I tried tables.diff and high_low.diff. The patch was somehow rejected and I had patched them manually. The kernel still reports ACPI table error.
Please check it. And, it would be best for me if the patches based on the latest version are provided. Zheng -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Myles Watson Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2009 6:02 AM To: coreboot Subject: [coreboot] [PATCH] Table code cleanup I didn't understand what was going on in tables.c, and it seemed a little fragile. These three patches try to help that out. I would only recommend the first two, but all three is closer to maintaining the functionality we had. When you're reviewing, it will be helpful to note that rom_tables_* == LOW_TABLES, high_tables_* == HIGH_TABLES, and low_tables== coreboot-specific very low tables. These patches are abuild tested and boot tested on Tyan s2892, qemu, and SimNOW. tables.diff: Add comments. Remove ACPI-specific code. Align low_table_end after gdt (so it matches high_table_end). Correct "New low_table_end..." line in coreboot_table.c. high_low.diff: Factor out common code for writing tables. both.diff: If we need to have the tables written both times we can do something like this.
