Please note that iasl can't perform any of the functions of gendsdt
dumping the dsdt to a file, then iasl -d and iasl -tc will produce the same thing, but with some sort of optimizations. Disabling the optimizations, with -oa should produce exactly the same output as gendsdt, except for whitespace, the copyright header, and some dsdt header info (compiler, etc).
Sorry, my bad, I didn't know that. Then I vote to drop gendsdt and require use of iasl (plus a sed script/whatever to modify the headers) instead. We need iasl anyway for the stuff Rudolf is working on.
You're entirely correct about genfadt vs iasl though, and now you've got me thinking that two utiliities is a better idea.
At last! I admit I was really stubborn, though you were nice enough to correct me where I was wrong. Thanks!
