This patch is not specific to ARM architecturally, but it is specific to the ARM ecosystem / community. I'm unaware of another platform (that would affect edk2 ATM anyway) where such a conflict in beliefs has not been sorted out for years. The somewhat speculative generality in the naming (i.e., Edkii prefix rather than Arm) is there only because I understand that DT / libfdt is used on other platforms as well, and I expect once those see UEFI (and edk2) enablement & porting, the same DT vs. ACPI conflict in Linux space will extend to those platforms as well. IOW, at the moment the patch is specific to ARM, it is not random, but it could change in the future. And, I wouldn't like to force client modules to rename the GUID at that time. > MdeModulePkg? Not a bad idea, but the point of this approach was to avoid touching core modules. If we modify MdeModulePkg *logic* (as opposed to the trivial typo fix elsewhere in this series), then the simplest solution is to just add a dynamic PCD to MdeModulePkg.dec, which forces AcpiTableDxe to exit immediately with EFI_ABORTED or EFI_UNSUPPORTED. As I mentioned earlier, PcdAcpiS3Enable had been introduced very similarly to this. It controls partial or full functionality of several DXE drivers: 11a291a4d279 MdeModulePkg: Introduce new PCD PcdAcpiS3Enable a1726e308903 OvmfPkg: Set PcdAcpiS3Enable according to QemuFwCfgS3Enabled() 125e09387641 MdeModulePkg S3SaveStateDxe: Consume PcdAcpiS3Enable to control the code e96708de8837 IntelFrameworkModulePkg AcpiS3SaveDxe: Consume PcdAcpiS3Enable to control the code d2d38610603f MdeModulePkg SmmS3SaveStateDxe: Consume PcdAcpiS3Enable to control the code 800c02fbe2da MdeModulePkg BootScriptExecutorDxe: Consume PcdAcpiS3Enable to control the code ca98f6038294 UefiCpuPkg/CpuS3DataDxe: Consume PcdAcpiS3Enable to control the code b10d5ddc0385 UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm: Consume PcdAcpiS3Enable to control the code If the AcpiTableDxe maintainers aren't opposed to another dynamic PCD like PcdAcpiS3Enable -- but in this case for controlling AcpiTableDxe -- then I'm fine with it too. ... I knew that new PCDs in MdeModulePkg needed strong justification, so I figured I'd try another route first.
