[PATCH, RFC 34/62] acpi/hmat: Determine existence of an ACPI HMAT

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

 



From: Alison Schofield <alison.schofield@xxxxxxxxx>

Platforms that need to confirm the presence of an HMAT table
can use this function that simply reports the HMATs existence.

This is added in support of the Multi-Key Total Memory Encryption
(MKTME), a feature on future Intel platforms. These platforms will
need to confirm an HMAT is present at init time.
