Please elaborate on why. The dependency on the DSDT is a few methods (PCEJ, CPEJ, CPST, CPMA). Under what circumstances would it be difficult for these methods to be provided? > I think we should not use default SSDT if we use user supplied DSDT. > If we use user supplied DSDT, we should use user supplied SSDT too. That's possible. However, how do you plan to provide a DSDT that accounts for the dynamic nature of the virtual system configuration. A different qemu/kvm command line (which configures pci or cpu count) will then require a different DSDT. -Kevin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
