I notice in my host machine, the two tables are the same:
[17:38:11] cfan@localhost /home/cfan (0)
> sudo cat /sys/firmware/efi/systab
[sudo] password for cfan:
MPS=0xfd420
ACPI20=0xdb807000
ACPI=0xdb807000
SMBIOS=0xf04c0
But in my qemu guest, they are different and the address of ACPI20 is
higher than ACPI 1.0:
[root@localhost ~]# cat /sys/firmware/efi/systab
ACPI20=0xbfbfa014
ACPI=0xbfbfa000
SMBIOS=0xbfbcc000
In this condition, ACPI 1.0 comes before ACPI 2.0. So I suggested you
to keep this logical.
Thanks,
