ACPI tables update procedure as described bios-tables-test.c looks more or less reasonable to me (heavily biased view) for someone else to follow. It shouldn't be 'trial an error'. If something is unclear in the process, lets improve description (while your mind is still not poisoned by knowledge how it works). Here is latest patches that one can use as a model for changing ACPI tables. 45d9d318c8 tests: acpi: x86: whitelist expected blobs 44d975ef34 x86: acpi: workaround Windows not handling name references in Package properly 6e510855a9 tests: acpi: x86: update expected blobs > Since CRB ACPI tests are not enabled right now you can add these patches > somewhere in the middle of > the series or also at the end. > > > I hope this helps. > > Stefan >
