The main code is ported from smbios.c in IA32. I corrected
some info in
it for IPF, maybe something in it is not suitable for IPF
but I didn't
find issue in my test

Hi,

you can't create a table in the Bds module.  Its memory will
be reclaim
before the OS is booted.  Put your code into XenACPI as it
is a RT (runtime)
module.

Really!? I doubt it. I think AllocateRuntimePool() will
allcoate memory for runtime but not boot time.
I ever used "dmidecode" of linux and see the
address of table is same as I allcoated
