Instead of port and endpoint properties for representing ports and endpoints, use the keys of the hierarchical data extension references when referring to the port and endpoint nodes. Additionally, use "reg" properties as in Device Tree to specify the number of the port or the endpoint. The keys of the port nodes begin with "port" and the keys of the endpoint nodes begin with "endpoint", both followed by "@" character and the number of the port or the endpoint. These changes have the advantage that no ACPI specific properties need to be added to refer to non-device nodes. Additionally, using the name of the node instead of an integer property inside the node is easier to parse in code and easier for humans to understand.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
