The PPTT generator uses the configuration manager protocol to
obtain information about platform's processor topology and caches.
This data is then used to generate the PPTT table.
The table generator supports ACPI 6.3, PPTT table revision 2.
The dynamic PPTT generator also carries out extensive input
validation which includes cycle detection and MADT-PPTT
cross-validation. A number of architectural compliance checks
are also performed.

The dynamic tables frameworks core communicates with the
platform specific implementation using the configuration
manager protocol interface. The dynamic tables framework
core uses this interface to retrieve information required
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.
The configuration manager objects provides a convenient
way for wrapping up the namespaces using a well defined
configuration manager object Id.
The configuration manager is a platform specific component
that collates the platform information required for generating
firmware tables and represents them as configuration manager
objects.
