checking. 63.It Fl d Ar file1 Op Ar file2 64Disassemble or decode binary ACPI tables to file (*.dsl). 65The 66.Ar file2 67is optional, file type is automatically detected. 68.It Fl D Ar symbol 69Define symbol for preprocessor use. 70.It Fl da Ar file ... 71Disassemble multiple tables from single namespace. 72.It Fl db 73Do not translate Buffers to Resource Templates. 74.It Fl dc Ar file ... 75Disassemble AML and immediately compile it. 76Obtain the DSDT from the current system if no input file has it. 77.It Fl df 78Force the disassembler to assume the table contains valid AML. 79.It Fl dl 80Emit legacy ASL code only (no C-style operators). 81.It Fl dv 82Set verbose option. 83.It Fl e Ar file ... 84Include ACPI table(s) for external symbol resolution. 85.It Fl f 86Ignore errors, force creation of AML output file(s). 87.It Fl fe Ar file 88Specify external symbol declaration file. 89.It Fl G 90Compile custom table that contains generic operators. 91.It Fl h 92Display the help message. 93.It Fl hc 94Display operators allowed in constant expressions. 95.It Fl hd 96Info for obtaining and disassembling binary ACPI tables. 97.It Fl hf 98Display help for output filename generation. 99.It Fl hr 100Display ACPI reserved method names. 101.It Fl ht 102Display currently supported ACPI table names. 103.It Fl I Ar directory 104Specify additional include directory. 105.It Fl
