Here is version 2 of the SFI patch series for Linux 2.6.32. This series is based on 2.6.31-rc2, and is available in git: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-sfi-2.6.git sfi-test We've tried to respond to all feedback on the v1 series. In particular, thanks to Ingo Molnar and Andi Kleen for their thorough review. We followed Andi's advice and deleted the data structure to track tables, and instead we access all table headers in-place. Indeed, this shrunk the memory footprint a bit. We also now detect and optimize for the common case where all SFI tables fit on a single page. We added some small bits from the upcoming draft of SFI 0.7, which should be available on http://simplefirmware.org shortly. Of note, we can assert that the SYST shall not cross a 4K boundary.

(eg. the PCI MCFG) using sfi_acpi_table_parse(). Note that this is _not_ a hybrid ACPI + SFI mode. The platform boots in either ACPI mode or SFI mode. SFI runs only with acpi_disabled=1, which can be set at build-time via CONFIG_ACPI=n, or at boot time by the failure to find ACPI platform support. So this extension simply allows SFI-platforms to re-use existing standard table formats that happen to be defined to live in ACPI envelopes.

The primary API is sfi_table_parse(), where a driver or another part of the kernel can supply a handler to parse the named table. sfi.h also includes the currently defined table signatures and table formats.

SFI is used only when ACPI is not available 2. Today's SFI systems are not legacy PC-compatible ie. "sfi=off" on an ACPI-platform is a NO-OP, and "sfi=off" on an SFI-platform will likely result in boot failure.
