Compiling ACPI v2.0 driver for Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 SP2 (x32/x64)

**Dietmar** · April 6, 2023

@UsefulAGKHelper

Here is brandnew acpi.sys for XP bit64,

with hack against BSOD 0x7E(c0000005, ...) error in AcpiArbCrackPRT() when referencing null pointer

@Dietmar Can you prepare “patch” for source code?

Or @Mov AX, 0xDEAD?

I would like to build latest ones with some other modifications that I do.

I need both 2003 and XP source code patches a I need to compile all 3 for all systems.

**Dietmar** · April 6, 2023

@George King

The Source Code here in the beginning of the thread is build from @Mov AX, 0xDEAD .

Some more I have, but not all. And the last hacks for AcpiArbCrackPRT() I think, he does not like.

But they work

I would like to include it in new XP2ESD which was brutally delayed due my personal issues.

+- in 2 weeks or similar.

@Dietmar Does your compiled files contains _OSI tweak in type2op? I have updated code I got from this topic with two new values from decompiled Windows 11 ACPI.

    // Add future OS strings here.

    char* SupportedOSList[] = {

                                };

Can you please compile your latest source code mod for all three (5.1 x86, 5.2 x86, 5.2 x64) versions with this tweak included?

@George King

There has much more changed in Source Code.

And also some new hacks.

So, until now you can use only my acpi.sys which I send from here

Yeah, I expect many changes. That why I asked if you can add into your source mentioned OSI tweak (I can see then TPM devices, dual GPUs etc). and compile it for me instead sharing current source

Of cource I grabbed your 5.1 x86 and 5.2 x64 ACPI files from XP2ESD topic and here. But 5.2 x86 is still missing. So I hope you can do that instead creating SourceSode patches

@George King

The from Sources 2003 build acpi.sys 5.2 bit32 is much more instable than the acpi.sys from Sources for XP SP1,2,3.

So, after some talk in messages, I changed the Source Code from the acpi.sys for XP SP1, that now it supports to full(?) the acpi.sys 5.2 bit32

Dietmar

PS: All acpi.sys contains now the OS fakes, that you mentioned.

@George King

here is the original acpi.sys 5.2 bit32 with all the OS Fakes, build from my last Sources 2003

And here is the hacked version of acpi.sys 2003 5.2 bit32

@Dietmar Thanks! I’m going to add new option into XP2ESD to allow suppressing these know BSODs as patch. Similar to other HEX patches. I would like to avoid manual patching of compiled files

That is interesting, but I think there's much better topic to talk about modern Chromium-based browser for Windows XP.

Hi @Mov AX, 0xDEAD!

Any news on v8 update?

Hi @George King

as i wrote before, comparing w2003 kernel headers is too boring, so pre-v8 has only multi-thread "ssdt loading" race condition workaround:

patched code uses KeGetCurrentThread()->Affinity, on x64 _KTHREAD structure has WRK(SP1) definition and ->Affinity mismatch with x64 SP2 kernels, need update header:

ke.h:

w2003 wrk:

Quote

    PKTRAP_FRAME TrapFrame;
    PVOID CallbackStack;
    PVOID ServiceTable;

#if defined(_AMD64_)

    ULONG KernelLimit;

#endif

    //
    // The following fields are referenced during ready thread and wait
    // completion.
    //

    UCHAR ApcStateIndex;
    UCHAR IdealProcessor;
    BOOLEAN Preempted;
    BOOLEAN ProcessReadyQueue;

#if defined(_AMD64_)

    PVOID Win32kTable;
    ULONG Win32kLimit;

#endif

SP2 actual:

Quote

    PKTRAP_FRAME TrapFrame;
    PVOID CallbackStack;

#if defined(_AMD64_)

    //PVOID ServiceTable;
    //ULONG KernelLimit;
#else

    PVOID ServiceTable;

#endif

    //
    // The following fields are referenced during ready thread and wait
    // completion.
    //

    UCHAR ApcStateIndex;
    UCHAR IdealProcessor;
    BOOLEAN Preempted;
    BOOLEAN ProcessReadyQueue;

#if defined(_AMD64_)

    //PVOID Win32kTable;
    //ULONG Win32kLimit;

#endif

2) there is self-check, need comment all three lines because we don't have Win32kTable/KernelLimit/Win32kLimit on x64 SP2 anymore:

Quote

C_ASSERT((FIELD_OFFSET(KTHREAD, ServiceTable) + 16) == FIELD_OFFSET(KTHREAD, Win32kTable));
C_ASSERT((FIELD_OFFSET(KTHREAD, ServiceTable) + 8) == FIELD_OFFSET(KTHREAD, KernelLimit));
C_ASSERT((FIELD_OFFSET(KTHREAD, Win32kTable) + 8) == FIELD_OFFSET(KTHREAD, Win32kLimit));
