Changes since v1: * rebase on top of current master due to a lots of conflicts with 'qtest global' removal being merged first * drop explicit cast to uint8_t* as sdt->aml is uint8_t* now * drop not comment explaining strange offsets as offsets are now follow ACPI spec
While working on adding tests for virt/arm board (uefi/XSDT/64-bit table pointers), I found it's rather difficult to deal with mixed ACPI testing code that we've collected so far. So instead of just adding a pile of XSDT hacks on top, here goes small refactoring series: * that removes dead code * replaces reading tables with a fetch per table everywhere instead of mix of field by field and whole table * consolidates the way tables are read (reduces code duplication) * test no longer depends on ACPI structures from QEMU (i.e. doesn't affected by mistakes there) * fixes FACS not being compared against reference tables Overall test is reduced on ~160LOC and hopefully it makes easier to follow and add more stuff on top. PS: arm/virt test patches fill follow up a separate series on top of this one for not to mix things up Git tree for testing: https://github.com/imammedo/qemu acpi_tests_cleanup_v2 CC: "Michael S.
