LAI is an interpreter for AML, the ACPI Machine Language. AML is an integral component of modern BIOS and UEFI firmware, both on x86(_64) machines and ARM servers. As an AML interpreter, LAI is used by OS kernels to implement support for ACPI.
LAI has been split up into 2 parts:
- Core, The main parser/interpreter
- Helpers, Some extra functions that help interfacing with the ACPI API
