6/* The linuxbios table information is for conveying information
7 * from the firmware to the loaded OS image. Primarily this
8 * is expected to be information that cannot be discovered by
9 * other means, such as quering the hardware directly.
10 *
11 * All of the information should be Position Independent Data.
12 * That is it should be safe to relocated any of the information
13 * without it's meaning/correctnes changing. For table that
14 * can reasonably be used on multiple architectures the data
15 * size should be fixed. This should ease the transition between
16 * 32 bit and 64 bit architectures etc.
17 *
18 * The completeness test for the information in this table is:
19 * - Can all of the hardware be detected?
20 * - Are the per motherboard constants available?
21 * - Is there enough to allow a kernel to run that was written before
22 * a particular motherboard is constructed? (Assuming the kernel
23 * has drivers for all of the hardware but it does not have
24 * assumptions on how the hardware is connected together).
25 *
26 * With this test it should be straight forward to determine if a
27 * table entry is required or not. This should remove much of the
28 * long term compatibility burden as table entries which are
29 * irrelevant or have been replaced by better alternatives may be
30 * dropped. Of course it is polite and expidite to include extra
31 * table entries and be backwards compatible, but it is not required.

49 * forward compatibility with records not yet defined.
