Beth,
I think you had a patch attempting to address the same issue. It was
a bit more involved though.
Which is the proper fix and are they both to the same problem?
They are for 2 different bases. My patch was for qemu's bochs bios and
this is for qemu-kvm/kvm/bios/rombios32.c. They are pretty divergent in
this area of setting up the ACPI tables. My patch is still needed for
the qemu base. I hope we'll be getting to one base soon :-)
Assuming the intent of the code was for MAX_RSDT_ENTRIES to include
external_tables, this patch looks correct. I think one additional check
would be needed (in my patch) to make sure that the code doesn't exceed
MAX_RSDT_ENTRIES when the external tables are being loaded.
My patch also puts all the code that calculates madt_size in the same
place, at the beginning of the table layout. I believe this is neater
and will avoid problems like this one in the future. As much as
possible, I think it best to get all the tables layed out, then fill
them in. If for some reason this is not acceptable, we need to add a big
note that no tables should be layed out after the madt because the madt
may grow further down in the code and overwrite the other table.
I like this better too, see questions/comments below.
Regards,
Anthony Liguori

This bug could only affect the HPET descriptor right?
I'm not sure what you're asking. There were 2 bugs that Vincent pointed
out. The first caused an incorrect rsdt_size to be reported, and the
second (missing addr += sizeof(struct madt_int_override)) caused
corruption of whatever came after the MADT. But even if his patch were
applied, any future code that added a table and manipulated addr between
the following points:
...
(about line 1676)
madt = (void *)(addr);
addr += madt_size;
...
(about line 1789)
madt_size += sizeof(struct madt_int_override);
addr += sizeof(struct madt_int_override);
would have wound up causing some kind of corruption, as happened with
the HPET. Also the "memset(madt, 0, madt_size)" around line 1740 was not
using the complete madt_size.
So this seems undesirable, and that's why I suggested moving all addr
manipulation (with the exception of additional tables at the very end)
to the same section of the table layout code. Seems best to manage
madt_size all in one place.

The external ACPI tables fix(es) are logically separate from the MADT
intoverride size calculation, and so they could be separate patches?
Yes that's true.
