- *
- * This module validates predefined ACPI objects that appear in the namespace,
- * at the time they are evaluated (via acpi_evaluate_object). The purpose of this
- * validation is to detect problems with BIOS-exposed predefined ACPI objects
- * before the results are returned to the ACPI-related drivers.
- *
- * There are several areas that are validated:
- *
- * 1) The number of input arguments as defined by the method/object in the
- * ASL is validated against the ACPI specification.
- * 2) The type of the return object (if any) is validated against the ACPI
- * specification.
- * 3) For returned package objects, the count of package elements is
- * validated, as well as the type of each package element. Nested
- * packages are supported.
- *
- * For any problems found, a warning message is issued.
