According to ACPI 6.2 Specification - Errata A, 'One,
and only one, GIC distributor structure must be present
in the MADT for an ARM based system'. Therefore,
the GIC Distributor ID field in the ACPI MADT GICD
substructure can be set to zero and there is no need
for the Configuration Manager to provide this information.
Update the CM_ARM_GICD_INFO structure to remove the GicId
field. Similarly update the MADT Generator to set the GicId
field in the GICD substructure to zero.

GIC ITS, Performance Monitoring counters etc. and generates
the IORT table.
The mappings between the components are represented using
tokens. The generator invokes the configuration manager
protocol interfaces and requests for objects referenced by
tokens to establish the link.
This table data is then used by the Table Manager to install
the IORT table.
The Table Manager then invokes the generator interface to free
any resources allocated by the IORT table generator.

for generating the firmware tables. This information is

The configuration manager objects provides a convenient

for generating the firmware tables. This information is
represented in the form of objects, which are classified
as standard namespace objects, Arm namespace objects or
as Custom/OEM namespace objects.
This patch introduces the definitions for standard
namespace objects.

A Table generator is a component that implements the logic
for building a firmware table. This is typically implemented
as a library and registers itself with a table factory.
Table generators are further classified based on type of table
it generates, a namespace that signifies if the implementation
is standard or an OEM specific implementation and a table Id.
This patch introduces the definitions used for describing a
table generator.

The dynamic tables framework is designed to generate standardised
firmware tables that describe the hardware information at
run-time. A goal of standardised firmware is to have a common
firmware for a platform capable of booting both Windows and Linux
operating systems.
Traditionally the firmware tables are handcrafted using ACPI
Source Language (ASL), Table Definition Language (TDL) and
C-code. This approach can be error prone and involves time
consuming debugging.
In addition, it may be desirable to configure platform hardware
at runtime such as: configuring the number of cores available
for use by the OS, or turning SoC features ON or OFF.
This patch introduces Dynamic Tables Framework which also provides
mechanisms to reduce the amount of effort required in porting
firmware to new platforms. A more detailed description is in
the Readme.md file.
