From b2a35003dfbcc7b7a5e5c6e524e7d49ba66e0bb5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Renninger Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2012 00:23:55 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: Implement physical address table override Previous patches stored ACPI tables provided via initrd in a memblock reserved area. If a table is loaded and the table type of an initrd provided one matches, the one from initrd is prefered. In case of a SSDT table, the OEM table id also has to match. ACPI tables can be loaded at boot time (static table pointers in XSDT), but also dynamically any time later via ASL commands load() or loadTable(). The override mechanism always works.
