The x86 Chromebooks have the ChromeOS ACPI device. This driver attaches to the ChromeOS ACPI device and exports the values reported by ACPI in a sysfs directory. This data isn't present in ACPI tables when read through ACPI tools, hence a driver is needed to do it. The driver gets data from firmware using the ACPI component of the kernel. The ACPI values are presented in string form (numbers as decimal values) or binary blobs, and can be accessed as the contents of the appropriate read only files in the standard ACPI device's sysfs directory tree. This data is consumed by the ChromeOS user space.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
