id 179Disable specific warning or remark. 180.It Fl w1 | Fl w2 | Fl w3 181Set warning reporting level. 182.It Fl we 183Report warnings as errors. 184.It Fl x Ar level 185Set debug level for trace output. 186.It Fl z 187Do not insert new compiler ID for DataTables. 188.El 189.Sh SEE ALSO 190.Xr acpi 4 , 191.Xr acpibin 8 , 192.Xr acpicall
