[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1533848] [NEW] A workaround for Windows 7 ACPI SLIC table behavior when used with OVMF

[Aleksei Kovura]

Public bug reported:

When OVMF is used, Windows 7 refuses to read SLIC ACPI table, passed via
-acpitable option, because it expects oem id and oem table id to match
in SLIC, XSDT, RSDT, FADT. There's a detailed discussion here:
