Recent qemu versions compose all ACPI tables on the host side, according
to the target hardware configuration, and make the tables available to any
guest firmware over fw_cfg.
See version compatibility information below.
The feature moves the burden of keeping ACPI tables up-to-date from boot
firmware to qemu (which is the source of hardware configuration anyway).
This patch adds client code for this feature. Benefits of the
qemu-provided ACPI tables include PCI hotplug for example.
Qemu provides the following three fw_cfg files:
- etc/acpi/rsdp
- etc/acpi/tables
- etc/table-loader
"etc/acpi/rsdp" and "etc/acpi/tables" are similar, they are only kept
separate because they have different allocation requirements in SeaBIOS.
Both of these fw_cfg files contain preformatted ACPI payload.
"etc/acpi/rsdp" contains only the RSDP table, while "etc/acpi/tables"
contains all other tables, concatenated.
The tables in these two fw_cfg files are filled in by qemu, but two kinds
of fields are left incomplete in each table: pointers to other tables, and
checksums (which depend on the pointers).
Qemu initializes each pointer with a relative offset into the fw_cfg file
that contains the pointed-to ACPI table. The final pointer values depend
on where the fw_cfg files, holding the pointed-to ACPI tables, will be
placed in memory by the guest. That is, the pointer fields need to be
"relocated" (incremented) by the base addresses of where "/etc/acpi/rsdp"
and "/etc/acpi/tables" will be placed in guest memory.
This is where the third file, "/etc/table-loader" comes in the picture. It
is a linker/loader script that has several command types:
One command type instructs the guest to download the other two files.
Another command type instructs the guest to increment ("absolutize") a
pointer field (having a relative initial value) in the pointing ACPI
table, present in some fw_cfg file, with the dynamic base address of the
same (or another) fw_cfg file, holding the pointed-to ACPI table.
The third command type instructs the guest to compute checksums over
ranges and to store them.
In edk2, EFI_ACPI_TABLE_PROTOCOL knows about table relationships -- it
handles linkage automatically when a table is installed. The protocol
takes care of checksumming too. RSDP is installed automatically. Hence we
only need to care about the "etc/acpi/tables" fw_cfg file, determining the
boundaries of each ACPI table inside it, and installing those tables.

Notes:
changes in v4:
- reword commit message to warn against the (1.7.0, pc-i440fx-1.7) pair
more prominently [Jordan]
- replace Func with __FUNCTION__ in debug messages [Jordan]
- log table signature and length from the header probe only after
EFI_PROTOCOL_ERROR isn't possible for it any more (ie. after the
header passes all checks)
- recognize and accept trailing NULs in fw_cfg contents (therefore the
function can now return EFI_PROTOCOL_ERROR too, for non-NUL trailing
garbage) [Jordan]
