ACPI Warnings SystemIO conflicts with region ..

...
I get this messages from my kernel

I wonder if it has anything to do I have a double video card. In fact, I have a discrete ATI HD5450 video card that I use with two monitor
and of course an integrated video card in the processor (a intel celeron g1610) ...
I doesn't seem to be any problem with video (I use catalyst) or xserver but it is just a bit annoying ...

No.

It's some driver being denied access to devices used by ACPI, probably SuperIO sensors or SMBus controller. If you don't need control over these devices or don't even know what they are - ignore it. If you do, booting with acpi_enforce_resources=lax will enable this driver at the cost of possible problems with ACPI-based power management.

Just wondering .... what device could it use
SuperIO sensors or SMBus controller?

However thanks.

Re: ACPI Warnings SystemIO conflicts with region ..

the easy way to fix this shit is to

blacklist pcspkr
blacklist lpc_ich
blacklist gpio-ich

in /lib/modprobe.d

Thanks a lot for that information. That helps here as well.

In addition, it is necessary to

blacklist it87

This driver throws an error similar to the ones discussed here:

[    3.104855] ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000000A35-0x0000000000000A36 conflicts with OpRegion 0x0000000000000A35-0x0000000000000A36 (\IP) (20200925/utaddress-204)

This bug is known since 2015.

Re: ACPI Warnings SystemIO conflicts with region ..

It's a warning that doesn't even point to an actual issue and you are potentially breaking expected functionality by blacklisting drivers the system has determined to be potentially useful. (... Case in point, it87 is necessary for a lot of hardware sensor information, I'm not going to drop that information just to hide a warning)

Don't break your systems over warnings if they don't have an inherent effect on system stability. Warnings aren't errors. They are unlikely to be any form of issue in the context that you get them in.

In any case please don't necrobump 8 year old threads.

Closing.
