  *
- * String conversion rules as written in the ACPI specification. The error
- * conditions and behavior are different depending on the type of conversion.
- *
- *
- * Implicit data type conversion: string-to-integer
- * --------------------------------------------------
- *
- * Base is always 16. This is the ACPI_STRTOUL_BASE16 case.
- *
- * Example:
- *      Add ("BA98", Arg0, Local0)
- *
- * The integer is initialized to the value zero.
- * The ASCII string is interpreted as a hexadecimal constant.
- *
- *  1)  A "0x" prefix is not allowed. However, ACPICA allows this for
- *      compatibility with previous ACPICA. (NO ERROR)
- *
- *  2)  Terminates when the size of an integer is reached (32 or 64 bits).
- *      (NO ERROR)
- *
- *  3)  The first non-hex character terminates the conversion without error.
- *      (NO ERROR)
- *
- *  4)  Conversion of a null (zero-length) string to an integer is not
- *      allowed. However, ACPICA allows this for compatibility with previous
- *      ACPICA. This conversion returns the value 0. (NO ERROR)
+ * This module contains the top-level string to 64/32-bit unsigned integer
+ * conversion functions:
  *
+ *  1) A standard strtoul() function that supports 64-bit integers, base
+ *     8/10/16, with integer overflow support. This is used mainly by the
+ *     iASL compiler, which implements tighter constraints on integer
+ *     constants than the runtime (interpreter) integer-to-string conversions.
+ *  2) Runtime "Explicit conversion" as defined in the ACPI specification.
+ *  3) Runtime "Implicit conversion" as defined in the ACPI specification.
  *
- * Explicit data type conversion:  ToInteger() with string operand
- * ---------------------------------------------------------------
+ * Current users of this module:
  *
- * Base is either 10 (default) or 16 (with 0x prefix)
- *
- * Examples:
- *      ToInteger ("1000")
- *      ToInteger ("0xABCD")
- *
- *  1)  Can be (must be) either a decimal or hexadecimal numeric string.
- *      A hex value must be prefixed by "0x" or it is interpreted as a decimal.
+ *  iASL        - Preprocessor (constants and math expressions)
+ *  iASL        - Main parser, conversion of constants to integers
+ *  iASL        - Data Table Compiler parser (constants and math expressions)
+ *  Interpreter - Implicit and explicit conversions, GPE method names
+ *  Interpreter - Repair code for return values from predefined names
+ *  Debugger    - Command line input string conversion
+ *  AcpiDump    - ACPI table physical addresses
+ *  AcpiExec    - Support for namespace overrides
  *
- *  2)  The value must not exceed the maximum of an integer value. ACPI spec
- *      states the behavior is "unpredictable", so ACPICA matches the behavior
- *      of the implicit conversion case.(NO ERROR)
+ * Notes concerning users of these interfaces:
  *
- *  3)  Behavior on the first non-hex character is not specified by the ACPI
- *      spec, so ACPICA matches the behavior of the implicit conversion case
- *      and terminates. (NO ERROR)
+ * AcpiGbl_IntegerByteWidth is used to set the 32/64 bit limit for explicit
+ * and implicit conversions. This global must be set to the proper width.
+ * For the core ACPICA code, the width depends on the DSDT version. For the
+ * AcpiUtStrtoul64 interface, all conversions are 64 bits. This interface is

  *
- *   Supports only base 16 or base 10 strings/values. Does not
