[PATCH rtw-next v2] wifi: rtw89: acpi: check for _DSM function support before evaluating it
From: Rosen Penev
Date: Tue Nov 03 2026 - 16:56:16 EST
When the WiFi device has no ACPI companion, or the firmware does not
implement a given rtw89 _DSM function, rtw89_acpi_evaluate_dsm() calls
acpi_evaluate_dsm() anyway. ACPI core then warns on every probe:
ACPI: \: failed to evaluate _DSM e8c3a8d2-694b-004f-82bd-fe8607803aa7 rev:0 func:10 (0x1001)
ACPI: \: failed to evaluate _DSM e8c3a8d2-694b-004f-82bd-fe8607803aa7 rev:0 func:6 (0x1001)
Here the handle is NULL, and acpi_evaluate_object() returns
AE_BAD_PARAMETER. All callers already treat failure as "no policy
provided by the platform", so this is only noise.
Bail out early when there is no ACPI handle, as acpi_check_dsm() would
otherwise hit the same warning while querying function 0. Then use
acpi_check_dsm() so that functions the firmware does not advertise fail
quietly at debug level, as rtw89_acpi_evaluate_method() already does.
Seen on an RTL8852BE in a desktop PCIe slot.
