Wonder what you thought of this patch to avoid Aliases in
AcpiWalkNamespace()?

>Description:
Some vendors (in my case, Asus) like to create aliases for node names
in the DSDT table:
-----
Scope (_PR)
{
Processor (P001, 0x01, 0x00000810, 0x06) {}
Alias (P001, CPU1)
Processor (P002, 0x02, 0x00000000, 0x00) {}
Alias (P002, CPU2)
Processor (P003, 0x03, 0x00000000, 0x00) {}
Alias (P003, CPU3)
Processor (P004, 0x04, 0x00000000, 0x00) {}
Alias (P004, CPU4)
}
-----
Another example (from Asus system too) is presented in the patch below.
Since AcpiWalkNamespace treats CPUX as the real Processor objects, the
probe order for acpi(4) bus children will be P001, CPU1, P002, CPU2,
P003, CPU3, P004, CPU4. This is very bad, because half of processors
are attached twice and half -- aren't attached at all. Moreover, est
(Enhanced SpeedStep cpufreq driver) isn't able to get _PSS for CPUX, so
P-states will be missing for half of processors.
>How-To-Repeat:
Insert Alias() instruction to your custom DSDT and try to use it,
enabling debug that will show what ACPI nodes are attached to cpuX
device nodes.
>Fix:
The following patch adds ACPI namespace walking procedure that skips
nodes that are results of the Alias() operator invocation. This new
method is used for probing of acpi(4) bus members.
The patch works on two machines of mine that have these annoying Alias()
calls in the _PR namespace.
I had tried this patch both on 7.x and 8-CURRENT.

...and use this function to probe acpi(4) children.
The rationale is very simple: some BIOS vendors, in my case it was
Asus, like to create aliased nodes in the namespaces that will be
walked by the acpi bus method that attaches children to the bus.
In my particular case, the problem lied in the Processor objects:
-----
Scope (_PR)
{
Processor (P001, 0x01, 0x00000810, 0x06) {}
Alias (P001, CPU1)
}
Scope (_PR)
{
Processor (P002, 0x02, 0x00000810, 0x06) {}
Alias (P002, CPU2)
}
-----
The thing is that the simple walk routine treated CPU1 and CPU2 as real
processors and order of attachment was P001, CPU1, P002, CPU2. Thus,
the second CPU was never attached, first was attached twice and est
(Enhanced SpeedStep cpufreq(4) driver) was failing to get _PSS
(processor P-states) from the CPU1.
I greatly doubt that some real devices will be ever created as aliases,
since they should be real objects and not modified copies of other
device instances. And since ASL Alias() semantics is to provide
pseudonym, this modification should be "The Good Thing (tm)".
