[PATCH] ACPI: Enable FPDT on arm64

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



FPDT provides some boot timing records useful for analyzing
parts of the UEFI boot stack. Given the existing code works
on arm64, and allows reading the values without utilizing
/dev/mem it seems like a good idea to turn it on.
