---------------------------

What: /sys/firmware/acpi/namespace
When: 2.6.21
Why: The ACPI namespace is effectively the symbol list for
the BIOS. The device names are completely arbitrary
and have no place being exposed to user-space.

For those interested in the BIOS ACPI namespace,
the BIOS can be extracted and disassembled with acpidump
and iasl as documented in the pmtools package here:

What: ACPI procfs interface
When: July 2007
Why: After ACPI sysfs conversion, ACPI attributes will be duplicated
