Xen devel - May 2008 - Porting Bochs bios to Xen/hvmloader?

Hello,

I found out what the problem in my other thread was, now I need to solve
it: I need to port a modified Bochs bios to Xen x86.
However, a file of the original source seems missing: acpi-dsdt.hex.
It''s neither in the tools/firmware/hvmloader/acpi directory nor in the
tools/firmware/rombios one. Also applying the diffs or manually editing
the source probably won''t work since the bios included in the Xen soure
seems to be a modified Bochs bios.
Can anyone of you what has been changed and help me to port the bios I
need?

acpi-dsdt.hex appears to be the ASL compiler generated output file for
the DSDT table in Bochs.  You could get that file from here -

http://bochs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/lxr/source/bios/

If you are looking for the Xen equivalent of that you might want to look
for dsdt.c under tools/firmware/hvmloader/acpi.  Readme is the same
directory is also helpful.
