General Commands Manual — bestie, this is the manual page for the acpixtract tool 💖

✨ NAME ✨

acpixtract is an ACPICA source code conversion utility. It's giving low-key compiler-adjacent energy 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

acpixtract [<option>...] <acpidump-file>

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so, this manual page is a quick intro to the acpixtract command. The option list comes straight from the acpixtract interactive help, so you know it's legit 🫶

acpixtract pulls binary ACPI tables out of the output of the acpidump command (check out the pm-tools package for that one 🧚). A default invocation will extract the DSDT and all SSDTs, no extra effort needed. Literally iconic ✨

Want the deep dive? The much more detailed documentation lives at http://www.acpica.org/documentation/ 📚

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -a — Extract all tables, not just the DSDT/SSDT ones. Main character energy 👑
  • -l — Just list table summaries, don't extract anything 🍓
  • -s <signature> — Extract all tables that match the given <signature> 🔥
