You do want the SMBIOS stuff to be cross architecture, right? If so, keeping the code as-is seems to make the most sense to me. > How about changing the commit log to the following? > > riscv: obtain ACPI RSDP from devicetree. > > On RISC-V, when using Coreboot to start, since Coreboot only supports > DTS but not EFI, and > RISC-V does not have a reserved address segment. > When the system enables ACPI, ACPI RSDP needs to be passed through DTS I would probably write something like: On RISC-V, Coreboot does not support booting using EFI, only devicetree nor does RISC-V have a reserved address segment. To allow using Coreboot on platforms that require ACPI, the ACPI RSDP needs to be passed to supervisor mode software using devicetree. Add support for parsing the "configtbls" devicetree node to find the ACPI entry point and use wire up acpi_arch_get_root_pointer().

What I meant is that variables & functions in /arch/riscv are often prefixed with riscv_. I was saying that you could change "arch_acpi_rsdp" to "riscv_acpi_rsdp". Thanks, Conor.
