The ACPI specification permits the _HID and _UID objects to evaluate to
strings. (See "6.1.5 _HID (Hardware ID)" and "6.1.12 _UID (Unique ID)" in
the ACPI v6.0 spec.)
With regard to related standards, the UEFI specification can also express
a device address composed from string _HID and _UID identifiers, inside
the Expanded ACPI Device Path Node. (See "9.3.3 ACPI Device Path", Table
49, in the UEFI v2.5 spec.)
However, numeric (integer) contents for both _HID and _UID are more
traditional. They are recommended by the UEFI spec for size reasons:
[...] the ACPI Device Path node is smaller and should be used if
possible to reduce the size of device paths that may potentially be
stored in nonvolatile storage [...]
External tools support them better (for example the --acpi_hid and
--acpi_uid options of "efibootmgr" only take numeric identifiers).
Finally, numeric _HID and _UID contents are existing practice in the QEMU
source.
This patch was tested with a Fedora 20 LiveCD and a preexistent Windows
Server 2012 R2 guest. Using "acpidump" and "iasl" in the Fedora guest, we
get, in the SSDT:
> Scope (\_SB)
> {
> Device (PC04)
> {
> Name (_UID, 0x04) // _UID: Unique ID
> Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0A03") /* PCI Bus */) // _HID: Hardware ID
