ACPIEXEC(1) General Commands Manual ACPIEXEC(1)NAME
acpiexec - ACPI AML execution and debug utility
SYNOPSIS
acpiexec [<option>...] <aml-file> ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the acpiexec command. The option list is taken from the acpiexec interactive help.
acpiexec provides a simulated execution environment for AML code so that it can be more easily tested and debugged.
Much more detailed documentation may be found at http://www.acpica.org/documentation/.

-di Disable execution of _STA/_INI methods during init
-do Disable Operation Region address simulation
-dr Disable repair of method return values
-dt Disable allocation tracking (performance)
-ef Enable display of final memory statistics
-ei Enable additional tests for ACPICA interfaces
-em Enable interpreter Serialized mode

iasl - ACPI Source Language compiler/decompiler
SYNOPSIS
iasl [<option>...] <input-file> ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the iasl command. The option list is taken from the iasl interactive help.
iasl is an ASL compiler and decompiler. This command provides both the ability to translate one or more ASL source files to their corre-
sponding AML binary files, and the ability to translate AML binary files back to readable ASL source.
Much more detailed documentation may be found at http://www.acpica.org/documentation/.
