The baseline really is our internal device tree representation. Everything else should be generated from it. Non-x86 has been kept rather clean from ACPI, MP, pirq. They did not spend the time to invent the same information passing 3 times ;-) Those platforms rather offer an IEEE 1275-1994 interface (which is binary+callback, all evil combined, but it is well proven) Stefan _______________________________________________ Linuxbios mailing list Linuxbios@clustermatic.org http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
