All of the changes to FreeBSD that have not already been committed to the tree are freely available at the following URL:

https://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/

Specifically, there are three patches of interest in that directory. The first two patches are for the backport of ACPI to 4.7-RELEASE and 4.8-RELEASE and are contained in the files acpi_4.7.patch and acpi_4.8.patch, respectively. In addition to those patches, the following files and directories must be checked out from the 5.x branch on top of an appropriate kernel source tree:

• sys/contrib/dev/acpica
• sys/dev/acpica
• sys/i386/acpica
• sys/i386/include/acpica_machdep.h
• sys/i386/isa/pmtimer.c
• sys/kern/subr_power.c
• sys/sys/power.h

The other patch is in the file sio_shareirq.patch and includes the changes to fix the sio driver to share interrupts with other PCI devices.
