A5.4.1 Comply with ACPI 2.0
For an Itanium-based system in which more than one processor can be installed, the system must employ those processors symmetrically; that is, all processors must be able to access all I/O buses and system memory, and cache coherency must be maintained. The system must also comply with the ACPI 2.0 specification.
To comply with this requirement, implement the ACPI 1.0b backward-compatible portion of ACPI 2.0, plus the 64-bit fixed tables. The fixed tables that must be supported include:
-
RSDP Structure
-
Extended System Description Table (XSDT)
-
Fixed ACPI Description Table (FADT)
-
Firmware ACPI Control Structure (FACS)
-
Multiple APIC Description Table (MADT)
Itanium-based platforms must use the new Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) GUID for the ACPI 2.0 RSDP Structure (see Section 5.2.4.2 in ACPI 2.0).
The EFI GUID for the ACPI 2.0 RSDP Structure pointer is:
