Subject: Patch: Make ACPI subsystem provide CEDT table
Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2022 02:15:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a20337bb-9e83-e387-7d10-a2843f7286b3@boldcoder.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <82f254a1-c765-0a87-f017-8c07c8ef07cd@boldcoder.com>

This is a simple ACPI patch. I'm submitting a revised version to 
linux-acpi per Rafael Wysocki and linux-cxl per Dan Williams.

Thunderbird has added CRs so "patch -p1 -l" is needed.

==== start of patch ====
Subject: Make ACPI subsystem provide CEDT table
Signed-off-by: Robert Kiraly <me@boldcoder.com>

This is a simple patch to the ACPI subsystem. The patch adds ACPI
_SIG_CEDT to table_sigs[] in  "drivers/acpi/tables.c".

Presently,  CXL code isn't able to make use of the  CEDT table at
the initrd stage. Subsequent to the change, the CEDT table can be
used.

If  a developer  plans to use the CEDT table to  program  the CXL
ports,  this change is needed.  Otherwise,  it isn't  expected to
make a difference.

I certify  compliance with  Developer’s Certificate of Origin 1.1
as listed in:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.10/process/submitting-patches.
