Jonathan reports that the strict policy for memory mapped by the ACPI core breaks the use case of passing ACPI table overrides via initramfs. This is due to the fact that the memory type used for loading the initramfs in memory is not recognized as a memory type that is typically used by firmware to pass firmware tables. Since the purpose of the strict policy is to ensure that no AML or other ACPI code can manipulate any memory that is used by the kernel to keep its internal state or the state of user tasks, we can relax the permission check, and allow mappings of memory that is reserved and marked as NOMAP via memblock, and therefore not covered by the linear mapping to begin with.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
