Hardware information parser is an optional module defined by the Dynamic Tables Framework. It can either parse an XML, a Device Tree or a Json file containing the platform hardware information to populate the platform information repository. FdtHwInfoParser library is an instance of a HwInfoParser that parses a Device Tree and populates the Configuration Manager Platform information repository. FdtHwInfoParser library is aimed at providing a solution for generating ACPI tables for Guest Partitions launched by virtual machine managers (VMMs). One such use case is Kvmtool where the Device Tree for the Guest is passed on to the firmware by Kvmtool. The Configuration Manager for Kvmtool firmware shall invoke the FdtHwInfoParser to parse the Device Tree to populate the hardware information in the Platform Info Repository. The Kvmtool Configuration Manager can the process this information to generate the required ACPI tables for the Guest VM. This approach also scales well if the number of CPUs or if the hardware configuration of the Guest partition is varied. FdtHwInfoParser thereby introduces 'Dynamic Tables for Virtual Machines'.
