8 OS might use unless there's another way for the OS to find it [1, 2].
17 described via ACPI. The OS can discover them via the standard PCI
25 namespace [2]. The _CRS is like a generalized PCI BAR: the OS can read
27 a driver for the device [3]. That's important because it means an old OS
28 can work correctly even on a system with new devices unknown to the OS.
29 The new devices might not do anything, but the OS can at least make sure no
33 reserving address space. The static tables are for things the OS needs to
35 is defined, an old OS needs to operate correctly even though it ignores the
37 OS; a static table does not.
39 If the OS is expected to manage a non-discoverable device described via
40 ACPI, that device will have a specific _HID/_CID that tells the OS what
41 driver to bind to it, and the _CRS tells the OS and the driver where the
82 and (2) should not be assigned by the OS to something else.
89 the address space is device-specific. An ACPI OS learns the base address
107 The OS enumerates motherboard devices simply by reading through the
114 [_SRS]. The information is used by the Plug and Play OS (OSPM) to
