Subject: [PATCH] /sys/firmware/efi/systab giving incorrect value for smbios
Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2006 18:00:18 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060304180018.GA3695@srcf.ucam.org> (raw)

On my Intel imac, /sys/firmware/efi/systab is the following:

ACPI20=0x1fefd014
ACPI=0x1fefd000
SMBIOS=0x9fec9000

if I have a kernel with a 2:2 user/kernel split, and

SMBIOS=0x5fec9000

if I have a kernel with a 3:1 split. The correct value is 0x1fec9000, 
which is what the kernel prints at boot time. The following trivial 
patch seems to fix things.
