ABSTRACT:
Methods and computer systems provide updating of device configuration information in a DSDT of a BIOS for a computer system. Because the device configuration information can be changed, this information is determined upon boot-up of the computer system. The determined device configuration information such as the device number, function number, and/or bus number is then updated in the DSDT table at an appropriate entry for the device rather than having the device configuration information be pre-defined when the DSDT is developed.
