For example, objects created and installed in the namespace were not deleted. This caused all subsequent invocations of the method to return the AE_ALREADY_EXISTS exception. Implemented a mechanism to force a control method to "Serialized" execution if the method attempts to create namespace objects. (The root of the AE_ALREADY_EXISTS problem.) Implemented support for the predefined _OSI "internal" control method. Initial supported strings are "Linux", "Windows 2000", "Windows 2001", and "Windows 2001.1", and can be easily upgraded for new strings as necessary. This feature allows Linux to execute the fully tested, "Windows" code path through the ASL code Global Lock Support: Now allows multiple acquires and releases with any internal thread. Removed concept of "owning thread" for this special mutex. Fixed two functions that were inappropriately declaring large objects on the CPU stack: ps_parse_loop() and ns_evaluate_relative(). Reduces the stack usage during method execution considerably. Fixed a problem in the ACPI 2.0 FACS descriptor (actbl2.h) where the S4Bios_f field was incorrectly defined as UINT32 instead of UINT32_BIT. Fixed a problem where acpi_ev_gpe_detect() would fault if there were no GPEs defined on the machine. Implemented two runtime options: One to force all control method execution to "Serialized" to mimic Windows behavior, another to disable _OSI support if it causes problems on a given machine.
