What is a Dsdt table?
DSDT (Differentiated System Description Table) is a part of the ACPI specification. It supplies information about supported power events in a given system. ACPI tables are provided in firmware from the manufacturer. Basically a DSDT table is the code run on ACPI (Power Management) events.
Where is Dsdt stored?
The DSDT is the largest and most important table because this is where the motherboard devices are described. As the DSDT, along with other ACPI tables, is stored in the BIOS only on-board hardware is described.
What is BIOS ACPI?
ACPI is an acronym that stands for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface, a power management specification developed by Intel, Microsoft, and Toshiba. In addition to providing power management, ACPI also evolves the existing Plug and Play BIOS (PnP BIOS) to make adding and configuring new hardware devices easier.
How do I find the ACPI path?
Finding the ACPI path Finding the ACPI pathing is quite easy actually, first open your decompiled DSDT you got from Dumping the DSDT and Decompiling and Compiling with either MaciASL(if in macOS) or any other text editor if in Windows or Linux(VSCode has an ACPI extension that can also help).
How do I apply a Dsdt patch?

Do you need DSDT override for root bridge?
Windows OS honors the root bridge definition and will allocate PCIe devices within it. macOS ignores the root bridge constraints as too does Linux when booted with the ‘pci=noCRS’ parameter. Neither of those OS require a DSDT override and can allocate freely in the huge 64-bit PCIe address space.
