[RFC PATCH v2 2/4] acpi: fadt: support revision 6.0 of the ACPI specific


From: Miguel Luis
Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 2/4] acpi: fadt: support revision 6.0 of the ACPI specification
Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2022 13:22:58 +0000

Update the Fixed ACPI Description Table (FADT) to revision 6.0 of the ACPI
specification adding the field "Hypervisor Vendor Identity" that was missing.

This field's description states the following: "64-bit identifier of hypervisor
vendor. All bytes in this field are considered part of the vendor identity.
These identifiers are defined independently by the vendors themselves,
usually following the name of the hypervisor product. Version information
should NOT be included in this field - this shall simply denote the vendor's
name or identifier. Version information can be communicated through a
supplemental vendor-specific hypervisor API. Firmware implementers would
place zero bytes into this field, denoting that no hypervisor is present in
the actual firmware."

Hereupon, what should a valid identifier of an Hypervisor Vendor ID be and
where should QEMU provide that information?

On the v1 [1] of this RFC there's the suggestion of having this information
in sync by the current acceleration name. This also seems to imply that QEMU,
which generates the FADT table, and the FADT consumer need to be in sync with
the values of this field.

This version follows Ani Sinha's suggestion [2] of using "QEMU" for the
hypervisor vendor ID.
