Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR TPS Operating System Boot, Sleep, and Wake
Revision 1.0

Provide ACPI table support
As described in the ACPI specifications, an ACPI-aware operating system generates an SMI.
The SMI requests that the system be switched into ACPI mode. The BIOS responds completing
the following actions:
Configuring the system as required to support ACPI,
Issuing the appropriate command to the BMC to enable ACPI mode
Setting the SCI_EN bit as defined by the ACPI specification
The system automatically returns to legacy mode after hard reset or power-on reset.
The BIOS supports the Interrupt 15h, Function E820h system memory map interface as
described in the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification, Revision 3.0. The
memory used for the ACPI tables is marked as “reserved” in the memory map to prevent
memory use conflicts with a non-ACPI-aware operating system.
The primary role of the ACPI BIOS is to supply the ACPI tables. The BIOS creates the ACPI
tables during POST. The RSDP table is located in the F000h segment in compliance with the
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification, Revision 3.0 with all other tables in
extended memory (above 1 MB).
The BIOS supports the following the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification,
Revision 2.0, July 2000 and the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification,
Revision 3.0 tables:
